A few weeks ago Seth's cousin called and asked if he & Scott would like to join their team for the Hood to Coast relay. Here is some info for those who are not familiar with this race: it is 197 miles and starts at Mt. Hood and ends at the Pacific Ocean in Seaside, Oregon. There are 12,000 runners and 3,500 volunteers. It is the largest relay in the world! Their teams start time was 7 am Friday and they finished the race Saturday around 2:30pm. Friday Kathy & I took the kids to one of the exchange points so we could see Seth. Then Saturday I took the kids and drove out to the coast so we could be there to watch Seth's team cross the finish line. After the race we played on the beach for a bit with Kimmie. She loves the "BBBIIIGGG" water. She also enjoyed chasing the seagulls while screaming "I get em!! I get em!" The water was super cold but she didn't mind.
We are off to Michigan tomorrow to spend Labor Day with the family. I will try to blog while we are there, but who knows how busy we will be. We are hoping to visit family we haven't seen in years and friends we haven't seen in many many years.
Here are some pictures from the last week.......
