Dam to Dam

Adam ran dam to dam! It was his first race & he did a great job. We went to cheer him on which became a story to tell! Haha. Let's just say it involved loading six kids & 2 moms in a 10 passenger van at 6:30 am, a 7 month pregnant lady running a mile while pushing 90 lbs of child/stroller (couldn't miss out on cheering my hubby on!), making it to the finish line within 2 minutes of Adam crossing, losing our husbands, realizing we locked the keys in the car, waiting for someone to bring keys downtown (only later to find out that one of the doors was left unlocked), free sandwiches running out right as we get to the front of the line (resulting in 6 starving children & 4 starving adults), the possibility of needing to take 4 more adults home to Ankeny in our already over capacity van, & a whole lot of laughs ( & maybe a few cries). It was so worth it though! Life is always an adventure with children!
