SO Proud

Andy decided a few months ago (like 9) that he wanted to try running. Any of you who know Andy know that he is blessed to be good at pretty much anything he does~lucky guy! :) This past weekend he & his sister, Nikki, ran their first half marathon together. They ran the Utah Valley Marathon and both of them loved it! Anyone who runs is seriously my hero, it is so hard.
Here is a pic of 3 of our girls and two of Nikki's kids. It's easy to figure out who belongs to who~ours are the blondies are her's are the 'brownies'. :)
Here is Andy making the 'final approach'.
The girls were able to run with Andy the final little bit of the race~Hadlie seemed to think they ran 1/2 way, but it was really only a little bit. The girls & I made shirt for them and Nikki's kids so they had something to show their pride.
This is Andy & Nikki with their younger brother Jeff. Andy's parents and brother were so kind to come and show their support.
They of course had to pose for an official picture as proof of all of their hard work. Andy is already gearing up for his next race which is next weekend with my sister-in-law, Andrea. They are going to be doing a relay up in Idaho called "To Bone and Back."
