Yipee! What an accomplishment! Your pics made the race kind of look fun even. Glad you are back safe. I saw Matt today and told him he was looking like this weekend was a breeze for him. I told him that probably meant more girls weekends ahead. He was pretty quick to laugh in my face. But what a good hubby you have to support you!!!!
