Vikings Prayer

Vikings Prayer:

Our Favre-ther who art in Mississippi, hallowed be thy name.

Thy bowl will come; it will be won; in Miami as it is in the Dome.

Give us this Sunday, our weekly win. Give us touchdown passes, but do not let others pass against us.

Lead us not into frustration, but deliver us to the Super Bowl.

For thine is the MVP, the best of the NFC, and the glory of the PurplePeople Eaters now and forever.

Amen

Up For A Run?

Normally I don't bother with a New Years resolution but this year I came up with a New Years Goal. I've decided it's time for me to do something for myself. For a few years (5ish) I've put myself last on the priority list. I haven't had time to do anything for myself in a while- even a shower is too much to ask for a few times a week.

So, this is my year. I'm going to take some time to myself and start taking care of myself. With that said, my New Years Goal is to RUN. RUN, RUN, RUN!

I've been working out regularly for just over one year now, since Cal and Teagan turned 9 months old. I lost all of my pregnancy weight and I'm feeling healthy and back to "normal" again (with the exception of the twin skin). I've worked my way up to running 3 miles at a time, 3 days per week.

I found a realistic HALF MARATHON training schedule that I hope to follow over the next 19 WEEKS. So, my goal is to run a HALF marathon in the Spring/Summer. I may even start with a 10k in May....I'll keep you updated.

I've been recruiting friends and family to join in the fun. Today was the end of my first week and I did it! My total miles for the week: 14. It feels great.
I'll email you the schedule if you're interested.

Happy New Year 2010!!!

still hungover and waiting for others to email me pictures because I didn't take any of my own :)



Doug came into town to rock Minneapolis with us for the New Year! We had a BLAST!

But, I don't know if staying out until 2:30am is a good idea when you have 3 kids that wake up at 7am. OUCH!

I DO know that Bar La Grassa is fantastic!

I do know that reviewing the decade by passing around "memorable" pictures with close friends is a wonderful idea- thanks Josh.

I also know that you shouldn't order Long Island Ice Teas if you are no longer in your 20's.

Another game that you shouldn't play if you're over the age of 18: bloody knuckles. At least the boys don't have hematomas on their arms this time from drunk-punching.

Seeing the IMAX-3D-Avatar-movie-of-the-century when you're hungover is not the best idea, as it may be too intense and you may get the smelly hungover sweats and puke into a popcorn bag (I'm not going to name names).

But that movie is out of this world!
