Chicago Marathon

Last weekend, Scott, Jane, and I hopped in the car and made the trek up to Chicago for the weekend. Nana and Papa, BethAnn and Kyle, and Kyle's parents, all met us in the windy city on Saturday, just in time for the big race on Sunday. Jane had fun hanging out with everyone. She spent time reading books with Nana:Papa kept Jane warm on race morning while the whole crew cheered on the runners and waited to spot Kyle, BethAnn, and I at mile 12.
Yeah - they found me out of 45,000 runners! (Take note of the hat and gloves. At the start, it was 35 degrees. A bit different from Memphis weather!)
We all made it to the finish - go team! It was a great run through the many Chicago neighborhoods with over 1.5 million spectators cheering us along the course. Jane was happy to see Mommy at the end and particularly interested in my medal.

Thanks to Daddy and Jane for being my biggest fans!

As an extra bonus, we got to spend time with Ashley, Damian, and Liam! They graciously let us hang out with them on Friday and Sunday nights. What a treat for us, although, we were so tired from the drive and the marathon that we forgot to take pictures!
