One of my cute little DIL’s ran the Utah Valley Marathon this last weekend! I was so proud of her for accomplishing her goal. A marathon is something that I have always wanted to do, but know that I cannot, so I will admire all of those that do. She had some injury difficulties and was still able to push through them to complete her race, so that made it even more of an accomplishment! You can read her inspiring story here.
Way to Go Anne Marie, we are SOOO proud of you and your determination!
I wanted to do something to show her that we were proud of her for reaching this big, lofty goal so I put together a little pampering basket for after the race. Because, after all, what marathon runner does not need a little pampering? Or perhaps a lot of pampering!
It contains: Epsom salts to soak those sore muscles, Gel booties to cool your feet, foot massage lotion, nail polish, sports water, and a few treats!
Here it is all tied up with a pinwheel on the top!
So do any of you have marathon friends or family members that need a little pampering? Or perhaps you are a runner, (even if that means just chasing kids around all day) and could just use a little bit of pampering… go ahead and treat yourself with a fun basket!
Thank you, Rita, I LOVED the basket! It made me feel so good that you cared enough to do that for me. You are so sweet and kind. And of course, creative!! :)
Rita, you created a superb celebratory gift for Anne Marie, and what a wonderful achievement for her and your entire family!
The gift basket you made is a masterpiece, the type of arrangement I encourage every creative person in this dynamic industry to make, which is a collection of items that the receiver will enjoy and always remember.
I wish you and Anne Marie baskets of success to complete every goal!
great idea and so nice of you!
