The Running Man

Adam ran the Houston Marathon on Sunday, Jan. 18th. It was a beautiful day and we all loved being there to cheer him on. Adam finished the entire marathon in 3:07, qualifying him for the Boston Marathon! We were completely blown away with this time, since he beat his old marathon time by about 25 minutes. That is almost a minute a mile. At the end, though, Adam told me to remind him of the incredible pain he was in the next time he ever talks about wanting to run another marathon. Funny thing is that now he is now talking about doing next year's Boston. I guess this is a lot like giving birth - it is easy to forget the pain ;).

Bonfire

We had a bonfire a couple of weekends ago with our college students. It was awesome, as you can see. This is the effect of burning 21 dead Christmas trees all at one time. We brought hot dogs and marshmallows to roast, but since the fire was obviously so intense, the guys had to build a barrier for us to stand behind while roasting. Someone even called the fire department, but we weren't in trouble since we were outside of the city limits. This was quite an eventful night of fun and fellowship.

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday, my sweet girl! I love you and am so thankful that God brought you into our lives. You are a treasure.
