October 11 - The Tator Trot at Jensen's grove. Annie, Ryder and Mikala ran the 5K in the pouring rain!
Cole waited in the shelter where it was dry. Molly, Hallie and Penny would venture out in the rain and then come back. Brian and Randy would run out to see if they could see them. Brian ended up carrying Penny back.
Hallie was on the opposite side of the car and said look at the rainbow on my side. I couldn't get a good picture of it, so Hallie took these amazing pictures!
I got this yummy float for my birthday at Dixie's Diner, and I also got these beautiful flowers from Cindy and Ken.

October 27 - A very sad day! I wrecked my car! I was crossing Hiway 26 at 600 W. Somehow, someway I hit the back of a trailer being pulled by a pickup. I don't know how I didn't see him! I got a ticket, the car had to be towed away. Luckily the guy I hit was very kind. Randy came and rescued me. I went from being very scared to really mad to just very sad.
