Kiva's Big Day St. George Marathon "2010"


We had an awesome day all because of this girl! Kiva ran the St. George Marathon for the first time!

Paxton and Carson were so excited to watch their mom they passed out! These are their signs they would have held, had they have been awake!
Mandy, Austin, Cooper, Tara and I were by a mortuary awaiting her passing..... They had a sign that said "Mortuary Ahead.... Look Alive!!!!" It made a lot of runners smile!

The girls were so excited to see her they ran up the road and greeted her, then they ran with her a ways to give her encouragement!
Gum ma and Coop kept a vigilance at the corner of 300 East and 100 North, one mile away from the finish line.
Tara and Mandy were so proud of her as you can see on their faces!!! They love their sister!
We drove to the finish line just in time!
this is the final stretch. She hasn't seen us yet and is still focused.....
there we go.... we've broke her concentration....the other runner has passed her now.
She would have been 4027th but we made her be 4028th. Isn't family great!!!!
and look ..... she isn't even mad at us!
Newt was happy and proud of his beautiful wife! She didn't even look tired!
Here is the medal she received. It's engraved stone. We are so proud of her! She trained all year for this and achieved her goal. She certainly is an inspiration to me. I love you Kiva! Way to go!!!!! Love M♥M
