Turkey Day and a Family Wedding Veggie Style

This weekend was a major challenge for me...thanksgiving and my cousins wedding all during no meat November? Not part of the original plan, but I did it! 

On Turkey day I did a 10k with Bailey and it was freezing. It was -2 degrees when we started. I seriously think that 6 miles was more difficult than the marathon. But we finished. Frozen eyelashes and all. 



This is my second year doing this race and last year my parents stood on the sidelines and froze their butts off, so this year they signed up to walk the 5k! I am so proud that my parents finished and it was under their goal time of 50 minutes :) 


And we ditched the normal Turkey Day meal and opted for Seafood Chowder and my favorite Fruit of the Forest Pie. I am so thankful that my parents were willing to skip out on tradition to help me through the month! 

Yesterday my cousin Carla got married! It was such a fun night. And who can say no to an excuse to dress up? The most difficult part of the night was dinner...there wasn't a vegetarian entree option since dinner was family style, but I made do! I had a salad, bread (totally worth the carbs), zucchini and broccoli, and a couple of mini desserts. 

Here are some pics from the big day! 






Until tomorrow,
