Potter Run!

 As soon as I heard about this race I knew I wanted to do it! Harry Potter + Running = Awesome! Riley was also really excited about the race. We have been running together for a while now and so she was really looking forward to doing another 5k.

The race was ok, but it was really cold! Riley had a hard time running because of how cold she was. She ran a lap with me, decided to join the rest of the family on the sidelines. It was fun seeing everyone dressed up, but hopefully next year the race organizer will pick a different location for the race. It was at Veteran's Memorial Park, but we basically just ran 5 laps around the park! It was still fun to get out and run! The kids were cold, but once the sun came up it wasn't too bad. They had a good time playing on the "castle playground" for a while, and then we took some pictures with Dumbledore, Harry Potter, and Snape.

 My cute cheering section! I loved having the whole family there!

Riley and me running our first lap...it was cold!

Mischief Managed! I hope that we will be able to run may more races together. I love my sweet girl!

Riley's First Day of School!

Today was Riley's first day of school. She was so excited to start! When she got home she had a big smile on her face and she said that she really liked her teachers and that 3rd grade was fun!  :)

Ryan had an appt to meet with his teacher today. Mom came over to watch Cooper and Kendall so I could take him up to the school. Ryan was pretty excited and saw some of his friends that were in his Kindergarten class. Ryan's teacher seemed really nice and so I hope he has a fun year! Tomorrow is his first official day of school.

Having Fun with Kitties and Bugs

The kids had fun playing in the front yard this morning. We found some ladybugs, a praying mantis, and had fun playing with Suki. I wanted to get some good pictures of Kendall, but she is so wild and crazy...she didn't want to sit still. I think I was able to get a few good shots...I need to sit down and figure out the setting on my camera.
