GloRun Fun!!

What a fun weekend we had!  I couldn't have been more ready for Friday night to come.  After a long week at work, my cube was about to make me go insane!  My mom came into town on Friday night, so we got to spend some time with her eating at Macaroni Grill and shopping at Opry Mills.  Thanks Mom for the new clothes! :) 
 
Saturday morning we woke up early to take Mom to meet the Nashville gang.  They are spending the week in Florida for their yearly vacation.  After we dropped her off and said goodbye, Grant and I headed to Bowling Green to watch Gabbi and the Magic play in the state softball tournament.  After one rough game on Saturday, they ended up winning the whole thing on Sunday!  Unfortunately we had to leave early Saturday to get back to Nashville, meet up with the Parker's, and run the GloRun!
 
We love when the Parker's come to visit!  The whole family came down and brought Karson with them to run!  There were probably 10-15,000 people there running.  It was crazy, but so much fun!  I haven't exactly been in marathon running mode lately, so Taylor, Peyton, and I stayed together.  Luckily for me, Peyton hasn't ran in like 5 years, so she provided plenty of entertainment while we were running.  When she could get words out they went something like...This is terrible. Why did no one warn me about this.  Is it over yet? etc... haha!  She did great, though, and we finished in about 40 min. 
 
All of the runners before the race.
 
 
So glad Karson got to tag along!
 
Guess who's shoes are who's?!
 

They had tunnels every so often during the course with fluorescent lights so we would "Glo"
 
Almost finished!
 
 

 
We didn't have time to eat before the race, so we headed for a midnight snack at Applebee's on our way home!  We spent the rest of the night rubbing butter on Dax's legs to try to get the glow paint out of his leg hairs...yuck! 
 
Sunday we slept in after being up so late, went to Bojangles for the first time for lunch, headed to the mall for a bit, and then said goodbye to the Parker's.  Its always so hard after having a house full all weekend to see everyone go.  Boo for living in Nashville!  After a little nap we met up with Curt and Lindsey, headed to church, and then finished the night playing games!
 
We had a great, busy weekend spending time with friends and family. Yay for people coming to visit!
