This is my very favorite race to do every year. Running with Angels, we get to run in the gardens at Thanksgiving Point. Although running up and down the hills is not my favorite thing to do, running in the gardens and seeing all the beautiful flowers is the best thing ever. Kandace was the lucky one to run with me this year. She did great, even without too much training.
Okay, so she didn't really run too much, but she can walk pretty fast. I finished and came back to find her. Can you see why this is my favorite race? Just look at the scenery. I love going back into the gardens and looking at everything in slow motion.
Right after I took Kandace's picture I turned around to see this cute family ready to cross the path.
Then just ahead there was this little family, but they are bronze, I just thought it was funny. Kinda hard to tell which family is real.
Kandace and me at the finish line. This was just the starting of a very busy outside day. I went home and washed my car then spent the day outside in the yard, weeding, planting and prunning. I don't think we will ever have a yard a beautiful as the Gardens at Thanksgiving Point, but I am sure trying!
Casey's birthday was on Thursday, May 14th. We had him over on Sunday for his birthday dinner and our family's traditional "Ice Cream Cake". Thomas has really enjoyed this ice cream cake tradition and wanted to know how to make it so he can try it in Germany.
Casey is the big "24" now. Dang, he is almost as old as me. Maybe next year I will have him run with me so he can stay as young as me when he grows up. Happy Birthday Casey!
