Today was a GREAT day!  The Step-a-thon was a huge success with many people coming to climb some stairs or just cheer on.  It took us about two and a half hours to do all 10,000!!  Dad and I did all 10,000.  Our friend Andrew joined us in doing all 10,000, as well as Alex, who did 11,000.  Even little James climbed a few stairs.  We started right at 9am and we ended around 11:30am.  After completing the climb, we all came back to our house for a delicious of chili and amazing potato soup made by my Mom and my sister Lydia.

Overall it was a really successful day.  With all the friends and family there the climb was not as hard as I imagined.  A huge thank you goes out to those who came!!  I couldn't have done it without your support!
