November 15-16
Friday night we went to a fundraiser for AMAR, it is to help Iraqi children. It was a unique fundraiser but I thought it was really cool. We were able to shoot some amazing guns and see a 500 pound pumpkin explode. I enjoy shooting but am not a master gunman so it was really fun to see my dad, Bryan and Dan get excited about them.
Brent getting ready to shoot the big gun!
It is always fun trying out new things!
Kelsi found the camera
Dan Shooting another gun, I shot it as well, it's so accurate I finally hit a target ha ha
We were able to get a tour of the convoy
This gun was HUGE!
Dan was a perfect shot with the machine gun, Bryan got a big kick back ha ha
The Great Pumpkin meets its demise!
We spotted a train and had to climb aboard. Kelsi was scared we would get caught
Saturday we finished our first ever half marathon. Honestly I never thought we would do one or that I could possibly run that much since I have always hated running. I dreaded it, but we got there and once it started I started to feel better about it. Around miles 7-9 our knees were hurting but we pushed on and we finished! The last two miles seemed endless since we pushed ourselves. Dan finished far ahead of me at 1 hour and 54 minutes, I came in at 2 hours and 12 minutes for a total of 13.2 miles! It was a blast and we have decided we will be doing more! We are accomplishing things we never thought we would do so I am excited to see how far we can push ourselves!
We did it! We were cold, wet and sore but it was so worth it!
