I’m almost there! :0)

Well, it’s officially 14 hours until my fourth Half Marathon!  I’m at home waiting on my brother and sister in law to get here so we can leave for NOLA! :0)

I figured while I was waiting on them to arrive, I would update my blog!  Here’s a few pictures from last night’s Homecoming Parade! Our local college is playing their Homecoming game Saturday night!

They took the theme a little different way with a surfer guy!

Jane and I taking a break from picking up candy!

After the parade, we ate at a local Mexican restaurant, then went to visit our soon to be brother in law at Starbucks!  We had a great night!

Today, we had dress up day at work for Halloween! Our line of work can be VERY depressing so we like to have fun and let lose sometimes! :0)

Our crew!  Our boss on the left was Superman, the girl in purple was an LSU Tiger, I am in the middle and I was a Marathon runner (real original, huh?), the girl next to me was a McNeese Cowboy fan, and the guy on the far right is Luigi!

“The Big Nerd” came late so we had to get a picture!  He is our Radiation Physicist!

These were the only guys that would “pose” with me! Haha!

The Doctor’s response to my outfit: “You mean to tell me you ran a Marathon and all you got was a DUCK medal?!?” I had to explain that it is DONALD Duck!  :0)  After that, he fussed at me for planning on running in Disney in January again cause I got SO sick this past January after running in the crazy cold weather! 

Speaking of costumes…I’m running in one tomorrow!  It’s all runner friendly and I can’t wait to post pictures! I’m so excited about tomorrow’s Half Marathon!  It will be my sister-in-law Kayla’s first Half Marathon! I know she’s excited and I’m excited for her!!!

Besides updating my blog, I’m also watching The Princess and the Frog to get me in the NOLA mood, and I’m eating a little “pre race fuel”!  It’s a peanut butter and banana shake with Okios Greek Yogurt (it’s not chunky it has granola and almonds mixed in!) :0)
