(UPDATED) Zoe Meets 'The Machine'

Here are some pictures that Janie captured of Scott and Zoe's first meeting. Aren't these great?!










Zoe, Lisa, Megan, and I drove up to Maryland this weekend to watch Dad and Scott run in the JFK 50 Mile race. It was SO much fun.



Zoe and Scott met for the first time and Zoe had a blast with him. Mike and Scott have similar personalities and I think that confused Zoe a bit. Scott didn't look like Mike but he sure acted silly like him.







Right before the race started. Zoe and I were still at the hotel (it was too early for Zoe to be up and about...she needed her beauty sleep).




Nervous excitement.




Getting re-fueled at an aid station.




Here they come!



The JFK 50 was a new experience for all of us. It was Dad and Scott's first time to run it (see Scott's blog here for his awesome race report) and mine, Lisa, Megan, Zoe, and Janie's first time to watch one. Scott's new nickname is 'The Machine'. You'll understand when you read his race report. It was an experience we will probably never forget.





Zoe was so cute all bundled up in the blankets. I think she liked being in the cold all bundled and cuddled up next to me because she kept falling asleep in my arms. It was so sweet.


It was just a great weekend. It was so much fun to hang out with the family (except Zoe and I missed Mike a lot...he couldn't get time off work 'cause he's still the newbie). And, of course, it's always fun taking a road trip with Lisa and Megan!







North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, and Maryland are BEAUTIFUL in the Fall!


Click here to see more pictures and a few videos of the weekend (Lisa took 95% of these pictures while I was taking care of Zoe, didn't she do a great job?!).

    it was a fun weekend, wasn't it?

    p.s. i had no idea you were taking a video when i was holding zoe. i thought you were just taking a bunch of photos. i'm so embarrassed. i'm usually such a mature adult human being.
