Finally Friday!

Today, I drove 5 hours from Paducah, KY to come home to run the marathon. I am working a startup/new project implementation at a manufacturing plant which means 13 hours shifts and lots of junk food! I am so happy to be back in Cincinnati for a few days, and I plan to go back to Paducah on Monday. Tonight I met up with Mom, Dad, and Amber downtown for dinner. I haven't seen Amber in two weeks, and I haven't seen my parents since February. It was nice to have the whole family together and we chose Universal Grille for dinner. They have a new menu and the food was fabulous as usual, dawlings!
Amber and I spotted the Flying Pig Scooter on Fourth Street downtown and since my mom is scrapbooking this whole adventure for us, she insisted that we take a picture. Attached is us being hams...(haha, that makes me laugh) and posing as usual for the camera. Can you guys tell us apart yet? I want to see some guesses!

Our plan tomorrow is to go to Lunken Airport around 9:00 AM for an easy 5 mile walk with the family. Dad is going to do a run/walk exercise, while mom, Amber and I will just walk. We are going to the Expo around 2 tomorrow where I imagine we will act like kids in a candy store! I love freebies. Tomorrow night we are going to have an early casual dinner probably at Indigo in Hyde Park and then call it an early night. We are getting up at 4:00 AM on Sunday, and we want to get plenty of rest. Wish us luck, and thanks to everyone for the encouraging words!

Good luck! Hope to see you all at the starting line.

Tell you apart? - I can't even keep it straight when you sign your names at the end of the posts. ;)

Crystal is on the right... No wait, that's Amber. No, it's Crystal.

Either way, so glad you're able to spend time with your family and inspire them to walk/run as well.

Good luck tomorrow morning and I'll be looking for you! Can't wait!
