Fun Run

Last Saturday morning, we participated in the annual Fun Run, which is an exercise competition between all of the elementary schools in our town.  The school that has the most participants wins a trophy (Elizabeth's school has won the trophy the last four years in a row) and all of the kids are encouraged to participate - rain or shine.....Of course, it was pouring on Saturday morning but Elizabeth demanded that we follow through on her commitment to go to the Fun Run.  Lucky for us, the rain stopped while we were there.  Elizabeth is apparently an overachiever in the excercise category - kindergarteners were only required to do one lap around the track, but we (all four of us) did FOUR!!  I am happy to report that, for the fifth year in a row (and thanks in part to Elizabeth's participation), her school brought home the trophy.  Elizabeth is very proud of that accomplishment!

Elizabeth was off and running with her friends Megan and Sarah.

Emily impressed us - four laps, most of that running!
