Quick Update...

I don't have pictures downloaded from today yet (and I plan to add more vacation pictures soon), but wanted to post a quick update (so no one can give me a hard time). Grace ran another 5K today and I think it was probably the largest attended event she has run to date. It was "Abby's Run" (www.abbysrun.com) which was started as a result of a young child who passed away from Myocarditis. There's more info on the website so you can check it out. I'm not sure how Grace did yet (still waiting for the result to be posted). The event had 2300 people running/walking the 5K. It was incredible. They were able to raise $83,000 for further research for Miocarditis. Grace finished the race in about 26:20 (I think.. I need to verify this after the results are posted).

We are experiencing more beautiful weather here and have not needed "warm" clothes yet (yeah). Everyone is bracing for a cold spell that's supposed to hit us this week (and it might get as cold as 58 degrees during the day.. oh boy!). The colors on the trees are starting to change here and it is unusual for us to be able to enjoy the changing colors in shorts!

More soon....
