Yesterday was the 1st annual Alger Heights neighborhood 5k! My mom joined me and we walked, in the rain. When she showed up at 8:15 yesterday morning, it was pouring. She says, "You know, I wouldn't do this for just anyone!" Then she said it was to stop raining and we'd be fine. Sure enough, it did and we had a blast. I sure do have the greatest mom in the world! People dressed up in costumes and it was an overall great time. Looking forward to doing it again next year, although I'd like to run it. We finished in 50 minutes, not bad for walking. Jamey greeted us at the finish line and cheered us on through the finish line, it was so nice to see my hubby waiting for us at the end!
As for the rest of our Halloween, it was pretty typical. I've never been that big on Halloween itself. It was fun as a kid but now I'm just indifferent to the whole thing. We passed out candy and the classic trick or treater this year was a girl who came to the door, dressed up at least, but on her cell phone. She told ME to "hold on a sec" while she finished her story. I laughed and then she said trick or treat, I gave her a jolly rancher, yep, just one. Sorry folks, but that barely deserved that lil' ole piece of candy!
Here are a couple pictures from the 5K event yesterday!
