Today we celebrated my dear friend Colleen's 40th birthday in a new kind of style: She hosted a run/walk/bike 5k at her home. We ran through the streets of Farmington on a pre-designed course that ended at her house.Tom joined us and biked the route with our girls in tow, so they have technically participated in their first race. (The fact that they were both screaming throughout most of it will be politely ignored.) Afterwards we got to hang out with Colleen and her friends and family, as well as her assertive and fun-loving children, where we had a continental breakfast and, ironically, cake. (Healthy lifestyle or not, what's a birthday party without cake?!?)
Truly one of the neatest birthday parties I have been to! Happy Birthday to Colleen, who is truly "40 and Sporty!"
Liesl was so proud to get her own race bib.
Some of my FAMC peeps showed up as well:Maria (on the bike), Kristen (in green), and Roxana (in blue)
And that tiny little helmet-clad blue thing on the right...that's Ava.
The girls ready for the starting line. And Tom, who was pretty much along for the ride.Yuk, yuk, yuk.

I feel pretty. Oh so pretty.
