Kids Fun Run!!

Our girlies have wanted to enter a kids race for a while now and I was so excited to find one at Thanksgiving Point in Lehi! It is so cool to watch them compete and enjoy something that is so near and dear to my heart!

So we pull into the parking lot and were a couple minutes late and as we are pulling in their kids run is starting and I'm watching all the kids (from inside my car) take off and my heart sank. Seriously, they had been waiting for this at least a couple months now.....and originally the plan was Ry would run along side them and Layna and I would be the cheerleaders but Ry was driving when we pulled in and he looked at me and said "Mom I'll park the car you go run with the girls hurry!!!!!" So out the 3 of us jumped and we ran all the way from the parking lot to the starting line and so began our race, luckily it was chip-timed, so we would know their actual times at the end. (I know they're just kids; what's the big deal right....but it's fun to know how they did) I did feel like I was torturing them just a little because no sooner did we get thru the start maybe a minute into it and Lys wanted to walk but I pushed her to keep going and held Booboo's hand as we ran the 1 mile course thru the gardens and farm country. Such a fun race!!

Here's sissy lyssy kickin on the turbo speed at the end for a great finish!!


Here's sweet Bella boo and prego mama hand in hand!!!!
