He Did It!!




Yesterday Kameron ran in another cross-country meet. He did awesome!! He qualified to be in the All-City Championship Meet where he will race against the top runners from 34 different elementary schools. Last year he just barely missed qualifying and was very disappointed. As you can imagine this year he is SO EXCITED!!

Triple A: Addie, Ailey and Abi

What is so neat is the supportive network Kameron had cheering him on. When he was done running he said "Mom, so many people were cheering for me!!" It is true. A lot of kids from our church and our stake were competing and it was so fun to cheer them all on...not to mention parents of Kameron's friends, parents of kids from his baseball team, and school mates and team mates. It really is such a neat opportunity for the kids to feel loved and supported. Our Primary kids did fantastic...as did Kameron's scout troop. I am sure there were some tired cub scouts last night after the meet.

Bryn the Berserker...she got a little crazy toward the end.

Today at school they announced the kids who qualified for the All-City Meet over the loud speaker. Ailey was thrilled to tell everyone..."That's my big brother!!" So sweet.

Reilly is also playing on her school's Girls Softball Team. Unfortunately all her home games are during Kameron's meets. She's been very gracious about giving Kameron his day in the sun and taking a backseat. The Lady Chargers won their game last night as well. Go Reilly!! It was fun to hear that several of the girls on Reilly's team also had siblings running in the meet and one of their moms who was at the meet was keeping them all posted via cell-phone on how their siblings were doing during the game. How cute is that?

Congratulations Kameron...You did it!!

I think it is so fun that they have Cross Country for Kameron's age group. What a great sport! I hope Seth will give it a try when he gets to high school (they don't even have it in the middle schools here).

Way to go!!
