More Running and Father's Day
I feel like I am behind. Brandon ran another race, just a week after the half marathon, and since there was a kids 1 mile run he thought it would be fun for William and Caitlyn to run also. So he ran the 5k of the Scenic River Classic and then came home and got me and the kids so they could run. Of course we forgot our camera. I was a little worried about Caitlyn because she hadn't ever gone an entire mile at one time. William has, because he likes to go to the track with Brandon every now and then. But parents were allowed to run with their kids so Brandon ran with Caitlyn. Brandon won his age group and both the kids finished so I guess it was a success.
William was excited to wear a number and the fact that he got a medal for finishing.

When the kids lined up at the beginning they were right in front. This was only a problem because there were bigger kids behind them. I wasn't close enough to tell Brandon to move them before it started and I was really afraid that Caitlyn would get pushed down. She was okay, but William got run over. Don't you love his bloody elbow? He even had a scrape on his nose and both knees were scraped and bruised. But he finished the race so I was pretty proud of him.
Run a race one day, Father's day the next makes for a pretty full weekend. William was really excited to give Brandon his gift, The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan, and all of the kids made him cards. We went up to my parents' house for dinner and Brandon said that he had a good day. Love you tons babe!
