For the 4th of July, we were able to head to Cranford and take part in the annual race which happens on the morning of the 4th. Last year, I ran the 4 mile race for the first (and maybe last) time. This year, Evan, Brian and I ran the one-mile fun run together . . . or I should say, we intended to run it together. Evan went out to a fast start and I kept warning him to slow down and take his time, that we had a long way to go. Eventually, I let Brian and him go ahead of me, figuring I'd catch up to them when he ended up slowing down. Well, sure enough, he never did slow down and I never did catch up! Matthew ran it too and beat all of us. Here the cousins are before the race:
Very proud, with their ribbons
And here is Eric in his red, white and blue for the 4th:
Since my parents are considering selling their house in the next year, that may have been our last 4th of July on Springfield Ave :(
