Fun Run!

I love Saturdays especially during the Spring. Today we headed out early for my elementary school's Second Annual "Run with a Cop""and "Catch the Teach"  Fun Run!! 

The more serious runners were busy with the 5K, but my husband ran/walked with a bunch of little ones for their mile run/walk. I laughed when he commented: "Those kids talked the whole time! How do you stand it all day!" LOL!! Meanwhile, I was busy walking as fast as I could...unfortunately, all my students enthusiastically "caught up" with and passed me! They were all patiently waiting for me at the finish line with hugs and in anticipation of their promised Popsicle if they beat me!

Here's a pic of me with my cooperating teacher & our "quick" second graders that showed up for the event. (Sorry for the blurry pic...race days are like that!)  

More good news, you'll notice my cooperating teacher is just a few years older than my own children. Well, he and his wife are expecting their first baby in December!! I'm already thinking: receiving blankets, quilts, burp rags. I'm so happy for them. Thanks for stopping by! Tomorrow I'll be working on the most beautiful embroidered top I've been commissioned to quilt. I'll be sure to check in and share my progress..

With smiles!
