And so it begins...

We're having a tiny, heat wave here in Oregon. Thus, are days spent playing in the water and having pool parties are still going strong.  But the hot temps don't mix well with running, so we'll have to see how my cross country kids do competing in their first race with a forecast of 90+ degrees tomorrow.  We wrapped up two big events for cross country before school had even started: Our 60-minute running fundraiser and chaperoning the girls' sleep-over in the high school gym.  Benji brought the girls to the track for the fundraiser, and McKinley and Piper ran a bunch of laps with the team.  McKinley completed seven laps (almost two miles), and Piper finished four laps.  Each time they completed a lap they received a bracelet (aka a rubberband) and wore them with pride to bed that night.

Look at those guns!


Tessa watches her sisters play in the pool while sucking on their popsicle sticks.



Triple twinkles again! 

Sophie invited them over to her front yard for some bubbles.



Bruce stands by to hand out rubber bands to the runners.

Meanwhile, Tessa and Dadda lounge on the new turf field. 


Both McKinley and Piper wore their cheerleading outfits to support the blue and gold.




Look at McKinley's form…..amazing!
