We had a great weekend! Brandon and the kids made Mother's Day very special - I was completely spoiled! MariCagle said she had a fun Mother's Day too. :)
The kids also got to participate in another kid's race. This one was called the HERO Run. We fibbed a little putting Nate in the big kid race for K-8th grades since he wasn't satisfied with just the sprint last race. They both ran a 2K route with MariCagle finishing a couple minutes ahead of Nate. (We'll chalk it up to shorter legs.) Despite efforts to point out the importance of doing your best and having fun, their competitive natures still played important motivating roles. MariCagle ran most of the way with her eye on passing the people in front of her. Nate walked a little more but became motivated to run as soon as he noticed someone coming up from behind him. After the race, we took the kids to a fountain on campus to play in. They had a blast cooling off as you can see.
Hope all of you had a great weekend too! Enjoy the pictures!
Check out those pink faces! They were ready for some Gatorade and a cooling off surprise...
