Tofurkey Day

We started out our Thanksgiving Day with an early wake up by Gordy.  He had gotten himself dressed in his running gear, and had started making his own breakfast in preparation for the community turkey trot.  He was afraid that we were oversleeping and, more importantly, he wanted Todd to make him a coffee (foamed milk with cinnamon) to "give him some energy".  

After a quick breakfast and hydration, we hopped on our bikes and headed to the start of the race.  No preparation occurred in the weeks leading up to the race due to Gordy being sick for the last few weeks, so we took it out slow.  Apparently we found a good pace because Gordy was able to keep it up for the full 5k which he completed in 31 minutes.




Gordy loved the race and is pretty sure that he's going to do it every year.

We spent the rest of the day being fairly lazy and then had a delicious vegetarian dinner (baked breaded tofu, green salad, brussel sprouts, sweet potatoes, corn on the cob, etc.) with Nana, Rik, and Aaron.  We are very thankful for so many things in our lives, especially our friends and families.  We love you all and we hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day.
