Tomorrow G and I are picking up K and heading for Indianapolis. Later in the day, E, N, and M will meet us at the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner. Then hopefully we will all get a good night's sleep in our room at the downtown Embassy Suites, so we will wake up rested and ready to go to the . . .
Indianapolis Monumental Marathon!
E is going to run the marathon (her second time) and G and K are running the 5k just for fun. If we had planned ahead, M could have run with them, but she's a faster runner so she probably would have left them in the dust. : / Nate and I will be happy to find a Starbucks and chill until G and K are done, and then we'll all pile in the Suburban and head out to find E somewhere along the course, hopefully around the halfway point.
I am thankful that our family has this pre-Thanksgiving opportunity to be together. Usually I see K at least several times each month and I just saw E a month ago in Decatur, but it's been almost three months since I've seen M. The last time we were together, it was the week before fall semester started at Purdue -- that was a long time ago and a lot has happened since then.
It will be good for us to be together again, even if it's only for a brief time. : )
