Hershey Track Meet

I love track. It is so much fun to watch your children run, I cry almost every race. I guess it's because it's a individual sport and they try so hard. Taylor came home with 3 First's and 1 Second. He broke the record in the standing long jump and on the 100 meters. Ellie came home with 2 firsts and 1 second. They both qualify to go to the state meet in San Jose. It's always a humbling experience for the kids to go and compete at the state level because they realize there is much more competition bigger than little ole Gridley.

Taylor's 400 meter relay race. This was a great race. It was neck and neck. This boy is his big competition.
The kids with their medals! It was a good day for them and a wonderful day for me
