First Marathon

Today we took the Brothers YZ to their first Boston Marathon. Greg wasn't running, but we were going to cheer on the Run for the Memory Team which raises money for the Alzheimer's Association. One of my co-workers lives

on the route at mile 3 and was having a party with an orange and water station. (As you can see in the picture of Liam, he poached an orange of his own.) On Sunday, Evan and I looked at pictures of the famous father/son duo of Dick and Rick Hoyt pictured to the right, and he was excited to see them pass by. There was lots other little boy excitement that I hadn't even thought of--police motorcycles, National Guardsmen, helicopters, fighter jets, and airplanes trailing signs. The boys had a ball, and more importantly, they did not cause any catastrophes by running onto the course.
