Whenever Melanie is around, Mckinlay prefers her to me. I think it is because she thinks Melanie might give her whatever it is that I wouldn't give to her. Or maybe Mckinlay just has really good taste. Probably both.Monday, April 21, 2008
Boston Marathon
After 3 years of living here, I finally made it to watch the Boston Marathon! This is my friend Amy. Mckinlay was right below us. Asleep. In her stroller. Don't ask me how she managed that one with all the noise.
It was awesome! We got to our spot just as the first two women were running by. What an inspiring site! Here were these two women surrounded by a police escort, with hundreds of people cheering for them, giving this race their all. It totally gave me the chills. These runnings were amazing! I was standing there clapping and cheering for an hour and I was tired. I can only imagine...

ReplyDeleteHey that was me not connor- just thought I would do what you did (actually it was accidental too)
ReplyDeleteYou cute little Bostonian, you! Way to support the runners. And you look adorable in those glasses, by the way.
ReplyDeleteGlad you were able to et this one in. It's such a tradition.

...or could it be that Mckinlay wants to be near to Paul? He is pretty cute!
ReplyDeleteYay for watching the marathon right out of my window! Except the constant supportive cheering gave me a migrane by the afternoon . . . oh well, the grass is always greener!

ReplyDeleteMy second cousin just ran in the Boston Marathon ... he did really well, just over 3 hrs. I can't even imagine running that fast!! I would have loved to be there and experience the festivities first hand.
I am so glad I found your blog, sorry it took longer to make a comment :) it's fun to find friends from High school and BYU. Blogs make you feel a little more connected to the outside world when you are home with 3 crazy kids! I love it though!!!
I know Adam S. from freshman year at BYU - he was one of my really good friends! He was and is a really good guy!
I love Boston! I always dreamed of living there when I was single. I just love it. There's so much to do and see. I'm glad you're enjoying it to the fullest!
ReplyDeleteSo freaking amazing. You are one of those people I could have just kissed during the SLC marathon, cheering on total strangers! Boston-- oh, I almost don't feel worthy to even type the words!
ReplyDeletethat makes me look really buff. pretty much i am. i should be running that marathon with strength like that. :)
