My high school's graduation was Saturday, May 23rd. The weather was nice, very windy, but overall it was a good day. That night Ryan, Caden, and I headed to Madison with Pam and Dick. We were staying in a hotel overnight since the Madison Marathon (half for me) started the next morning at 7 am. We were happy that we got to spend a little bit of time with Cara and Drew before they left for Chicago for the weekend. Jordon was paint balling, so we only got to see him for a few minutes.
Our hotel was great. We stayed at the Courtyard in Middleton. It was the nicest hotel I've been in in a long time. Caden had a good time too. Here are some shots of him enjoying the hotel bed.

Sunday morning was early for us, since the race started at 7. I barely made it there in enough time since the traffic was so backed up. I am not going to lie...the race was rough. My last time I ran the half I did it in two hours and 25 minutes. That was without a lot of training. This time I ran it in 3 hours 15 minutes! My time was horrible, but I am just happy that I finished. I was a hurting unit for the few days following the race. Here are some pics from after the race.

After the race was over I showered and we headed to Brat fest. It was a good day.
The next week went pretty fast since it is so close to the end of the school year. It seems like a race at school to get everything in before the last day. I just have to remind myself that if I miss anything this year, they will always have next year!
I have to say a huge CONGRATULATIONS to my brother Dave and his new beautiful wife Lynn. They got married in Las Vegas on the 22nd of May. I wish that we could have been there, but I am not able to take off of work. Here are some pics from their special day. We are so happy that Lynn is part of the family!
I have been working very hard to get my Project 365 album put together. I have been taking my pics everyday, and I have been good about journaling. Now I want to actually start to put it together. That will be my goal for next week! It seems like I always have some new goal related to pictures in some way. I will end this entry for now. Here are some other cute random pics. I will post again soon!
