We participated in the ZTA 5K Race today. Our babysitter Dominique's sorority was putting it on, and it was for a good cause, Breast Cancer Awareness. It turned out to be a beautiful and very windy day, perfect for the race - especially since it'd been raining for the last couple days.
Here we are waiting for the race to start. We got our numbers 76, 76, 77! For whatever reason, Peter was being anti-camera for this shot and Elaine is in the single stroller.
I was overly excited to get my "Think Pink" ribbon pin.
Luckily, Elaine slept through the entire race...all nice and cozy warm in her car seat.
I didn't get to catch Peter crossing the finish line because he'd ran off quicker than I could keep up, but he did get a lot of cheering to finish off the race, just like Natalie's reception to the finish line.
Here's their finish photo with the finish line of balloons behind them. It was sort of cute that each thought they won the race - as we told them, they did win...in their division.
Peter's favorite part was the race. Natalie's favorite part was 'the wind blow [her] hair away'.
It was a nice run and we had a great time doing the race as a family. We got a lot of props from other runners and organizers for bringing out the kids for the run. We felt happy that we did it...and now my legs are SORE!
As promised after the windy day out, we had hot chocolate back at home
...through a straw, nonetheless!
Whatever makes them happy!
