Sarasota, Florida

I rose a lot earlier than I wanted to. Worse yet, I snapped up as if I were missing something important. It wasn’t the graceful entrance to December 22nd I really wanted! However, since I was up, I put my bike in my car and zipped over to Balm Boyette for some trail riding. After 15 miles, I realized the need to keep more cardio in my routine. Gassed!

In the afternoon, the entire family went to the UTC Mall for a Christmas-themed Circus. I have a lot of respect for aerial artists! And by the looks on my girls’ faces, they feel the same!  After we walked around the decorated areas surrounding the mall, stumbled on a makeshift rink where the kids enjoyed countless laps of ice skating. Ellie was fearless! Weaving in and out of traffic like she’d been doing it for years. I couldn’t keep up so I decided to toss a few snowballs at them to change up the pace!

Today was a fabulous day! It also marks the 20% completion mark for the 365.
