It's that time of year again! Time to head to Huntington Beach to cheer on Pete as he runs in his seventh annual marathon. This year is extra special for a few reasons. First of all we get to stop in Santa Barbara on the way down to see our friends Kristen and Dirk and to attend the premiere of Dirk's movie at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival (check out the trailer at http://www.whenthedragon.com/) Also, this year the marathon falls on Pete's birthday (what, doesn't everyone want to run 26.2 miles on their birthday?) The trip has changed over the years but we always look forward to spending time with our family in beautiful Southern California. Here are some highlights from years past.
The first marathon finish.

Nick with Grandma Kathy the second year.
The third year when Pete and his brother Paul decided to jump in the ocean after the race.
Our fourth year and Noah's first year.
Nick and cousin Owen in the fifth year when it poured down rain during the race.
And finally last year. Can't wait to see what this year brings!
