November trip continued...
We had a busy day in front of us. The race start time for the Jingle Jungle 5K at Animal Kingdom was set for 7am. They asked that all of the runners be there an hour before the start. What a fun morning this was.

We all got to see the sun rise. We found the Port-O-Lets and then the sun was up enough to take some pre-race photos. Dancing Princess was Minnie Mouse for Halloween. I had gone searching for a dress for her costume and found one for me! I have never worn a costume in a race in my life! This definitely was a first. And I have never worn a dress in a race either. I did buy the polka dot leg warmers for the race, but made the ears for Dancing Princess and all the Mickey Hands for everyone.
What I loved about being in Corral A was that there were NO LINES to take photos with characters! I came over a little knoll in the course and there was someone waiting to take my camera and capture this AWESOME shot! Goofy as Santa, perfect. You can see my costume a lot better here! (Side note: A client of mine borrowed me this belt. I saw the company at the expo and they showed me how to use the bib number ties! No more pins for this lady, I have to get my client her belt back after I get one for my self, of course.) ;)
You can see the yellow cones on the right side of this photo. We took our picture and turned around to head back toward the park. As we did, I saw all of these hot air balloons. What an amazing site that was. Along with the beautiful sunrise and sky, what a great morning for a run.
I think there might be some mist coming off this little patch of water. There was a man dressed as a Safari guy holding off crocodiles along this stretch of road too.
We are ready and at the bus stop. The forecast called for rain. We were hoping it would hold off until midnight or so, that way neither one of us would have to run in it for too long. No such luck. It was a sprinkly, spitty kind of rain. I was getting wet and Deanna had to wait longer to start. I prayed she would keep her feet dry before the race and I avoided as many puddles as I could during.

I know I used the Strava app to log this mileage, today was day 99 in my challenge to myself! What a fun way to mark this special day. This was not a timed race. The medal is really a rubber and I think it would be cool if it were really a magnet for my fridge. LOL!
I know after we all finished our events, (one of Deanna's kids ran their first mile race and had so much fun! Way to go everyone.) we headed back for lunch and naps. The half marathon start time was at 10:00pm. We knew we would have to wait awhile before the gun went off, so most of us took naps.

| The rewards from the weekend! |
Here are the finished run shots. Because of the rain, I couldn't get my smartphone to take pictures with my cold wet fingers. The Epcot photo was taken by SwimChick.
If I could, I would definitely do this race again on a non-rainy night. My official time for this half even in the rain was 1:59.01. I can't believe I came in just under 2 hours. I was soaked. I was given a special wrist band to collect my Coast to Coast medal from a special tent. Even in that tent, I didn't feel warm. I collected my gear and contemplated going to change into dry clothes and wait for Deanna. I waited for her at our designated location.
I am so thankful for the lady who gave me her foil blanket, it helped some. And even more thankful that Deanna finished un-injured and said she just wanted to go home and get warm. Part of me is sad we didn't take in the party. Honestly more of me was happy we could get on a warm bus and go home to a hot shower. In hindsight, I would go change next time and find a dry place to wait. And I should have taken a HOT bath when I got home.
This race ended after midnight for me, so I counted it as my 100th day of running in a row, too! What a fun way to do that.
During this race, I did not see many characters out. Deanna said there were long lines and lots of characters. I did see places where I thought there might be characters, but they were not there as I trotted by. I am thinking they brought them earlier and took them in to warm up and get dry costumes! LOL!
The next morning, most of us went to Downtown Disney and played at Disney Quest. My kids LOVED it. On Monday, we went to Animal Kingdom Resort for a delicious breakfast. Yummy food was had by all. That night was the Very, Merry Christmas Party. My family was so excited. I highly recommend going and hope to do it again another time. We saw fireworks, light shows, and an amazing parade. I have never seen a Parade that smelled of Christmas! Really as floats went by you could smell cookies and Christmas trees! We got to eat all kinds of Snickerdoodle cookies. Dancing Princess loved them so much she asked if we could make those cinnamon cookies when we did some cookie baking for Christmas.
What I am excited to share most is that Deanna completed an amazing goal of running 4 half marathons in one year! Considering she had not done one ever until we went to California for Tinkerbell, that is an amazing thing!
My next most exciting thing to share is that 2 of my 3 kids want to run a Disney Half marathon and 1 wants to do a shorter race! So we are now starting to save up for 2017 or 2018!

