Bloomsday 2009!


We planned on meeting up with the Deulings, but Lisa didn't get much sleep the night before and had a difficult time leaving the house so we ended up getting there just in time for the delayed start of the stroller section. So we end up starting at the very back of the pack, but we worked our way through dodging left and right. I remember having to say "excuse me, just trying to catch up with my 85 year old Grandpa!" as he sped away from me! We kept a pretty good pace, in my opinion, at two hours ten minutes. We all had a great time especially Gabi. I think she might have been a little overwelmed in the begining with the crowd. She kept hiding under her blanket. She was the perfect little passenger even if she wasn't feeling her best, she didn't show it! She kept us going throughout the 7.5 miles with a smile on her face!


So we did finally catch up with the Deulings after the race and shared some snacks before heading home. Here is Isaiah and Gabi sporting thier race shirts. Gabi was playing peek a boo :)


Gabi wanted to show off her own running skills on the way home as we walked back to our car. Here are the geese we stopped to talk to. They were definately not afraid of people, but I think Gabi was a little afraid of them! She didn't want to get any closer.
