There is so better way to celebrate my heritage than at Germanfest. They've got a pretty good celebration here in Indianapolis. 
In addition to participating in the beer and pretzels, I also participated in the Leiderhosen Lauf 5k, where I came in second (for my age group). I had to come from behind to make it happen, but there is nothing more exciting than a home stretch run!
We celebrated later in the day with polka dancing, weiner dog races (how cute!) and the aforementioned beer. Ein Prosit!
