Happy Belated Father's Day to my Dad, my Stepdad, and my Father-in-Law and to all the other Fathers out there. Nothing big or exciting here for Father's Day. This week is a pretty big week in our house with Ashley's graduation and our 10 year wedding anniversary, both on Friday.
Saturday I ran the Race for the Cure. More than 25,000 people participated in Raleigh for the event. It is sad to see all the pink papers on people's backs saying "in memory of". I thought about Terri's sister-in-law Rena who just passed away. Through all the sadness of those who were lost, there were those survivors who were celebrated at the event as well.
Saturday night we went to a bluegrass concert in a town called Saxapahaw. The music was great as always, but something I never thought I would see...Ashley rode a kayak attached to a zip line. And yes, I do have pictures, when I get some breathing room I will post them.
So Sunday was just church and hanging out. Audrey had a playdate with a friend at her school, and we had dinner at a friend's house and then enjoyed their neighborhood pool. Audrey didn't nap on Sunday, so she crashed pretty hard when we got home.
The only other noteworthy thing worth mentioning from this weekend was a water main break in the water treatment plant that supplies our town. Sunday morning our phone rang at 7:00am, and it was the town letting us know that we were only to use our water for drinking and cooking until further notice. So far, we still have water and we are expected to be back to normal by today or tomorrow. Luckily our gym is not in our town and they have showers there.

that's pretty bad about the main break--- especially with the way water is in the South-- YIKES!
Sounds like a good weekend and happy early anniversary!
Ok,,I knew we were pretty close to each other, but I got the same call Sunday morning! Only I have cheated and showered this morning! oopps!!
Can't wait to see the zipline pictures!
I have always wanted to do a walk/run...you have encouraged me! You got her in a canoe on a zipline? Wow...I can't get mine to get in a boat at all!
The water main deal sucks! I hope it's fixed now! And congrats to Ashely on her graduation! That's a big milestone.
Happy Belated Father's Day to all the Dad's / Father's out there from me too (I didn't even post anything, how sad am I?)
