byron and brian ran the citizen times half-marathon this past weekend. while lori, carson, mary adelyn, and i had a great time cheering chasing them. amazingly, we were able to make it out the door with two kiddos in tow and arrive at mile marker 7 before ANY of the runners went by. so we sat up camp and told carson and mary adelyn to keep a look out...

and lookout they did.

that is, until the cheering section grew larger and the pots and pans started banging.

carson practiced cheering, "go dad-dy!", "go by-ren!", and "yay runners!" while mary adelyn made sure he didn't drop her 'ipod.'

mary adelyn was super excited when her daddy ran by,

and then she sat and wondered why he didn't stop.

and tried to attack the signs.

so, we quickly gathered our things and hurried to the finish line. i think i pulled my hamstring just trying to get there in time. sad, i know.

congrats to both daddies meeting their goal time and both babies (or should i say mommies) surviving the event. it was pretty obvious that we had the cutest cheering section, hands down.

so far each year has brought a better race day strategy and a new baby. don't worry, the moore's are providing the new baby next year. mary adelyn will still be sporting the 'only child' title.
