This morning I ran my very first 5K!! I was sooooo excited!!!

Oakdale Running Club (Little Runners)

Yesterday Sara came home telling me that she wanted to do the Running Club. Well I have been running a lot (I am running my first 5K on Saturday) so I am pretty sure she came up with this from watching me. And to be honest I was really excited that she wanted to do this because I love the idea of running with my girls!

So today was the first day. The goal for them is to run 2 miles. My kids of course could not do the 2 miles. Ava was in the jogging stroller, Sara ran part of it and Julie chose to walk the 2 miles with her friend Sydney. It was a lot of fun though and I am looking forward to doing this every Wednesday!

Of course I brough my camera along and took pictures! :)


Julie didn't want to cooperate and get into any of my pictures! :(


Julie is trying to run away from my camera!


Me and my sweet friend Jennie, her daughter M and my girls, S and A. No J though, she ran away too fast! ;)

Pumpkin Patch with the Kindergarten Class!

What a fun day! Julie's class went to the Ag Museum for a pumpkin patch field trip! So much fun! Kindergarteners are such a fun age group - they are definitely entertaining! I loved talking to the different kids and seeing Julie interact with her friends - SO sweet!

Of course I took tons of pictures of my beautiful middle child!

The convict at the park amused me. A little odd to have them around kids.


picking the very best one!


So gorgeous!

Sara's Play

This morning at Oakdale our 2nd graders had quite a treat for us - an Under the Sea type play! And Sara played a clown fish named Zo. She was so cute, and she even had a speaking role. She did a GREAT job. Some pictures of my favorite clownfish!


Is she not the cutest clownfish you ever saw?
