marathon

I skated my first inline marathon this morning. It was an amazing experience and I'm glad I did it, but boy am I glad it's over! And the best part... I won the raffle! I get to pick out any pair of K2 skates that I want! Not bad.

at this point i had 1 more 8.7 mile loop to go!

my cheering section!

all done- relief.

oh, and i finished in under 2 hours- my exact time was 1 hour 58 minutes.

not bad for the first time.

mitty

The kids have been so blessed to have their Auntie Mitty in their lives! They adore her and will miss her terribly when we move- it's going to be hard on all of us. This picture was taken just a few weeks ago when Mitty took Tristan and Ella bowling- and spoiled them rotten!
