Jingle Bell 5K Run

David ran in the Peachtree City Jingle Bell 5K Run this morning. It has become a family tradition to run a race around Thanksgiving each year for David and all of his siblings in honor of David's dad who passed away last year from lymphoma. David's dad's birthday is around TG each year so it is a way to commemorate his life and a commitment to exercise, a healthy body and a healthy way of life.
David ran the race which he described as being much more uphill than expected in just under 28 minutes! We are very proud of him and his efforts and I know his Dad would be too. For this race, they tied jingle bells on their shoes and now Drew is wearing them on his own shoes. They also had Santa and Mrs. Claus there, and Drew was able to meet them both. We even had some time during the race to play on the playground while David was running. Beva was so happy she was able to join us in the family activity too!
