Race Day

Today was race day!  Sara and I did another half.  Our last two long walks were really hard.  Two weeks ago, Sara was still struggling with getting her wisdom teeth out and last week it was so hot I got sick.  So, we really weren't too sure what to expect.  However, we both felt great this morning and the weather was ideal so we had a great race.  We walk the entire time--but we walk super fast.  As fast as we can without that funny speed walking gate! We knocked almost 8 minutes off our race in April so we were very excited!  I think it was all due to the fact that we had the best cheerleaders out there!


And definitely the best sign out there!  My sweet husband got up super early, cooked me and Sara breakfast, let the girls make a sign, and got all three kids out of the house by 7:15!  I better watch out because he is gonna start putting me to shame!

Waiting and watching...


Finally a spotting!  I am not sure who was more excited--them or us!

When they weren't cheering, they were eating do-nuts!  They were Sam's first ones!  He ate 6 or 7 holes and thought that he had to have one in both hands at all times!

A better pic of the sign!
Even though we have both been pretty worthless the rest of the afternoon, we are already planning our next one!
