Big Day

We've had a pretty big Saturday around here. Uncle Bryce and Auntie Jess came over for a visit and were happy to be my support crew for a local 10k, taking on babysitting duty even with sick snotty girls who really like to share!
It was a perfect early spring day in the NW, complete with a little snow, a little rain and of course some wind (ok, gusts!) for my first ever race and 10k. I was able to make my goal of under 11 min. miles and not walking while Cari smoked the course in sub 10 min. miles! It was tough, but we both agreed pretty cool!
Thanks to Bryce and Jess, Cassidy and the girls were able to be at the finish line to cheer us on. I will never forget Bryce's greeting; Don't look to close at your kids! I love it and am so thankful that Cassidy could be a part

A nice cool down while giving a bottle...yay, my whole life is a race!

That afternoon Cassidy was getting ready for her first Daddy Daughter dance and was so excited to get all dressed up for her "ball" and being a princess! We of course had to get her nails done, pink with a sparkle top coat...that's my girl!

Too excited to stand still for pictures!


At the dance with her friend Kierstan

Complete with a professional picture. We put it in a frame and Cassidy told Chad a few days later that when she looks at it it makes her smile.....awwwww
