I think the next couple weeks will be busy so I don’t know how long it will take to get Halloween photos up but I thought I would share the two I finished so far.

Up first, the most awesome cake ever. The Husband took my idea for a tall ghost of some sort and came up with a kid under a sheet. I made all 7 layers and then constructed and iced the entire thing. The Sister made the fondant and decorated the whole thing.

And then, the costume. The Husband is getting ready to tie me to the train tracks.

As you all know, the Husband has turned into a runner. He ran his second 5K today and has another on Saturday. He also has turned me into a runner. I do admit I’ve been running with him for months but up until today, I would never have classified myself as a runner. Today, I can no longer make that claim.

Today, I ran a 5K.

And survived.

I ran all but 10 steps of the race and finished the race at 35:08. I placed 70-something overall and received the second-place trophy in my division (out of two). The Husband? He ran the race in 22:39, placed 23 overall but did not place in his division which included 18-year-old track stars. He did amazing, but I have a trophy!
