We're number 1 and 2

So Cross country season has started! Proud to say that at Emma's first meet she snagged first place! She wanted it so bad last year and got it. On the down side she might have become a little to sure of herself this week and ended up with second. We are still very proud of her she is a bit bummed but there was also a bit of confusion yesterday that messed up a lot of the kids =-( The person starting the races was doing a horrible job and there was up to three or four groups running at the same time and crossing the finish line getting all mixed up. It mad it hard to get times on all of our schools kids. But there is always next week!
Nathan is also running and is doing really well. He has improved his time from last week and manage to jump over a jumble of kids who tripped at the start line (one even lost a shoe).

Awesome! Did she touch one of the girls at the start of the race and say, "Touched you last!" and take off?

Pass along my congratulations to Emma and Nathan! Sounds like they are doing a great job with their sports. I think Jake brings up a good point. Both Nathan and Emma have been quite diligent in their training, with their recurring games of "gotcha last". I feel I have had a small part in helping them train for their success. :)
