Shamrock'n 1/2 Marathon

This morning I was up bright and early and off Sacramento to run my first official half marathon (13.1 miles). The race begins and ends at Raley Field. The course travels over the Tower Bridge, through Discovery park and Old Sac, and past the Capitol building. Along the way, runners are entertained by local musicians and bands. Who has time to think about being tired when there are so many distractions to see and hear??

The kids and Eric came to watch me finish the race. The boys greeted me with a congratulatory hug .

My Shamrock'n finishers medal!

Driving Miss Holly

Holly can now cruise our neighborhood in style while in her new jeep! This is probably not something that we would have ordinarily splurged on, but a friend was selling it very inexpensively because her older daughter had outgrown it. Holly loves to be the passenger while Tate or Carson test their driving skills. It even has a working radio!!
