Pumpkin Pacer Deer Park 2012

Pumpkin Pacer again this year.  5k costume event!  It is always fun to check out the costumes and take pictures.  This one below is a little creepy actually.  Clever but creepy.  
This group wins the prize for the best posing every year!  John, Cheryl and group!
Sheila and I!  I can always count on Sheila to tough out the weather or whatever!  Thanks Sheila!
Oh beautiful for spacious skies for amber...
I walked up to this group to ask if I could take their picture.  The teeth came out and Jen said I know you!!!  I didn't even recognize them.  Jennifer and my daughter went to school together.  They are still great friends. Good costume if I didn't recognize this family!
Another clever but a bit creepy costume.  They are really standing normally on their feet.  The costume makes it look like they are walking on their hands.



I have a new friend.  Dominic!  He was there when I picked up my packet and had my number out before I told him my name.  Wasn't sure how he knew who I was.  Turns out he and his brother are friends with Kyle and Steve.  His brother hung out with Mark, my son in law.  Did I get that right Dominic?  I could tell right off the bat that he was/is a very nice man!  Thanks for supporting Team Gleason Dominic and it was a pleasure to meet you!
Grandmas dress up too!
One mile down!
I just love this church!  So I snapped a picture.
Mile two down!
Love the pose!  Father ?
Almost done!
I usually walk between a 14 and 15 minute mile.  Sometimes even in the 13 minute mile area. Since my aneurysm I have lost some of that fast walking skill.  I was happy with this time because it is better than it has been.  I am coming back! I always ask if I won when I cross the finish line.  It's fun!  I get funny responses usually.  This year I thought there should be an aneurysm survivor category and then I could actually win!  I have already one for sure.  I am alive and well and I have survived cancer and the brain aneurysm.  I give the  glory to God and to the fabulous support I have from all!  
Santa!
Now are official coffee stop after the race.  Not a race it is an event.  Love doing this.  Gives us time to talk about the event and life.

After the Pumpkin Pacer I went to Kristin's to visit.  I had to take Sammie for dog training not far from Kristin's so I hung out there and Mike brought Sammie to me.  Layne was Ranger of the Month at her school.  Great academics and citizenship.  Proud of you Layne.
Lucy with "pink" her blanket. She calls it pink.  Where is pink?
The girls surprised Grandpa Mike and got dressed up in their Halloween costumes.
Sammie was fascinated by the cats.  They were separated by the glass!

Kristin said I had to put this picture on the blog.  Yes, Sammie has a seat in the car.  If I leave her loose she wants to climb up on my shoulder and look out the window.  A bit distracting while driving! I have now become one of those people with a little dog that has a sweater and a car seat.

This is a little concert given by out granddaughters.  Love these precious little ones.
