Our good friend has been involved in an organization that is raising money to build an accessible playground in town…which brought us to this year’s 5-mile Human Race — a bunch of charities with runners and walkers enjoying the beautiful views off West Cliff. It was a really inspirational event!
We registered the whole family, but then I realized that the girls still had dance class (which, for some reason, I thought would be over by now!), so only Dylan and I went.
At first, we thought it would rain, so Dylan donned a plastic bag (a tip he learned from Ms. Butler!)! And, so here he is (just as the sprinkles were ending), posing with his long-time buddy, Finley.
Finley didn’t end up doing the event–instead, we found him in a tree at the end! We did see his sister, Cleo, out there, though, and we ended up walking with her for about a half mile or so…and we also saw whales! We are so lucky to live here….
Dylan was a trooper throughout the race. He really is so easy-going and fun to hang out with and talk to….He likes to walk, but when he runs, re really takes off (and, there were a couple of points where he was really eager to run)! Anyway, we had a great time!
Later in the day, I took the big kids, K. and T. to Penny Ice Creamery and the local comic book store for Free Comic Book Day. Look at our haul!
Ok, so I’m not actually sure how age-appropriate some of these are, but Chloe liked the DC Super Hero Girls comic and Dylan and T. picked out Geronimo Stilton comics that they both really liked. Still making our way through the stack…!
