Not only were we the last ones there, but do you notice Emry's attire? Now I know what they are supposed to wear, whoops.
The girls were cracking me up as they all started out in a full speed sprint. I guess they'll learn quick that that doesn't work. Slow and steady girls, slow and steady. This was a 2 mile race after all.
Coming in Emry placed 15th out of about 30 or so runners. The cool thing is that only the top 15 got medals and can travel to away meets. That was close.
Ethan thought it was cool to watch from the very top of the bleachers by himself.
We're so proud of our girl.
On the way home we saw a few hot air balloons over wine country (aka, down the street). Lila noticed it kept following us and said it was probably paparazzi.
Keeping in shape and having your children be wary of paparazzi. It's the Southern California way.
Hey!! At least Emry showed up which is more than some did!! She's an individual. Great that she got the medal (squeak squeak) Love the papparazzi line from Lila! Too funny!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all your comments on my blog were so sweet, thank you!!! And go Emry!! How fun...you should always have her wear red- you can easily pick her out in the crowd. :) Your family picture is too cute...and I love the paparazzi comment, classic!!

I was sitting on my butt growling when people just tossed my shirts into a pile when they didn't want them.

ps
WAY TO GO EMRY!
Way to stick it out Emry! It's going to be so much fun when you "go away" to run with your team. By the way I love your running style-you look like you were born to run. :) Shauna
ReplyDeleteI think the red helped her stand out and possible run faster. Better to be different right?
