rock and roll/st. patty’s day!

March 27, 2013 by Anne Marie

Two weekends ago we had a bunch of friends and family in town for the Rock n Roll Marathon/Half Marathon and it was such a blast. Here are some picture highlights (that I meant to post last week at this time!):

Getting ready to rock at 6:30 a.m.

Marathoners.

(Can you tell they’re brothers?!? Haha they are basically twins in this picture!)

The start line! Running the National Mall never, ever gets old.

Finishers! We rocked that run. And the free sample section.
Matt’s marathon finish time: 3:28
My 1/2 marathon finishing time: 1:52 (Beat my Seattle time for 10 seconds. How’s that for training? Haha)

Little Miss Emma! After seeing her Dad finish his first marathon in an incredible 3:48 time, she realized she had big shoes to fill.

Refueling.

Emma prefers to roll underneath-the-table-style.

Homemade Irish car bombs with my homemade Bailey’s!

With only one shot glass…therefore we had to improvise.

Corri and I obviously handle shots so well. “They seemed like a good idea at the time.”

Irish (and Italian) eyes are smiling!

Busted.

We had such an amazing time with all of these fabulous people – and the weekend was capped off with news that we landed our desired apartment in DC! More details on that to come. :)
