The Big Race!

The kids just participated today in a big school fundraiser.  Our school teamed up with a fundraising company to do this "big world recess" run.  The kids could either get sponsored per lap or a one time donation.  It was a really well done event and everyday for the last week the kids have been learning about a different value (like confidence) and they have also been receiving prizes based off how much they have raised!  Our family is awesome and were the big donors for our kids!  Thanks family!! :)
All the kids are really into competion and couldn't wait to try to "win."  It was not that type of race but it still didn't hurt their excitement! (p.s. we thought that Isaac had to wear his school shorts for the run...hence the belt...didn't really slow him down too much!)

Ava taking a quick picture pause.

See Isabella in the back?  That girl makes me laugh.  She took it all very seriously.  She has a future in running!!  She was focused and stayed the course the entire run!

Look at that focus!

Isaac is still smiles getting to the end of the run!

They marked the laps as the child went by.

Did I mention it was a HOT and muggy day!  Boy, summer is still in full force here.  Everyone was soooo hot and sweaty after the race.

Here are our champions!  We are proud of these three!  They all completed all the laps and had a great time doing it!  Isabella even asked if she could go running with me sometime soon! :)

Thank you for your support!!
