Run Like the Wind!

This weekend was full of summer fun in Jace and Lexa's town. Complete with music and food in the park, family visiting, swimming, and races.

To begin...the race. Mommy and Fabulous Aunt Kay once again kicked some butt in their 5k. On Sunday Mommy placed 2nd in her age division and 23rd overall out of 358 female runners. Fabulous Aunt Kay placed 3rd in her age division and 47th overall out of 358 females! Not too shabby!

Jace ran in the kid's race and if you ask him....he won. He participated in the 3-5 year old division and did an excellent job of running all the way to the finish. Mommy had been a little concerned he would start talking to his buddy and forget to run. Because of this, she told him to just put his head down and run. After seeing him demonstrating this, everyone was a little concerned with him obtaining a concussion so took back the part about putting his head down. In the end it all worked out and he was a happy camper with his finisher's medal!

The runners. Note the medals Mommy and Aunt Kay are sporting. Just another day....



At the finish line.



Showing Jace proper stretching technique.




Jacer gearing up before the race. Mommy thought he looked so cute with his little number on.



Jace and Gaige giving it all they got!



Proud finishers.



Eating some grub and listening to some tunes at the park.



Cousins. Don't you love Keegan's shirt? No idea where that came from.



He is such a stud.



Lexa and Keegan chillaxin'



Mommy almost forgot...there was a parade! A parade with a lot of cars. Just driving. As you can see Jace was thrilled.



Saturday night everyone went to the Fabulous Kay and Doug's hotel to swim and enjoy pizza and cake (for Uncle Doug's birthday).

Mommy's little fish. Lexa probably would actually prefer to jump in with nobody catching her.



Getting in with Fabulous Uncle Doug.



Practicing his skillzzzz.



The rest of the pictures are a little random but Mommy wanted to share. There is a new inflatable bounce house place that just opened near the mall. Mommy was ecstatic when she heard this and had to check it out right away. It was a hit!

And she's off!!



What else would you do in a bouncy house but wrestle?



Oh Missy and her cheesy smiles.



You just can't beat cheese like that so Mommy must now conclude this post.
