A Fun Weekend!

Clint has successfully completed another marathon bringing his total to 11. Last weekend we packed the van, headed to St. George and watched Clint and his brother Mark complete the St. George marathon while over 6,000 others ran as well. It was a crazy mass of people and to top it all off, it rained the "entire" race. Despite the horrible weather conditions, both Clint and Mark had their personal best. Way to go guys!



We enjoyed the rest of the weekend with Mark and Becky and Luke and Jill. One of the afternoons we had a picnic lunch at the Town Center Park in St. George and then ice cream at Judd's. If you want a blast from the past, Judd's is the place. It is a quaint, old pioneer store with all of it's charm still in tact. While at the Town Center Park the kids splashed in the water there and got completely soaked. They didn't seem to mind.

Hmmm...too many flavors to choose from

All soaked but still smiling



We absolutely enjoyed our time with both Mark and Becky and Luke and Jill. We were lucky to be there when the weather was actually beautiful. It's always nice to get away and to be able to spend time with family!

Skipping with Aunt Jill on the way to Judd's for a treat.

Good for Clint. I knew he was a runner but I didn't realize what a Marathon Man he was. That is so exciting!!!

Sounds like you guys had a great weekend too. I love St. George and really miss living so close - well closer. And what a break from the weather.

I'm so glad you had such a good time. At least you didn't have to exert yourself as much as Clint did! But don't forget--we're going to run a race together soon!!

What a wonderful trip!! Clint is "the man!" How amazing that he is so determined to do those marathons and how great he had his best time ever. Even better is that you make it a family affair!!
