Cookie monster

We told him he had to sit at the table until he finished his cookie. Half way through, he tried getting up for some more hide and seek and wanted to take it with him.

It looks like he's finally hit that age where he thinks that it's a loophole to shove the whole thing in his mouth. Unfortunately it was a lot of cookie for a little guy.

That's the motherload in the background washing the post meal dishes.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Smoke the turkey 5k

Thanksgiving morning at 9 AM. knocked another minute off my time with this one. 26:22. There were over a thousand people participating, making the start line the biggest race crowd I've been a part of. Probably could have knocked a few more seconds off if I wasn't dodging people for the first mile.

I didn't know he was running, but apparently I passed Matt Olszewski and he followed me for a good chunk of the race and didn't say anything till the finish line. Got to see his whole family afterward. Good times :-)

I'm still gunning for that 6 minute mile!

This one is for melissa

Culvers in Red Wing Minnesota. Turtle sundae and a butter burger... mmm!
of course I don't recommend this after eating a third of a bag of cheese curds.

Falcon 5k

This was our homecoming race. My time was 27:23 and I was 2nd in my age group... of course 3rd place took over 40 minutes. I'm mostly proud of beating my previous 5K time of 29:45. I made some new friends while I was there too.
