Light Up the Laps

This year's jog-a-thon was called Light Up the Laps with a 4th of July type of theme which was a little odd since it's May, but it was perfect since the day's weather ended up beautiful and sunny, as it should be on the 4th of July in the northwest. 

Carson was in the first groups with the other first grade classes.  They started at 8:20 AM and ran for 20 minutes.  He jogged most of the time, walking a little, and ended up doing 10 laps!  I was so proud of him.

Pizza Party x 2 today!

 

Happy Birthday, Merrick!

Carson & Garrett LOVE Chuck E. Cheese.

The big kids.

 Chuck E. Cheese is where a kid can be a kid!  And boy, do our kids LOVE it there!  Brian and Travis (Dad of the birthday boy) got in on some of the fun while shooting some hoops.  We helped our good buddy Merrick celebrate his 5th birthday with Chuck E., arriving rather late from our Full House party at OOTW.  We attempted to bribe the twins, trying to get them to just eat one bite of pizza, served at both parties, but it was a no go with the exception of a nibble of crust by Ben.  One day they will love the melted cheese with red sauce on a gooey thin piece of dough.  One day soon, I hope.
