may 7th - broad street

Daddy had to sneak out at 6:30am to get the subway and make it up to the start line. When Mommy and the kids woke up they went for some Federal Donuts to snack on while they waited for Daddy. They were so excited to see Daddy come by after watching so many other runners. All smiles and Gemma even said "mommy can we got to the next time daddy runs a race...pleeeeaase!"  Likely had more to do with the donuts. Daddy got some hugs and went to finish up while Mommy and the kids went to secure a table at Hawthornes for a post-race feast. They got to see the old hood, play at Palumbo, and see RUFUS. Chip, Mickey, and Sandy came with us for brunch and we got to catch up on how the whole neighborhood misses Alex and Gemma. 

We had a late checkout at Sofitel, so went back and had a family nap. Before we checked out, Alex and Gemma wanted to see where we got married. Almost 10 years later, they arrived at our happy hour. Then we went into the reception area and they just stood and looked around. "Why weren't we here again?"

Hit up Seger on the way out of town, a swing through our whole foods so Gemma could pee, and some more ice cream for the road. Awesome weekend.
