Caporale Girls: January 2014

Deep freeze

Soooo our Christmas break has been extended by two extra days due to wind chills as low as -44! We don't mind at all staying warm inside. Monday we had an impromptu play date with some friends and tomorrow we plan to go to the movies with some other friends to break the cabin fever!

I did my first snow and longest trail run this past Saturday in southern Illinois called the Siberian Express. It was a 7.45 mile run with some major climbs on snow and ice. It was hard work but loads of fun and I got my first race of the year in!

New Years!

The girls and I, despite the big snow storm, headed to the city for dinner at Big Bricks to celebrate grandmas birthday and the new year with Papo and Uncle Brian on New Years eve. Then we headed home at had a blast ringing in the New Year at a party we were invited to at Pastor Dave's house with some of our friends. We rang in the kid new year at 11pm and headed home earlier than midnight because Annie was tired but both girls did awesome staying up that late!! Lots of changes in store for 2014 but it's going to be a year of peace and new beginnings and we are excited!!
