The Stages Of Lucy's Turkey Trot

We did the Turkey Trot 5K (3.1 miles) on Thanksgiving morning. This is Lucy's first year to do it without a stroller. We decided to just bring the single stroller for Molly to use if needed and make Lucy walk. We were maybe about 1/4-1/2 mile in and Lucy said she was tired of walking. This did not surprise me at all, as she's not really our outdoors or exercise girl. :) She had boots on instead of tennis shoes and that might have made it worse. I didn't even think to tell her to put tennis shoes on when we were getting ready to leave. It was chilly that morning so I thought good her boots will keep her warm. Oh well....

We ended up carrying her a few times and she did get to ride in the stroller for a little while Molly was walking with Poppy. I sure do love Lucy!
