This weekend, Brendan ran in Pat's Run. It was a first for us, and next year I think we will all participate from running to walking..it was a great time cheering Brendan on.   We got up early 4:30 ish and 6 of us where out the door by 5:15. I had the girls, sleep in their comfy clothes, so all we did was put on flip flops and head out the door, didn't even brush their hair, no vanity at 4:30am.  I had prepacked some breakfast foods, to eat on the sidelines.  Brendan finished in the top 10%!! Whooohoo!!! Very proud of my boy who didn't shy from the challenge even when his friends didn't follow through. It was a great event and I loved how the family came together. I think we may have a new tradition!
