21 miles & pumpkin bread that will make your mom proud

We did it! I can't believe we did it, but we did! Thanks to Ross & Linnae, Rebekah and I ran 21 miles! It was hard yet so much fun all at the same time. We even have the pictures to prove it. Only one more month of training for White Rock in Dallas, and then we'll move on to Rock & Roll in New Orleans.

But really, THANK YOU ROSS & LINNAE!

(Before we started...40 degrees & dark. Terrible pic!)

(3 hours and 24 minutes after, 70 degrees...icing the legs )

(Really happy were done! Rebekah totally couldn't do this without you!)
Linnae and I had an awesome weekend together, and just made me so thankful that we are only 3 hours from each other! Just tip for those of you that go to Dallas… when going to Sam Moon have a plan, speak clearly, and if you are going to buy a hat/head wrap try it on first! We were first timers, and that would have been a good heads up. Not sure why we didn't document the trip better, but here are some pics from weekend. Linnae is better at details so check her blog out to read more about it!

(Good thing you ran with us the last half!)
I also, had to share this Pumpkin Bread recipe from the Square Table Cookbook! It's so good, and easy, it'll make yo mama proud! Plus it makes 3 loaves, that's 1 for you, 1 for your neighbor, and 1 for your mama to show her you got it! Enjoy!
