The Visit and The Race

Yesterday, Grandpa T and Nancy arrived from upstate New York and they brought the cold weather with them! We went from 93 degrees on Tuesday to about 45 this morning. Anyway, Christopher has been having a great time with our visitors. Here he is with Grandpa T playing trains.

I'm pretty sure Grandpa T will need a lot of naps while he hear because Christopher is requesting that he plays every five minutes! Chris even helped put away their bags when they got here.

This morning we all participated in the Vasculitis Foundation's annual 5K Walk/Run. When Chris found out he was doing a "race," he was very excited. But when we got there and it didn't start for 30 minutes, he was not happy. Apparently he believes the race should start when he gets there! Good thing Tristan was there though. The two boys ran around for a while to warm up. Here are Christopher's parents after the race:

The run was very nice. It started off downhill which can only mean one thing... the end would be uphill! Anyway, along the way, Christopher had to go potty in the woods so we made a pit stop. While he was peeing in the woods (on the plants) he said, "I'm watering the plants so they can grown." Hahaha! Anyway, we got back to the finish line to cool down. Here are Brian and Grandpa T on their way back too:

Our friends, the Eakins, as well as Randa (Maddie's mom) joined us also for the run and we really appreciate them coming out! It was a cold day but a fun and healthy one and some money was raised for the Vasculitis Foundation!
