Such a fun day in St Joe

I slept on the sofa in the movie room.  It was more comfortable on the sofa than on the pull out bed.  There were energy bites.  4 for runners and  3 for spectators, (unless you were Kane and took some whenever anyone offered them to him.)   The 3 pony express runners left for St. Joseph about 7 am.   Mandy ran the 5K.   Luke and Matt ran the half marathon 13.1 miles  in less than 2 hours.   We were there for the start of the race. We had fun driving to see the runners.  Karen and Jason navigated, Becky drove.  The rest of us got out and cheered.  After the race we went home and had sandwiches and naps. Sadly, Piper got into some rat poison, but parents  caught it soon enough that  no damage done.   Torren and I went to play catch with the  football.  We left for the game about 10 minutes before Matt first told us.   Kids loved the jump houses.  The game wasn't going the best for the Griffins so we went home at half time.  For some reason Matt and Luke were tired.   Second half the team played well and won the game. After Becky got home we ate great chili that she had made.  We also loved the peppered up pretzel recipe.  Oh yes and the cookie bars ... with frosting... and Haley's avocado glac.  We did not lack for food, very very good food. Haley took the 6 cracker challagne in 1 minutes from Jason.  All were happily in bed by 10:15.   Just tuckered out.
