Kids Rock Marathon

Brody completed his 2nd marathon on Sunday, April 28.  He was fortunate this year to be able to run with his school.  Nannie Berry has an awesome running club led by his Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Cook, and another teacher, Mrs. Fields.  The kids met after school every Monday and Wednesday for over 3 months.  They definitely got in more than their 25 miles!

On Sunday, several thousand kids from all over met at the Titans Stadium to run the last 1.2 miles of their marathon.  I was so happy that Brody asked me to run with him again this year.  I cherish these sweet moments with him!  He ran this last mile faster than I have ever seen him run and never once stopped to walk.  I don't think he was even breathing heavy!  We are so proud of him and all of the other runners that completed this huge task.  We are also very thankful to Mrs. Cook and Mrs. Fields for making this happen for the Nannie Berry Kids.  RUN NBE!!! 












Twilight Athens 2013

After having so much fun at last year's Twilight Athens Weekend, we decided to make the trip again this year.  Jason, Jeremy, and Tracy even participated in one of the big events on Saturday morning...a 50k race.  They came in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, and we are so proud of them!! 

Since it was raining on and off, the kids fun zone did not get set up this year.  The boys were very disappointed to see no bounce houses or the bungee trampoline.  We did have a lot of fun watching the BMX flat land and ramp riders though.  They are absolutely incredible!  Looking forward to next year's event and hoping for no rain!

Brody's First Field Trip

Brody had his first field trip on Thursday, April 18 to the Nashville Zoo.  He was very excited about this field trip, especially about riding a school bus for the first time!  It was a beautiful day, and I had a great group of kids to enjoy it with!  I am extremely thankful that I have the opportunity to enjoy these special times with our boys!!!

Easter 2013

Easter morning started with two very excited boys!!  They were so happy to see that the Easter Bunny had brought them "prizes."









We took our annual Easter Family pictures.  I love having these pictures to look back on and see how much the boys have grown and changed.







This was our year to go to Jeremy and Tammy's house for Easter.  We had a great lunch and the kids had a fun egg hunt with Emilee and Kylee.  Fortunately, Jeremy and Tammy have a big basement to do the egg hunt in, since it was cold and raining.
