Turkey day fun!

We decided as a family to go to the Turkey Trot here on post. They had a 5K and a 2 mile walk. Braxton really wanted to participate in the 5 K like he had last year and went for it with Brandon. Braxton was the youngest participant his year. His age group was 15 and younger. He came is second to a kids who looked to be in high school. We are so proud of him and how determined he is to compete in these events. Isaiah and I walked and we sometimes ran. Isaiah was so funny after about a mile he was ready to be finished. But then he looked back and saw that there were a few kids behind him and kept on going. He was the youngest kid and came in first but somehow they put the tags in the wrong order and the girl that he was determined to beat took the trophy home. He and Braxton both came home with teddy bears and all were happy. Then we went to stuff ourselves with goodness on post. This year they decided to add King Crab to the Thanksgiving meal and Braxton was one happy boy. Maybe this will be a new tradition. Crab with trukey! Yum!
