Happy Mother's Day! And what better way to spend Mother's Day weekend than running a marathon...wait, what? Okay, so it was a kids marathon but it still counts. Maggie and I ran in the first annual Tacoma City Kids Marathon this year. It was a 1.2 mile run to finish off 25 "miles" of activity she did in training. I was thrilled I made it without having a heart attack and very proud of Mags. I guess all that running in soccer is paying off.


Gary on the other hand, did not have such good luck with soccer. He injured (or re injured may be better) his knee at soccer practice and it looks like he'll have to go under the knife. Stay tuned for an update.

Maggie and I finished out the month with the third grade field trip to the zoo. Our group cruised through in record time and while I'm not entirely sure they even saw some of the animals, it was fun. Do you know the difference between an ape and a monkey? We do.
