I got in a run on the roads, and Andrew got in a ride on the muddy trails:

I’m trying to take Brooke’s soccer team for a run and sprints every week. Beck joined the sprints part and really pushed himself.

We had a church Christmas party (just a tad blurry photo):

Peppermint chocolate is my love language.

THe kids were thrilled to bring decor home with us.

Now for this week’s favorite things:
*Brooke has arrived in the comment section of my blog. Her first one ever. My life was made:

*I posted this fleece (I copied Megan) last year and can’t wait to get it out to wear this year, too.

*I’m not a huge makeup gal (I mean I wear it, but I don’t know anything about it;), BUT I LOVE this highlighting/contour palette. It’s so easy for us, less talented with make-up (me) people. It blends in so well, goes on so smoothly, and I get excited to use it. Use code SAVEGIFTS to get 20% off!

*We got Skye these goals, these sticks, and these balls for her birthday to play street hockey all of the time. It provides endless entertainment, neighbors come out and join us, and anyone can play it. Direct quote from Knox’s friend after playing with us, “That was one of the funnest things I’ve ever done.”

*The world’s best sweater is back in stock. I rotate through all the colors in it and can’t stop. Everything at Gap is 50% off right now!

*My current favorite protein hot chocolate. I adore this morning ritual, and the taste is so good. I’ve also started adding my daily unflavored creatine to my morning hot chocolate.

*Elizabeth shared this with me, and it is so good! I would love a chance to go and do this someday:
*I just got this striped long sleeve on Amazon for Brooke, and she has rated it a 10/10… and I’ll probably borrow it, too.

*I just treated myself to this fleece to wrap and put under the tree… the red is so good. Actually, I take that back… I’ll be wearing it the second it arrives on my doorstep.

*Columbia is having a Holiday Countdown Sale, which means 25-50% off almost everything! I want this coat so bad. AD

These leggings, these ones, this jacket, this half-zip, and this bra are some of my favorite running pieces, and they are all on sale, too.