November Disney Trip...
So sorry I didn't blog about our time in Florida. I took several photos, as did SwimChick. I will try my best to tell you all about it here. WARNING: This is a photo heavy post. And I will break it up into several "days", because of that. This post is about getting to Florida and the expo. Enjoy.
Thought this was cute, they are watching the airport crew load/unload a plane as we waited in MKE Airport the morning we left.
And we played a little at the shop in the home airport. Hehehe!!!! Gotta love the cheese store.
Dancing Princess was a bit nervous for the plane ride. She was almost 3 the last time we were on an airplane and does not remember that trip, except for the photos in an album. We sat next to each other on both legs of the journey, and I could not convince her that the turbulence was like being on a roller coaster. Her older siblings thought she was crazy for not being more relaxed and enjoying the flights, but we worked through it and made it in one piece. Overall, she gave the rides a thumbs up!
On the Magic bus to the resort!!!
We got in at dinner time. Deanna and I had to do the shopping and took a cab to Wal Mart. We bought our weeks worth of snacks and meals. (I don't like going to a new store, I never know where anything is! It took us a couple of hours and the families were "starving" when we got home with the food!)
This is the walk to our Tree House that night. It looks a bit enchanting and fairy tale like.

Deanna and I by the Official Wine and Dine Poster thingy! Doesn't she look fabulous! So proud of her and all she has done to get to this day.
One More Mile is a fun company. I have ordered some magnets from them and they offer all sorts for funny shirts. Deanna is always talking about Dole Whip. Please don't hate me or anything, but i have never had one! I saw this shirt and thought of her. I took this photo to text to her when we were lost at the expo together?!?! (We went back to the expo after eating lunch and left the families at the Tree House!) I think she bought one, too. LOL!
I love the expo. I love that you can try on some of the products you can only get online. I think I talked a bit about this when I posted about our Tinkerbell run. I did not plan to spend much money at this event, because I bought a lot in California AND I was taking the kids to Disney Quest and Magic Kingdom.
I had an interesting turn of events at this expo. As I said earlier, I got there and headed to the loo! I thought that everyone was heading to packet pick up so when we finished up that is were we headed. I had signed myself up for the Jingle Jungle 5k AND the Wine and Dine Half Marathon. So I had to hit two lines! Many large races these days are putting you into Corrals based on a time you submitted when you signed up to run. A lot of the time you must prove your time from a previous race. You have some time before the official race day to update your proof of time too. In August, I had done a half marathon that was faster than the one I submitted for my proof of time entry. Somewhere along the line, I hit a computer glitch and could not get the runDisney site to up date my time. "Oh well, my submitted time is still under 2 hours, it will be ok." I thought.
When I get my bib numbers, I was in Corral A for the 5K and Corral L for the Half. I dug out the map of corrals and see that L is the last available Corral. WHAT THE??? "OK, no worries, I can still run this event. I am only here for the medal anyway." I told myself. But I needed to see why I got placed in the last corral. So I got into another line and waited.
The girl that helped me looked me up in the computer. I could see the screen she was looking at and right there it said my proof of time and she says, "Huh?" Then went to take to the guy in charge. He came over and looked at the screen and says, "Oh, your one of those!" Um, what? He explained that there were a handful of entrants that the computer had a proof of time but the predicted finish time said 7 hours and we all got put into the last corral. He got out a sticker and put me in Corral D.
In hindsite, I am so Thankful that I contested the placement. I will write about race day in another post!

So our first full day we spent a lot of time at the Wide World of Sports Complex. I headed for the bathroom and lost Deanna and family the minute we got there. I knew she wanted to buy runDisney New Balance shoes but didn't realize how badly until that point. As I took my crew to the loo, she headed for the line to get into the shoe store! I am sorry to say that I did not get a photo of the line or her new kicks. They are pretty cool looking. AND you can only purchase them at a runDisney expo!
Here are some of the photos from the expo that I did capture:

Deanna and I by the Official Wine and Dine Poster thingy! Doesn't she look fabulous! So proud of her and all she has done to get to this day.
I stood in a short line to meet Jeff Galloway. He is the Official runDisney Training Plan designer and an Olympic Athlete! Cool.

