The Nelson's and The 1/2 Marathon!




Man was it fun having the Nelson's here. On Friday night, we all went to my parent's house and had a big pre-race dinner. There was salmon, pasta, and tons of fruit. I mean tons. So much, that we ended up playing with it. I was sitting, minding my own business, talking to Sharon, when I looked over at Kelsey and she looked like someone from Who'ville! I lost it, and everyone caught on. She had shoved 2 grapes under her upper lip. A bunch of us followed her lead and had tummy-aches afterward from laughing so hard. It was great. Then we had a big fooseball tournament.




On Saturday morning, we got up bright and early and went to the race. We almost did not make it in time! It was an awesome experience, 30,000 people were running! Blake, my dad, my mom, and I all ran most of the race together and finished in under 2 hours and 25 minutes. It was a blast.




Monday, I got to go to lunch with the Nelson's before they left. We ate at Monelle's and it was DELICIAMOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone visiting the South needs to eat there. It is the most delicious Southern food ever. You sit at a huge table with atleast 12 people and they bring big bowls of everything that you pass around, starting with rolls, going through salads, side dishes, main dishes, and finishing off with desert. It's freakin incredible.


Cozmo has a couple of baskets around the house that I put his toys in. The other day he did something really cute. Not only did he go and get a toy out of his basket in the kitchen, like he usually does, but he brought the entire basket into the living room from the kitchen!!!
