REALLY Busy Day!
Happy 20th Birthday Sarah! It’s hard to believe that we have a 20-year-old! Yikes! She’ll hit number 21 as she’s out on her mission, but will be home shortly thereafter! Time is really flying!
This morning, we all got up early and went to a benefit 5k for a little girl named Presley who has cancer and is fighting it. The turnout was really great! Brittany and Kirstyn helped with the logistics, and Angela, Zach, Ben and I ran the 5K! Yes, I actually ran the race! 🙂 Angela and Zach stayed together and I ran with Ben. He actually did really well. He was totally worn out by the end, however. 🙂 It was really cute to watch him.
After the race, we went back home, got showered and dressed and then went with Mom and Dad over to the Marching Band Competition Brittany and Kirstyn had all day. It was again at Sports Authority Field in Parker. They did really well! We didn’t get any pictures because Angela and I were down on the field helping with the pit. For the preliminaries, the band placed #2 overall in their division and got to go to the finals. While waiting for the finals, Angela and I, Grandma and Grandpa, and the boys went out to dinner and to thaw out. It was brisk!
The band performed well in the finals but with the harder competition and judging, they didn’t finish in the top 3, but that’s OK. They sounded GREAT and they got to go to finals which was awesome!
We’re VERY tired now after a long day so we’re going to bed! My legs are killing me from the run! 🙂
