Aquarium and Marathon and Thanksgiving

I'm so excited! Today I get to see my bestest friend in the entire world-Ashley! She and Kelly are coming into town today to see Kelly's parents for Thanksgiving. It's a fast trip since Ashley's parents are going to see her new house, but still, I'm glad to spend some time with her! We are going to the Georgia Aquarium, which I haven't done yet so I think it will be fun. I'm really excited to see the Titanic exhibit that just came in.

I got my hair cut yesterday by a new stylist at Bon Vivant. Her name is Christy and I LOVE my hair. I asked Travis if he liked it and he said "Do you want me to be honest?" That of course scared me because I thought he was going to say no, but I'd still rather know if my husband thinks I look hideous or not. Anyways, he said he didn't even notice. haha, all that worry for nothing. But Christy (Ellis) agrees with me that it looks much better than the last time I got it cut. I have finally found a stylist to go to on a regular basis- at least while we live in Atlanta!

Tomorrow is the Weather Channel Marathon. I am a little excited but also disappointed. I have gotten sick so much during this training because of my job and really don't feel as prepared as I would like. Charles convinced me to stay with the marathon rather than switch to the half. I am just telling myself that I am not worried about time (I'm really going to try to be true to this) and that I'm doing it merely for fun and exercise. I know I can finish- probably just not in the time I'd like. I don't want to be hurt after the race and miss more workouts, so I will be careful. I am already looking to the March 14 marathon here in Atlanta and feel that I have plenty of tim to continue my training to get ready for it. That's what I'll be focusing on after tomorrow. Still, it's always fun to run a new race and it will be the first time I have someone I know running with me!

Travis' family comes into town on Thursday afternoon. It should be fun. I can't believe we're even attempting to host Thanksgiving in our itty bitty apt., but we are! It should be interesting.

Happy Thanksgiving!

(PS I can't wait for the parade! I am going to have to tape it though since I'll be running while it's on.)
