Country Music Marathon

We just got home about an hour ago from Nashville and Erik's first marathon. He didn't do as well as he wanted to, but the conditions were not on his side. It was the hottest day Nashville has seen in years, with temperatures in the 80s.
While there, we got to see our friends Ali and Jarrod, along with their daughter, Sydney. Kayleigh and Sydney are just a few months apart and had so much fun together! We haven't see Ali and Jarrod since their wedding in December of 2003, but we have kept in touch and had fun actually getting to hang out in person! They also have a golden-doodle (golden retriever and poodle mix) that Kayleigh loved. He was huge but so gentle with the little girls. Ali is also pregnant with her second child, which she has found out is a girl.
Erik and Amy drove up and back with us. They were smart and brought movies to watch. Kayleigh's favorite was "Happy Feet", which she has never seen. She knows all about Mumble, though, and loved watching him and the other penguins sing and dance.
I'm sure I'm leaving out some details from this weekend, but it's been a long day and my brain is tired. Enjoy the pictures.
