This guy turned 7. Who says you don't get enough presents when it's "just" a family party year?
Henry's first grade class before their Thanksgiving feast. (The other class were Native Americans.)
Mid-November CB suffered through the Richmond marathon -- his time was 3:21, six minutes slower than he hoped. No Boston qualifier this time, but MUCH faster than most of us could ever dream of running 26.2 miles. He was on pace to finish under 3:15 until mile 25, when he said he "felt like he was going to die." (SO glad he didn't.)
Here he's just forcing himself to smile -- he was pretty hammered . . . George thought his medal was cool.

Oh, and I realized pictures of Sadie's birthday (the week before Halloween) never got put on the blog -- oops. It was a good day for her, I think.
Now we are looking forward to Thanksgiving and are so excited for our guests. My Mom, brother Sam, his girlfriend Addie, sis-in-law Erin, and her three kids are all coming. Yea! Should be a party, and hopefully I have enough food for Sam.

go CB! you've motivated Rob to start running again. He hopes to do a race or two, I think, if his bad knees can hold up.
