The Boston Marathon was today--the Boston, Georgia mini-marathon, that is-- so we loaded up the kids and drove over to check things out. In addition to the race, they have other fun stuff like arts & crafts vendors, games for the kids, and a parade. We looked around town and then went in to Boston Bar-B-Que to have lunch just as the parade was starting. We had a table in front of the window and parade went down the street right in front of us, so we could see everything but got to be inside in comfy chairs and out of the wind. It was great! Kenton and Edward ran out and picked up a few pieces of candy tossed from the parade while we were waiting for our food. We finished our meal just as the parade ended and the restaurant started to get busy, then went over to let Kenton play in the bouncy house for a few minutes. It was $2 well spent. After ten minutes or so of intense running and bouncing, he was exhausted and ready to come home and nap. Tomorrow we're meeting up with Nana and Papaw in Cordele for the big Thomas the train event. I can't even imagine how excited he's going to be!
