Family Home Evening at the track

For Family Home Evening we went to the old track and had us some races. After church, Katie was talking about how she could kick her father's behind in running so we ended up here. The four of them lined up and I counted them off. They all ran their little hearts out. And everyone was so happy to finish, we didn't have one melt down over finishing position. I loved how we all cheered for each other and no matter when they crossed the finish line it was just important that they did.

still coming-
almost there-
headed back for race number 2.

After the sprinting races Trevor and I jogged around the track. Morgan started running with us, Trevor carried her part of the time then we all ran together. I pulled ahead just in time for the crowd to cheer my name and declare me the winner. (ha ha)
Trevor and Katie ran around the track one more time. Zach, Morgan and I started strong. Zach just couldn't get his legs to keep up so he cut across the field mid way. Morgan and I ran a bit then did a 180 so we could finish at about the same time as the others.
It was a fun family moment.
Trevor then ran some lines. We timed him twice then headed to the car.

At the car Trevor was trying his hardest to keeping everything down. He was breathing deep, spitting and walking around. I am so proud he did... funny how our minds can still run as if we were 18 but our bodies, well they age. They get slower, fatter and unconditioned.

We went home and talked about running from sin no matter what the cost. Family Home Evening can be SUPER FUN, everyone can be apart and you can even get pictures!

I love these moments.
