Our First Family Race

A couple weeks ago, many people from our church took part in a sports relief race event happening in the village where our church meets.  So our family joined in.  Ryan is a runner.  I am not.  But we all had fun and I wouldn't be surprised if we did this whole "race" thing again soon.     

Ryan pushed Bridgette (through some rough terrain!) for the 3-mile track while I jogged with the gingers on the 1-mile path.

Sweet friends waiting for our turn to start

I didn't know how the kids would do, but probably shouldn't have been surprised that they ran pretty much the entire mile.  

We all got a "medal" at the end, which was super fun for the kids!  But Gretchen, the Energizer Bunny, took home the "family trophy" for her determination and for having a positive attitude with happy spunk the entire time!  I was so proud of her.
