I started running in May of 2006 while losing 85 lbs after my youngest was born.  I have 6 fantastic kids, 3 girls and 3 boys and a wonderful husband.  My oldest is in college and my baby is in pre-school. (Six kids in 5 schools ;)

This was a very surprising and NICE run!  It was great.  It felt great and I am super excited.  I ranmy 4 mole route, came home had a potty stop and some gatorade and then Kim met me and we ran our five mile route.  There was about a 3-4 minute stop at home.

Nicklaus came to our home last night.  The kids put their shoes out by the front door before bed last night.  While they slept, St. Nicklaus came and left chocolate coins, candy canes and a new version of the Night Before Christmas.  He left the boys little nutcrackers and the girls got Christmas knee highs.  I love German holiday traditions!

Have a great day!!!  XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO!!!

Nice run! So fun to read about your German Christmas tradition. Were the shoes wooden shoes? Do your kids get to hang Christmas stockings on Christmas Eve too?

Smooth- the best part about having such a mix of ethnic backgrounds is that we get to follow the best traditions of many cultures. So we get to do all of the fun German and Italian stuff and we still get to decorate like crazy Americans the moment Thanksgiving is over ;) We do wait until after thanksgiving to decorate, though!
