Collin's First Race!!

Our family at Oldsmobile park after collin's race! I couldn't believe the number of kids who showed up to run in the mile run or the kids sprint around the outside track of the field. Collin showing off his medal. We are so proud of him!

Posing after finishing his race.
Collin on his way to the finish line! He was awesome! Most of the kids in his age group (4 yr olds) had a parent run with them- he ran by himself and was grinning the entire time. This will definitly be a yearly event for us.



Waiting in the stands while other age groups were running.

This is what happens when you leave your food around Caiden...

Collin relaxing with Daisy Caiden after he grabbed Collin's food off the table...what an awful mess
Yummy...Collin's food always tastes better!


Collin very upset that Caiden ate his food! Lesson learned; Eat when the family eats and don't leave it unattended with Caiden in the house!
