My Family is Full of Turkeys

I really wanted to run in a a Turkey Trot this year however my hometown does not offer one and the closest one to me is about an hour away and has a $30 entry fee most importantly...I was not going to get a shirt out of it. So I had almost given up on the idea when I realized that my parents live on a very hilly but secluded 2.5 mile loop and I have a huge family. The combination of these two things has created the Frist Annual My Family is Full of Turkeys Fun Run. I am also mapping out a 1 mile route for the non-exercisers that still want to join in on the fun. Now, there is a possibility that every family member I just sent this email to just opened it, rolled their eyes and hit the delete button, but I think there is a good chance that I can at least get 4 other people out there with me. And the best part.....I am working on the design for the T-shirt right now and I am going to print it off on to transfer paper and then iron it on to shirts!

What a great idea! Your shirt idea is probably going to be way cuter anyway. Good luck.

How fun! I wish I could get my family to do this kind of stuff. They all think I'm kind of crazy. :) Have a great holiday!

Well my family does think I am nuts, but there are enough squirrels in the fam that are willing to at least try it! And apparently we are inviting the neighbors and friends and basically anyone who will be seen with us! It will be a blast! Betty, I wish you could come too, but you would smoke us and it would be so embarassing! :)
