Memorial Day Race and Parade

Getting ready for the race.
Cousin Nathan joined us, too!

Ready, set, GO!
Jackson at the start of his first-ever race, the 1 mile "Fun Run!"

Crossing the finish line!
Way to go, Buddy!


Davis finished the 5K with a great time of 24:10


Doing cool-down stretches and getting ready to watch the parade

Daddy had a great run, too. His time was 22:50.

Some of our friends from church were in the parade

The boys loved this car with the GT flag on the front

Carter's favorite thing about the Memorial Day Parade - CANDY!

The antique cars, trucks and tractors were really neat
My patriotic girl with the flag she made all by herself.
The pole reads:
"United States of America Flag
Love, Tori"

What this day is really all about~
a reenactment reminding us that freedom is NOT free!

Greater love has no one than this,
that he lay down his life for his friends.
