running and stuff

we made a whirlwind trip to OKC this past weekend.
my stud of a husband was running his 5th (it sure seems like more) half-marathon.
he was running with his dad and family friend michelle.
they've run all of them together.
it was cold but the boys were able to enjoy the hotel pool for a bit on saturday night.


fin mostly hung out on the steps where he could feel the ground beneath his feet.

sawyer thought he was big stuff "jumping" into the pool over and over to aj.

i love this picture. those boys love their daddy and he has room in his arms for all of them.

even after all that swimmng and getting to bed late, the boys still did not sleep well in the hotel room.
5 am came awful early after a long night.
luckily aj is a morning person so he was good to go.

there were 22,000 runners! this was the 10th annual memorial marathon to remember the OKC bombing.

michelle's daughter and niece helped keep sawyer happy.  he wasn't feeling great and was exhausted so he did not think being strapped into a stroller was a very cool idea.

 this was the look on his face most of the time:

aj looked like he'd just taken a jog around the block when he came running to the finish line after 13.1 miles.

no big deal.
