Theme...Run, Run, Run and Nixon Turns 10

Opening Day Seattle Mariners 2016

Thank goodness Chex mix can be made gluten free!! On a side note some awesome news, we determined Nixon is not lactose intolerant just gluten is the issue! So our options have now opened up and he can have cheese again!

Paige and Tim ran the Emerald Isle Half Marathon! I am so proud of them they beat their goal time by about 15 mins!  13.1 Miles,  Boom! :)

Before the race

Almost time 

And they are off!!

The boys and I had a couple hours to hang out so we found some cool trees to climb for a bit and then they had a dj and stuff going on to entertain those waiting for their runners.

To my surprise Paige beat her Dad!! She rounded the corner with the biggest smile on her face! It was awesome, makes me tear up thinking about it. She ran it in 2:28 

Then Tim rounded the corner. He looked great too!  All their hard work and training paid off and they both felt and looked good. Tim ran it in 2:29

Time to stretch out

Next up...Simon joined Track! So proud of how he has tried new things this year.

His first meet

They had him try the shot put 

He ran the 400 relay

This is my favorite picture. Almost looks like a picture from the 70's lol. 

He won the long hair battle and it does look good on him, I must admit.

He also runs the 200 yard dash 

Next up... Nixon turned 10!! I still can't believe all my kids are now in double digits.

See gluten free you can't beat me I still made a yummy birthday cake!

Nixon and his friend Brody had a blast bowling and videos games at Mac Daddy's.

Being silly

Game time

Their faces kept making me laugh

All the loot won from tickets on the games

Then, guess who was for the first time tall enough to drive the go carts!!

So excited!! First time driving

And they are off

We gave Nixon a Ukulele and he is really enjoying it. His music teacher at school has been teaching them.

Opening gifts from family on his actual birthday

He was very excited to get a circuits kit. He really wants to learn circuits and all that kind of stuff.

And we ended the day with ice cream because now he can have it! :)

And of course your funny Tucker pic. Yep he is asleep! Tucker we love you
