I shot this picture of my youngest daughter while we were on a boat ride along Lake Michigan in late August, 2005.

New Year ... New Goals
Welcome to 2009! After being unable to particiapte in last year's race, I registered this morning for the annual Shamrock Shuffle 8K. It's the first big race of the running season up here in Chicago and probably the largest 8K in the world. I'm excited because my goal is to train for and complete a half marathon before my 40th birthday in September. My friend Jennifer from work will be my training partner; so, that will be very helpful for the two of us. She wants to run the Chicago Marathon in October.
Today is our big New Year's Day family dinner. Darrin has to work; but, I'm busy cooking up a storm: turkey breast, ham, broccoli & cauliflower, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, stuffing, fresh cranberry sauce and gravy. I made a pumpkin pie this morning, too. It's our own tradition ... our parents and Janice come over for dinner, we give thanks to God for another year, we eat, we play games, we relax and welcome in the new year.
