All in a Days Work

Saturday, April 3
6am - wake up (begrudgingly) and get ready for the Easter Bunny Run in Clemson.

7:30am - arrive and get our starting info for the race.

8:06am - The half marathon starts and Bobby & Dave are off!!

8:10am - The 5K starts and Tommy & I are "off"! I'm running along, talking to Tommy, and
the next thing I know ... he's gone! He had stopped running and started walking. I was left
talking to myself!

47 minutes later - I finish my first 5K! No pictures of me yet. Karen was waiting for me at
the finish line and she'll email me my picture soon so I can post it for you guys!

57 minutes later - Tommy straggles in. He finished his first 5K and I'm very proud of him!!

Finally the half marathoners begin to finish....
Bobby comes down the hill and thinks he's about to finish. Sorry bud, you still have to go up another hill and around!

Now you're almost at the finish. Coming down the hill and then...

he finishes!!! 2min & 20sec faster than his last 1/2 marathon!!!

Dave is not too far behind.

And he's done!

Tommy relaxes while we're waiting for the guys to finish.


2pm - I'm showered and fed. I take the kids to the Easter Egg Hunt at Oconee State Park.
And they loved it too. All of the plastic eggs were filled with little trinkets.

4pm - We're back at the State Park for Dave, Karen and Bobby's joint birthday party.
Dave & Karen looking @ the photo album of old pics we gave him for his b-day.

I'm sporting the awesome hat Dave & Karen bought me for my b-day. Hannah is enjoying the finger paints I bought for her.

Dave & Bobby
Who's really cooking?

Hannah fed the geese. But this one was mean (and bigger) than the others. He would flap his wings and run them off - which scared Samuel. So my mom had to hold him the entire time they were by the lake.

The Clark's Next Big Adventure

So much for keeping the blog updated this year 😂  The Clark family is embarking on another adventure though and it's too big not to doc...
