Isla's First Halloween

Isla started off her first Halloween with a party at school. She "painted" a pumpkin at the party. Here is her first outfit of the day.




Later she dressed up to hand out candy to the trick-or-treaters.

Warrior Dash

Yesterday Ryan and I ran in the Warrior Dash. It was a 5K with about 12 obstacles ranging from rope climbs to cargo nets and even jumping through fire. It ended with a crawl through the mud pit. Ryan stayed with me throughout the race even though I was really slow. I attempted all of the obstacles, but there were two that I couldn't do, the ones that involved scaling the top of a wall. I didn't think that was too bad for being four months post-partum. Overall it was really fun and everyone had a great time. We couldn't have asked for a nicer day. Ryan's parents came in town for the weekend to watch Isla while we ran. After the race some friends came over for dinner and shuffleboard. We are pretty tired and sore today! Plans have already been made for Warrior Dash 2012 in KC!

Here is the group before the race.

I was trying really hard not to get all muddy, so of course I fell in and it was all over! I don't think I've ever felt that disgusting before. You basically have mud EVERYWHERE!
