I downloaded a new app that allows me to update the blog from my iPhone so let's cross our fingers it works so I can get the past 6-months worth of photos off said phone.
For Laci's 40th birthday we decided to live it up and enjoy a weekend in Santa Fe. THIS is NOT an easy task to coordinate between 5 girls juggling 8 kids, school pickups & dropoffs, husbands & work schedules, BUT we busted out our calendars in February and pinpointed a September weekend we could all agree upon.

Birthday weekend also happened to coincide with the Buffalo Thunder Santa Fe 13.1 race. Laci clearly didn't care if any of us partook by stating, "y'all do whatever you want... I'm sleeping in and then going to brunch."
I found this race to be really enjoyable AND breathtakingly beautiful. It also didn't hurt that the last 10.5 miles were clearly DOWNhill.
Craig Woods, our friend from Amarillo... who I was trying to keep up with and catch for a solid 6 miles. 😜
finished
Bacon-cornbread waffles at brunch at Harry's Roadhouse Café afterward... the BEST reward for finishing.
