1st Place

I Googled Claire and Joey the other day and saw something interesting. They are included in a running website that tracks every runner that has ever finished a road race.

A few years back, while we were in Alaska, the kids and I did the Mosquito Meander 5K in Fairbanks. It turns out that Joey and Claire finished the race 1st overall in their respective age groups - which would be 2 and 4.

Now they will always know that they "won" their first road race ever run.

Now we won't let on that Claire did most of the run in a stroller and we took quite a leisurely pace otherwise.

Fall

Welcome to the best time of the year. Cool mornings, warm afternoons. And the start of hockey season. Yes!

Oh no, Clark. They don't close Florida.

First Day of School - 2008

Claire jumped right out of bed and was ready for the day.



Joey - not so much.
