Throwback Thursday

The date: July 4th weekend, 1997
The place: Atlanta, GA
The mood: all good - good friends, good food, good times

A group of us from Second Baptist in Houston went to Atlanta for the 4th of July weekend and stayed at Kevin's parents house. They were about to move to Florida so this was the last big gathering there. Kevin and several others from our group ran in the Peachtree Road Race which is a 10K race through Atlanta. There are thousands of runners and a guy from Kenya usually wins. I've never seen so many runners in all my life! We also went tubing down the Chatahoochee River. They call it "Shoot the Hooch." Kevin and I were dating at the time and were not yet engaged, but I was in love! Just look at how cute he is - how could I NOT be in love? This was such a fun weekend.
KG and MR
Fletcher saw these picture and asked, "Dad, did you win the race?"

Oh The Peachtree Road Race is awesome. I ran it back in 2001 and it is exhilarating running with so many other people. Isn't it so much fun remembering the dating days?
