Red October Run

Saturday, I ended up running a 5K called the Red October Run. Wow, was it hard! I'd been training for it for a couple months now, but for some reason, it was seemed so much harder running the day of the race. I ended up coming in 7th out of the 19 in my age group. My time was 28:42. I was a little disappointed with my time, but I'm hoping next time I'll do much better.

My sister ran too. She came in second in her age group.

Here I am before the race. See how happy I look; it is because I don't know the torture that's coming:

Here's all the 5K runners at the starting line:

Here's me around the two mile mark. I think I just wanted it to be over at this point:

Here's Lisa with her medal for second place:

Apple Orchard

Last week, Elizabeth went on a field trip with her preschool class to the apple orchard. Here's a couple of pics from it:


They each got to pick their own apples:



And, of course, enjoy some yummy food:



I think the highlight of the trip was playing in the hay:
