Hello! I just had a very blessed, happy, delicious, run-y, eat-y, grateful Thanksgiving. I just got home and want to make this quick so I can watch some TV while I fall asleep. That would be the perfect ending to today. This is mostly pictures, but it’s not rocket science so I think you can put it together.
While I was running I decided I wanted a cake dessert. I knew we would have pumpkin pie at dinner, but I prefer cake over pie. I decided to put the two together and make an Apple Upside Down Cake. I had to just guess at the store since I ran out of data on my phone and couldn’t google it. I grabbed cake mix, butter, apple pie filling, apples and a few random things.
It turned out great!!
Time to head to dinner with the family!
My favorite person! She’s my friend now. I love it.
I’m the official turkey carver around here! Thank you Food Network for the tips.
Thank you God.

Glad you had a nice Thanksgiving! I ran a turkey trot in the morning…5 miles. Unfortunately, I was a slacker and did nothing Friday, Saturday or Sunday! 🙁

Monica you look so pretty. That dress looks amazing in you. Today I am trying to convince myself that I should at least go for a walk this morning but not going to lie…I’m tired. 🙂

What a great Thanksgiving it was! I ran a 4 mile turkey trot with my dad to start the day and did 30 minutes of yoga to end it.
Becky @ Ok, so here's the plan says
I ran 10 miles before the big dinner yesterday, so I don’t know what I’m doing today. Maybe a few miles, maybe just some yoga.

Beach walk with my family!

Georgina says
Or not…slept funny and can barely move my head! Thought it would resolve by BP but no such luck. Unplanned rest for me I guess!
Katie says
Lots of playing with my nieces yesterday – does that count? On the slate for today, 45 minute run.

I’m heading to the gym in a bit! Did a 5 mile turkey chase yesterday which aggravated a muscle strain, not sure that I’m going to hit my 100 mile running goal 🙁
Rhonda H says
I had an indulging day, now mustering up the strength to hit the TM for my 40 min comittment!
Jen says
yoga this morning, day 5/5 workouts done (including 1 day of yoga)! made my goal all 4 weeks!
also you look lovely in that dress and i’m amazed and impressed that you wore it to thanksgiving, instead of a roomy, flowy maxi dress or something more conducive to massive amounts of thanksgiving eating…. haha!
Courtney says
Took a nice log walk and played with in the frosty park with the neighbor kids! Now on two round two of turkey tomorrow and a brief hike to the lighthouse 🙂
