26.2

Brandon got up bright and early at 3:15 a.m. and I drove him to the Embassy Suites where he caught a bus to the starting line of the Big Sur Marathon. He waited around with the other anxious runners for over an hour in the cold until 6:45 when the race started. The kids and I waited for him at the finish line in Carmel.
Brandon ran 26.2 miles in about 4 hours 45 minutes. This is him coming out of the post-race munchie tent.

I am more proud of Brandon today than I have probably ever been before! He is so strong mentally and physically and I really admire him for this amazing accomplishment.

Happy Easter!

We got dressed up in our California best (T-shirts and jeans) and headed to church this morning which was held at the highschool football field. We enjoyed a very wonderful Easter service on the metal bleachers together! We were blessed with beautiful weather and a wonderful message..... He is risen!!
The kids enjoyed dying eggs and we had a fun indoor egg hunt. Happy Easter everyone!
