Leavenworth 11'

A tradition has started and it is one I don't plan on missing.  It involves beer, friends, family and little run.  I am talking about the Leavenworth Oktoberfest Marathon.   What a better way to spend the weekend...doing the marathon as a relay around the beautiful Cascades and then ending the night drinking beer and dancing the polka with hundreds of others!
Our team came in 4th place this year.  We all did AWESOME with great times!
This year we did a little Klamping at the KOA.  Instead of tents, we went for a lodge.  Camping with kids doesn't sound awesome to me in October.   With the lodge, it also gave us the room to have Derek and Kaitlin join, as well as our last minute guests, my parents (we had an extra bunk bed because Amelia had to stay home due to her being sick) who stayed with Liam so us "kids" could go out and celebrate the season.
My dad has always claimed viking ancestry.  The hat was a must and made us very popular around Leavenworth.  We got stopped a couple times with people wanting to get pictures taking with the little viking.

Before dusk, babies are welcome.  After dusk, babies are discouraged.
