My Hubby Rocks!

Matt had his Top of Utah Half Marathon Race on Saturday.  He wanted to beat his time from last year, and set a goal of 1 hour and 30 minutes.  He missed his goal by 9 minutes, but still beat his time from last year.  He did AWESOME!  Matt placed 15th out of his age division.  I am not sure what his overall score was, but there were 2,300 runners that day.  It is so fun to be there at the Finish Line, but I hope my mom will get to come cheer next year.  It was hard to try and watch for Matt, and keep the kids under control.  It was a fun day and the weather ended up being perfect.


Abbie was being so silly just dancing and spinning! The shirt I made for her had some big rocks drawn on and said, "My Dad Rocks!"
Note to self: fabric paint sketches do not work the same as pencil drawing sketches.  The rocks look much cooler sketched on paper:) 

 Asher was saying, "Good job Daddy, run!" 
For Asher's shirt, I used the same black fabric paint and did a stippling effect.  I really like how it turned out.

Asher had to carry around the sign that Matt's sister made for him.

Our brother in law also won the race.  He set the goal after losing 60 pounds.  His dad ran it as well.  I am so proud of all of them for meeting this goal. They did so well!
