And what did Sam get for his birthday?

A half marathon! Three months ago I decided that in honor of Sam's 1st birthday and my 30th, I would cross a big item of my "bucket list." Three months later on Sunday, April 11th I donned my favorite pair of running pants (ok, who am I kidding- I only have one pair!), pinned on my running number and headed to the start line with 4,000 other runners. 2 hours and 10 minutes later, I crossed the finish line to applause and miles of congratulatory high-fives. It felt great to complete this goal and although Sam might have preferred a new kitchen spoon or juicy jar of Beef Bouillon, I hope that one day he understands the importance of setting a goal and working hard to achieve it.

Cheers!
