Fun Run

From 2009-08-30

We participated in a Fun Run service project put on by a Young Women group from a ward in our stake. Lincoln was geared up to run 3 miles, but I was pushing Reagan and McKinley and had Jefferson on his hotwheels bike so we just did the 1 mile race. He and Truman ran the whole way and had a great time. Jefferson was very enthusiastic and was sure we were the winners (I think we were last - or close to it!). All the kids enjoyed the complementary treats after and I won a gift certificate for a free Great Harvest Bread loaf in the raffle.



They had games for the kids when the running was done and a bake sale as well. Exercise and treats - what a great combo!

First Grade!

Lincoln's first day of first grade was last Monday. He was thrilled to take lunch to school. He had picked out a new green lunch box that had its own green tupperware box in a bottom compartment. His first day he took broccoli with ranch, PB and honey, tortilla chips, an apple and one of Brian's famous cookies. When he came home he had eaten 1/3 of the cookie, a bite of the sandwich, half the chips, all the broccoli and his apple on the way home. Now we send fruit, maybe half a sandwich, and broccoli. That kid LOVES broccoli.

Drama x 10!

Okay, look. This video isn't funny. Its actually pretty dramatic on several levels and we hope we don't drive you away with it.

However, it is quite the memory. Welcome to just few fun minutes at our house.

Lincoln lived through the experience and is doing just fine now.

Some River Rafting Photos

Well that only took a few months...

Sorry for the long, long delay.

Here are one set of pictures from our summer adventure. There are several more we have and soon we will post the rest of them.
