We decided last minute to join Rick, Katie, and Karsen at the beach to celebrate New Years. In the past, we have spent it with our good friends Dave, Alexa, and their daughter Roen but they are currently in New Zealand finishing up their residences so hopefully next year! We had a great time at the beach that was nice and low-key. Katie and I made dinner, the boys got to play on the beach a few times, and we all got to relax a little. Henry loved laying in the sand and racing cars, and Clay loved running and chasing the birds and eating sand. It was so hard to keep them out of the water! This summer is going to be fun! Even though we haven't made it to midnight in quite a while, I love spending the first day of the New Year with all my boys!
Oh, and I turned 31 so we had to celebrate. Any reason for cake. Notice we had no candles, but the glade votive worked just fine. Jeff came home and surprised me with a bag of goodies all wrapped separately, and the boys helped. So sweet! I also decided on my 31st birthday to sign up for my first half-marathon. Hilton Head here we come! I've been training for a while, but probably not as strict as I should. I've done a couple of good long runs the last couple of weekends, and tomorrow I will peak at 12 miles and start going down until the race. I'm really excited, but a little nervous too. I just hope to finish, and look for my three biggest fans at the finish line!
