Celebration of Survival

Penny I. and her family hosted a fantastic Celebration of Survival party this past Saturday up at Lake Allatoona. We had a terrific time and enjoyed great food, weather and company....and the kids enjoyed the swings and jumpies!

Penny B., Jen, Penny I. and Carmen - all cancer survivors!

Penny J. was at the party too but I just missed her so we didn't get a picture of the three Pennys. Hopefully we'll all be getting together again soon!!

New Baby

Penny B's newest family member, Sopapilla! She is a 9 pound Chihuahua that is 1 year old. She was rescued from a puppy mill and is LOVING her new home!

Shoe Shopping

Who doesn't LOVE shoe shopping? Mom took me out last week and treated me to a new pair of shoes and lunch for my Birthday. We went to Big Peach Running Co. and it was the BEST experience. We went to the one off of Barrett Parkway and highly recommend Lucas! He spent over two hours with us! We made quite a mess trying on dozens of shoes. They film you walking on the treadmill to see if you pronate etc. and to find what type of shoe will work best for you. If you are doing lots of walking or running they suggest getting 1/2 to a full size bigger shoe. I'm so glad I took his advice because my new shoes ROCK! Thanks Mom!

First Week of Training....

Well, we're off to a good start with 14 miles logged this week. Here is a picture of Mom and me in our Pennys Platoon camo tees! We are going to get fitted next week for "better" shoes which we're both very exited about.

Mallory & Chelsey: Race for the Cure

Mallory & Chelsey walked with a group of their friends earlier this month in the Susan G. Komen 5k in Los Angeles. I hear that the girls had a great time - and I wanted to post a pic from the event!!
