Kids Dash - Grants Pass, Oregon (6/8/13)

 This was the second annual Kids Dash that Nate sponsored for Grants Pass.  Bridget and Misty were just chatting before the event started.
 Adalei and Brielle posed quick for this picture with their cousin Gemma.
 Sarah was putting sunscreen on the Adalei and the other girls so they didn't get sunburned.
 Brielle also got some sunscreen from Spencer.
 Nate and his staff recited the poem, The Dash.  It was great and touching!
 This boy won $100 for having the winning design for the t-shirts.
 Elijah was great in his race and may have also eaten the most Popsicles that day!
 Brielle ran really fast and enjoyed a Popsicle after her race.
 Adalei was so speedy.  She was one of the ones in the lead for her race. 
 Adalei got a Popsicle after her race also.
 No matter where Nate went, Elijah wasn't far behind.  He sure loves his dad.
 Misty and Sarah (sisters) - what beautiful smiles!
 This was the competition to see who could beat Dr. Tanner.
 Dr. Tanner came in #2, just barely beat by one of the high school boys in his ward at church.
 This is the boy that beat Nate in the race.  He won $50 in gift certificates to the Yogurt Hut.
Isaiah did great.  I don't think he cried once.  
I was so happy to be there for the race day.  It was hot and I got sunburned but it was a great day!

 It was a hot, sunny day!

A fun graduation gift from grandma!  It was so fun to be there for this fun event.  After the graduation, they served lunch.

At the Beach (October 2013)

 I went with my friend Sheila to the beach to help with a cleanup project.  It was a beautiful day and we enjoyed walking at the ocean.  We went over four miles in the loose sand so it was quite the workout.
