Ragnar Relay

Hi Family!

We had an awesome October. =) The month was highlighted by two main events. The first was that my grandparents on my mom's side returned from their mission in Ecuador and we got to visit with them (and all the family that came to welcome them home) for a weekend. The second is that we successfully ran our first Ragnar Relay! I say first, because we enjoyed the experience SO much that we will be doing another one in the near future. =) The team photo is below:For a really good look at what our experience was like, please see the awesome short video created by one of our team members documenting our experience (to awesome music ;-):

Basically, there were two vans, each with six people, and while one van ran the other attempted to rest up and eat. Each person ran three legs. Jason ran a total of 17.4 miles, and I ran a total of 13.1 miles.

Aside from our two big events, Halloween was also a lot of fun. I was able to borrow a costume from a coworker and dress up as Snow White (wig and all) and Jason borrowed a red cape and brown hat and was my Prince Charming. His costume was pretty generic, though, and combined with the missing tooth Jason acquired via an elbow in the face playing basketball many of the trick-or-treaters thought he was a pirate. =P He could also have been a matador...

Well, that's it for October. We love you all and wish you a Happy November! =)

Brittany and Jason
