A few weeks ago I woke up and asked the kids if they wanted to go to the Big Blackfoot annual parade, or if they wanted to run in a race. They both shouted, "run in a race". So we hustled down to Pocatello where Jeff, Angela and Kiley were running the Pocatello Marathon. Kimm was also registered for the 5K. Luckily, I was able to still register the kids for the kids race.
Not happy about mom taking pictures!
I love this picture!
Dylan at the start of his race...
Kate staring down the competition...
And passing her....I was so proud!!! I couldn't believe how fast Dylan and Kate both were. Once they caught on to what was going on and what a running race is all about, they both sped up and flew past the competition. I love my little athletes!
Cuties after their races...I was totally crying I was so proud!
Gold Medals...Fun to do a race right after the Olympics!
Waiting for the big girls to finish their Marathon!
Here they come!
Yippee! So exciting!
Here are the big finishers! What a fun day!!!

Erin...how are you! The kids are getting so big! Kate is just absolutely adorable in all these pictures. WE miss you guys and hope you are all doing well! How are you feeling lately?
That's so awesome! How far did the kids run? I've been thinking of trying to get my 5 year old to run the 1 mile fun run for the 4th of July next year. Way to go, kiddos!
LOVE THIS!!! What a fun thing for the kids... :)
Hey Erin, Found you on Jaime's blog, thought I would say hi! I just ran my first Half Marathon in Provo Canyon in August. It was awesome and now am thinking of the Moab in Mar. Life is crazy. Your kids are darling. I have a Kate too, my only girl of 4 kids. You look as great as ever! Love, Melanie (Tenney) Whiting
