Half Marathon,Soccer and the Puyallup Fair

Early Saturday morning, Sean and I woke up to head to the JBLM half Marathon on base. The race didn't start until 8 but to get on base was no easy task. We finally arrived along with Tamee and Jenny and got ready to run our hearts out. The race started and it was fine until about mile 2 and then the rain came down. And it didn't let up for the next 11.1 miles. We were all cold and wet. I ran very slow, even walking at times. I wasn't into the race at all and I started it knowing I wasn't going to break any times, I was just running it to get ready for Leavenworth which is 4 weeks away. I finished around 2:14(my fastest is 1:56). Sean came in at 2:01 barely breaking a sweat.:) I think I'm burned out on running and I'm ready to change it up a little. Starting a gym today so hopefully that will mix things up a little. And it's here again....another season of soccer. Connor had his first game on Saturday as well. He loved playing and had a good time but unfortunately they lost. Hope this Saturday goes better.


Connor just got done bouncing it off his head.(that would explain the weird look!)




After Connor's soccer game Sean and I took Cierra and Brooke to the Puyallup Fair. Kaylee and Connor were with their dad so it worked out perfectly since they both went on Fair day with friends. I told them if they went with friends, they would miss our family fair day. They didn't seem to mind. I guess they are teenagers...
















Afterwards we went to Elements, the new frozen yogurt shop downtown. It was super yummy!:)

(excuse Sean's look, I think he has a brain freeze!)
