I can’t believe it’s been over 2 months since I posted! That’s the longest I’ve gone without posting since I started this blog. Where did those 2 months go? File them under: Sickness (Kids and Adults). In the past 2 months, Amelie and Calder have had several colds, Bryce got the Can’t-Emerge-From-the-Bedroom Flu followed by a lingering cough, Bryce got a bacterial infection, I got pneumonia, and Amelie got a slight case of pneumonia. Don’t ask me what’s been going on. We take our vitamins and I clean our house, I promise!

But, anyway, that’s part of the reason I haven’t been posting. So, here are 3 posts to help me get caught up.

In family news, Bryce just ran his first half marathon and did a fantastic job! I was there with Calder and Amelie when he and Brad crossed the finish line and they looked great–not even winded! They did have some knee problems that they feel slowed them down a bit, but they finished the 13.1 miles in about 2 hours and 6 minutes, which I think is amazing. I think it’s so great that they got to do this together and be there to encourage each other. I’m so proud of both of them!

Oh, and here's the famous beard that Bryce is growing in anticipation of auditioning for a Church film.

The conquering heroes. Next stop: full marathon! I can't even imagine running 5 miles, myself, so I am definitely in awe.
