  The kids' schools held a 5K/1 mile fun run this evening.  The girls took it very seriously.  They ran ahead of us and finished the mile in about twelve minutes.  Ryan and Jeff were next.  They ran for a good amount of time and then walked the rest.  Erik, Bailey (in a stroller), and I were at the tail end.  Before we even turned the first corner, about a minute into the race, Erik told me, "Whew, I thought I was going to throw up."  That didn't bode well for the rest of the race.  The only thing keeping him going was the promise of Gatorade at the end.  We finally made it in about 26 minutes.
    After the race they served hamburgers and had a bunch of bouncy houses for the kids.  The favorite was one where the kids push a big ball, trying to knock each other off the platforms.
That's Sydney pushing the ball and Shelbi in the striped socks.