Chatching up
Happy January 17! I have been meaning to post more and here we are 17 days into the new year and this is my first post. Such is life.
SO, I just saw that I never posted about our trip to Disney in November. I have not updated about my dad, or myself. I will spend the next few days doing that. I never posted about my New Year Goals or resolutions...
Here we go. I will start out with my arm.
Here is a picture of the fracture(s) in my radius. If you look closely, you can see the bone fragments are sort of all over the place!
Here is what happened, as I remember it: Early in the day, 8:00am-ish, we got a drizzle rain. I was going to work, at the office job I picked up (another thing I should update you all on!) Anyway, the rain was freezing on my windshield. At the office, I saw lots of slow moving vehicals and when I left for the day, the salt had been applied.
I DID NOT GET UP AND RUN IN THE MORNING!!!!! So, I went home put on my running gear, picked up kids, dropped off kids, per our normal Thursday after school routine. I was going out the door around 6pm, to pick up kids and WHAM!!! I fell literally right on my face!!!!! I am not joking here, all I remember is my right knee hitting the pavement and K-POW my forehead hit next. As I lay there, I thought, "Don't passout, don't passout, don't passout..." Then my next thought was, "I have to get up, I am probably bleeding profusely from my forehead. OH GREAT!' And don't forget the thougthts of, "Oh, crap, I put a hole in my favorite running pants!"
When I did try to get up to assess the damage, I couldn't use my left hand normally. It felt weird, like my fingers weren't connected anymore. My sleeve had gotten pushed up a bit, and I saw my wrist/arm didn't look right. There was this curve in there, where it is normally straight. "Now, what?" I thought. My husband was in the house, and I screamed and reached for my phone, cuz I wasn't sure if he could hear me. He came out and instead of the sympathetic "Oh my, are you ok? What happened?" you would like to think you would get from your loved ones, I got: "Honey, you just warned everyone about the driveway being slippery, what were you thinking?" That made me feel SOOOO much better! He came out and I told him to be careful, and I helped me up. My head was kind of hurting and my arm didn't feel right. I wasn't sure what was going to happen.
We got me inside, found a ride home for the kids I was supposed to go get, put some ice on my arm, called a neighbor to come be with the kids and went to the ER. They were impressed with our make-shift splint of a couple of CD cases and a kitchen towel. (Sorry, no photo of that!)
The x-ray above was taken that night. We saw Dr. Nicholas Webber the next day and couldn't get in to do surgery until the Tuesday after that! The blog post from Dec 19, is the photo of the splint I got in the ER.
Surgery was on December 23, scheduled for 4:30 in the afternoon. I didn't get taken in until about 5:30. I was blessed with this lovely plate and 9 screws that night.
I do not come out of anesthisia very well. My husband kept trying to get me to wake up and move around so that we could get home. It was funny, from what I remember. They wanted me to eat and walk before going home. I took about two bites of sherbert and fell asleep. Hubby let me sleep about 30 more mintues, and I thought is was 5, came in and asked that I just try to stay awake for the next 2 minutes. Um, sure right! I just wanted to sleep. Seriously, that was a crazy night. We got up and going, sort of, and made it home around 10:30pm.
So now I have this stuff in my arm. I was given a soft splint and an appointment to see the Doc again in a few weeks.
On January 6, I went to the office and the soft splint came off, they took these x-rays to see how I was healing. Because I am a massage therapist, the doc put me in a hard cast, to allow the bone to heal up to perfection, so that I can go bck to doing massage in the future.
Every day it feels a bit better. Today, my fingers are a little swollen, but I am typing on the computer with the broken arm! And I feel no pain doing that, at the moment. I might need a nap in between writing all these posts I want to write to catch you all up on stuff! LOL.
The end result, of course I picked purple, my favorite color!!!
I get this cast off on February 6. I asked about running and the nurse said I had to wait a bit longer, walking is fine (Does she know how tourcherous it is for me to walk on a treadmill verses running on one?!?!?!)
I have been seriously going through withdrawls, just ask my kids. I am WAY behind on my 2015 in 2015 challenge, too! I will tell you all about that later. :)

Tinkerbell half Marathon...
What a fun run… If you have NEVER done a Disney race, you have got to save up for it and go. Their expo is HUGE!!! I didn't even get to see all the booths, because we wanted to meet my friend and tour LA. As you saw in Friday's post, I went with money to spend and intentions of purchasing fun stuff. I will blog about those items another time, for now ON WITH THE SHOW….
The race was scheduled for 5:00am start time. As with most big races I have attended this past year, the start line was by corrals. The letter on your bib number is where you are slotted to start. Do you see my letter?!?!? How in the world did I get slotted for corral A? I saw that if you plan on running a 2:30 or less time you got into corral A. That's pretty cool, all my halves have been less than 2 hours.
I started with D in her corral. Even she was shocked to see that she was slotted for corral C. Pretty cool for her first half. When you register for these events, they ask what you believe you will finish in. And they ask for proof of faster times. So, I put on my registeration the Summerfest Rock N Sole time, and that I would be running in the Madison Mini and Brewer Mini later in the year. We couldn't remember if D's only proof of time was ther Summerfest Rock N Sole 5K, or if she told them of her 10k time as well. No matter, we waited our turn in corral C. It was AMAZING!!! So many people dressed up as characters. We saw all sorts of fairies, Captain Hooks, Smee's, even some of the villains were there.
Many people can't believe they start the races so early in the morning. Sometimes they have to start that early because of the heat of the day. I think Disney does it to show off the lighting in the parks. It is sooooooo cool. Keeps you hyped up for the whole race, that's for sure.

| At the starting line. (Sorry its blurry!?!?!) |
| There were lines to meet characters: The Incredibles |

| Now entering Magic Kingdom... |
| Me: Turn around, I will get you with the castle. D: What? Are you crazy? Me: Yup!!!! LOL. (Her daughter made "Shwings" for her shoes. They are cool!) |
| I HAD to stop and get a photo of the race namesake. |
| It's a Small World all lit up. Oh, look a runner dressed as Tink in my photo too! |

| A close up of the medal. Tink spins in the middle. And this baby is HUMUNGOUS!!! |
Now to save up for our Coast To Coast adventure in November! Visit runDisney to learn more about this challenge and all the fun races they have to offer.
