Of course we couldn't visit Grandma & Grandpa Finley without seeing Grandpa's firehouse. Andrew was so excited to be able to get inside a couple of the BIG trucks.

Quotes and things I'd like to remember...

"You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face…You must do the thing you think you cannot do.” ~Eleanor Roosevelt
"...In the end, people either have excuses or experiences; reasons or results; buts or brilliance. They either have what they wanted or they have a detailed list of all the rational reasons why not." ~Anonymous, from Matt Erbele's, It Takes Time to Get Good
"A house should be clean enough to be HEALTHY and dirty enough to be HAPPY."
"We runners are all a little nutty, but we're good people who just want to enjoy our healthy, primitive challenge. Others may not understand running, but we do, and we cherish it. That's our only message." ~John J. Kelley, Olympic marathoner
"I am not a victim of my husband's career. I have my assignment, just as he does, and I will do it to the best of my abilities. I will be a good steward of the resources, opportunities, family, friends and especially the children that God gave to me. I will choose to live each day with joy. (my personal pep talk for the day!)" ~Jill Peterson
"My running ambition is to keep doing it until I'm way past the point where I have any business running. Just to keep doing it throughout my whole life—to stay fit and feel good." ~Leroy Chiao, astronaut and runner
