And what an exciting day it was! James ran his second 5K that morning:
 |
| Handsome boys after stretching before the race. |
 |
| In front of the huge crowd of runners. |
 |
| Getting close to the end, only two more turns! |
 |
| Crossing the finish line in just over 22 minutes! |
 |
| Second 5K complete, and very well done! |
Then we had our first date night in, well, I don't even know how long, at the 70th Annual Seabee Ball:
 |
| Family shot right before walking out the door. |
 |
| Blurry, but look at that little boy's sweet smile! |
I didn't even realize that the ball was on St. Patrick's Day when I bought my dress in New York. Even so, instead of wearing the same color as every other woman there, I think I was the only one in green. Sometimes ignoring the calendar has its benefits!
We had a really good time (and dinner was
amazing), and I was even treated to a couple of dances with my handsome husband. To top it all off, the boy was fantastic for his
babysitter partner-in-crime that evening - not a single fuss was made!
