Our Grampee finished his 27th CONSECUTIVE HOUSTON MARATHON today! He did it virtually which means we had the honor of cheering him on and celebrating through the neighborhoods. Yesterday, we played games and Gamee made homemade manicotti so we could get his pasta in. The kids made signs and a finish line for the big day. This morning, all the grandkids got a chance to cheer Grampee on in the neighborhood and even walk alongside him for a few miles. He timed it just right to cross the "finish line" right in front of the house. The neighbors may have thought we were crazy with all the screaming and celebrations, but we are always so proud when Grampee finishes. After resting and showering, we ate the traditional subway sandwiches and enjoyed being together. The drive it takes to do this is truly amazing to witness. Way to go Grampee, we love you! Isaiah 40:31
