Turkey Trotters

On Saturday, our school had it's annual Turkey Trot. They have preschoolers run first and I told Benjamin just to run and follow Mr. Perotto (our PE teacher). I thought that I would just jog/walk right along side of him, but when he took off I never was able to catch him. He ran and never stopped until the finish and placed THIRD among all the preschoolers!!! He received a ribbon for running and is EXTREMELY proud of it!

Next, was the older kids and again I thought I would jog/walk with Spencer and Sarah (I knew I would never be able to keep up with Andrew.), but they started off and left me in the dust. I went back to the finish line and cheered for them all! Andrew came in FIRST. Yes, out of ALL of the kids, Andrew was FIRST!!!! Sarah and Spencer did a GREAT job running most of it! Wow! This was Spencer's first time receiving a ribbon and he was also very proud of himself!

    Cool! 3 years ago(when I was still in pretty good shape) I thought I would run the Capital Classic with Tyler. It took all of 30 seconds for him to leave me in the dust! Haha. They're faster than we think;)
