So toady we spent the day in Logan, UT.
My crazy sister-in-law decided to turn into an ironwoman.
We drove into town to watch her do this.......

Clayton's sister, Cherice, ran the "Top of Utah" Marathon today. We went to the finish line to cheer her on. She was so totally totally amazing!! She ran the WHOLE way and came in only 5 min after her goal time of 4hrs 15min. Also, as it turns out, she came in 11th in her category of over 200 women!!! Did you hear me people?!?! 11th!!!
Clayton's cousin, Ryan and his wife Bethany, also ran the race and we got to see them come into the finish line too!
I think everyone of these crazy people are totally amazing! To run that far seem totally impossible to me. I would be thrilled to run 1 mile without stopping.
Anyway, since we had driven 2 hours to get to Logan, we figured we might as well make a day of it. As I was researching what to do in Logan, I found a little Chilean restaurant. Clayton was, of course, game to try it. And it did not disapoint. After we filled our bellies full of empenadas and completos and mostaza, and good ole' American soda, we went to check out the Logan Temple.
After that was done, we found this really fun park that has a small zoo and playground. The zoo only asks for a small donation of $1 for entry (so this was totally up our ally). It was actually quite cute for being basically free.
When we were done with the zoo, the kids played at the playground for a while. At the end of the day we stopped at Gossner's cheese factory for some squeeky cheese and an ice cream cone. All in all, it was a totally fun day.
Most of all, I was so proud of Cherice.
