Country Music Marathon!


Well I hate to brag (I really dont...hehe) but I am so proud of Roger for running the Music City Marathon in Nashville in 82 degree heat in 4:08! Unbelievable! I am swelling with pride! His 4 months of training paid off and we couldn't be more thrilled for him. We headed out Friday Morning to Nashville and to stay and hang out with the Lynch klan and boy did we have fun! Ella Catherine (Matt and Amy's 2 yr old) played and played. They bathed together, they danced in their matching Elmo p.j.'s after bath time, they chased each other all around the house, they lounged in their lawn chairs and chalked up the driveway and even shared food and drink and TOYS!  They were like mini soul mates, haha! Campbell enjoyed watching the two of them and loved the wagon rides they all got to take together! That was so fun to see for all of us considering EC is going to be a Big Sis in just 3 weeks. We cant thank the Lynchs enough for the food and fun and hospitality! They took complete care of us while in town! We couldn't have done it w/out them! After the marathon Matt and Amy had lined us up a sitter for an adults celebration night, which was a blast! Lime is this really cool new place in the West End of Nashville and we got reservations on the patio and fresh Mojitos (sp?), yummy! It was such a great weekend and it was great to hang out with friends and Airey even got to have his 1st slumber party...Wow what a weekend!
the trio waiting on Roger at mile 26!
Roger with Medal in hand on the Cumberland River (sorry i forgot to rotate it!)
wow what a finish! he is still standing! he had to seeek the Medical team right after, he thought he was going to pass out and starting seeing white...scary...but they gave him salt packets, ice and hydration and he bounced right back! What a trooper in 80 degree weather!
