A Marathon Christmas

This weekend my parents came up from Houston to celebrate an early Christmas with us and to watch Brad run his first marathon. We opened presents Sat. afternoon and Santa was VERY kind to Claire. She got lots of clothes, shoes, hats, pj's and other super cute clothes! And we got our double jogging stroller!!! No, I'm not pregnant but I figured it makes sense to go ahead and get the double. We all went to church and then out to dinner Sat. night. Sunday morning we woke up early to cheer Brad on. My Dad mapped out spots along the course so we could stop to cheer him on. It was so much fun to watch Brad run his first marathon. The weather was horrible (for a runner). 75 degrees and 30 mph winds. Claire, me, Mom, Dad, Heather and Brad's parents were all there with our sign. Brad did great and we are all so proud of him that he accomplished his goal of completing a 26.2 mile marathon!!!
