If you give a mouse a cookie....


it might ask for a glass of milk.
And if you make Ariana your running partner, you might find yourself running up a mountain in the middle of a November rainstorm. Or walking, in my case, as she danced at the top.
Honestly, it was amazing. I kind of woke up at 2 thinking, "it will be fun to run in the rain today." Ariana was possibly ecstatic. We ran around the lake and up this mountain nearby which is very small but very steep.
It rained all day today, and let me tell you. Everyone at the hospital was so excited about it yesterday- the patients, the doctors, everyone. It was a beautiful rain, and we were both totally soaked at the end, but it's the kind of thing that makes you feel lucky to be alive. Happy December everyone!!

I'm loving your rain enthusiasm. I just keep waiting for the snow to come so we can stop looking at all the "brown" that is Utah at the moment. (Although, the white in the mountains IS gorgeous!) hee hee Happy December back to you!

I'm still euphoric. It was such a fantastic run! You forgot to tell everyone about how you not only ran up a mountain today but ALSO ran around the lake too, a nice 3 mile jog. How sweet is that? Thank you so much for running with me! Something that awesome is even better shared...
