FIRECRACKER 4k
On the 4th of July I participated in my town's first annual Firecracker 4K Run/Walk. I did it with my next door neighbor, Aileen. It was tons of fun! Running outside was definitely harder than running in the gym!! I ran at a 10:18 mile/min pace. It sure was fun though - except for getting my butt kicked by the lady pushing FOUR kids in a three-child stroller (one older-child was standing on the back). I plan to do more races and work up to doing a big one as well as doing better in this one next year!!

Isaac and Briana ran in the kids' 40 yard dash and got cool ribbons as their prize. Isaac is a super fast runner. Briana was obsessed with the Chick-fil-A cow. (Chick-fil-A sponsors just about everything out here). Briana kept hugging his legs and giving him hi-fives. She cried when it was time to leave him and go home.

We had a nice steak dinner with Aileen from next door, (her hubby was fishing in Canada), and uncle Daniel who surprised us and came up for dinner and fireworks. We had a blast lighting them off in the street. I think we were just about the only ones in our neighborhood that lit fireworks off.
