After Thanksgiving Tradition

We usually spend the Friday after Thanksgiving getting ready for Christmas. I went out very early that day and got most of my shopping done, came home, cleaned and decorated the house for Christmas. Busy day, but it felt good to get everything done.

On Saturday, Will and I had a date. We went out to Color Me Mine and painted some pottery (he spent most of his time on the bounce house they had for their grand opening!) We then went to lunch and finally made it home where we wrapped some presents and put them under the tree.

After the Race

After the race we walked back to the starting point (about a mile, so we got our exercise in, too!) They had refreshments for the participants and I got to take a few pics of the amazing area.

Enjoying the View

Beyond the beautiful trees in the Atlantic Intercoastal Waterway...can you see the water in the distance?

Pinecones are everywhere!! I am intrigued by them. They are beautiful when you really look at them.

Waiting for the runners

My post was down by this wooded lot - so I kept myself busy looking at the trees and scenery.

Will got inspired

At the Hilton Head Country Club - pretty there, isn't it?

He probably ended up running at least a mile anyway - he went around the roundabout 3 times and ran back and forth between where I was stationed and where Tom was at.

Turkey Trot

We all volunteered at the 19th annual Turkey Trot through the Hilton Head Plantation on Thanksgiving morning. Members of our church volunteer for the Island Recreation Center at 4 of thier events and the chuch makes money.

We got there at 6:30 am and helped direct the walkers and kids to where they needed to go. This was the first year they did a kid's 1 mile race and they made a rather large mistake. The course was actually 2.5 miles!!! No wonder the kids were exhausted - going 1.5 miles more than they thought they were going to do! And we all got cool t-shirts, too!

It was fun though - and about 30 degrees warmer than last year when I volunteered!

Ducks at the Mall

This is at the Mall in Beaufort - I like the way they keep ponds and lagoons around everywhere... makes things much more interesting.
