Womens Fitness Celebration

Aubry and I participated in the St. Luke's Womens Fitness Celebration this weekend and we met up with Mammo and Aunt Amy before and after the race. We arrived at the starting point an hour before the race started and enjoyed watching everyone around us dance to the music and get excited for the race to start. We have been in the race every year accept one since we moved to the Boise area so we've done it 8 years and this was the second time we weren't pushing a stroller. It was the first time Aubry and I wanted to run the whole thing (5k, 3.1miles), and we did it and it was so fun. This has been a fun tradition for us and we look forward to doing it every year. This year has probably been the best because the weather was perfect, last year it rained the whole race and for most of the races in the past it has usually been cold. We were very excited to reach our goal of running the whole thing.
Waiting for the race to start!

Enjoying a dream bar after the race.
On the bus headed back to the mall. We decided to go to McDonalds in the mall and get a fruit and yogurt parfait since they didn't serve them after the race like as they have done in the past.
After all it's a tradition to have fruit and yogurt after the race. It was a fun morning, thanks Mommo and Aunt Amy for sharing it with us!

First Day of School

Now that school has been going for 3 weeks, I'm finally getting around to posting the first couple days of school. Better late than never right? All the children are enjoying school and are happy with their teachers. Anna especially loves riding the bus. Luke was excited to find out his teacher is a Male. Aubry and Seth like having lockers and several classes. Aubry is also trying Cross Country for the first time.

These first three pictures were taken on the second day of school. We recieved a fun package from Houston, Texas after the children got home from school on the first day. Uncle Nate and Aunt Macy sent something for everyone so of course the children wanted to wear their new stuff. Aubry is wearing her new scarf, Anna her her shirt and hair bow, Seth and Luke their new football shirts. Thanks again Nate and Macy!!!




These were taken the first day of school!
