This year {to Mommy's great delight!} Alli decided to run cross country for her school.
I could not be more excited!!!
My dream is that all three of the little fish will LOVE running as much as I do
{or did before the three knee surgeries!}
Thankfully, it is off to a great start as our Pink Fish loves to run and has really enjoyed practicing with her team at school twice a week since school started.
The whole family was super excited to watch her first meet this afternoon.
It was held at Bellarmine Prep and there were TONS of schools and kiddos participating.
So cool to see all the children excited to run!
We LOVED her uniform shirt, which says "Lord, watch over me today as I run".
Thanks to the bright yellow {and her bright pink shorts!} we had no trouble spotting her :-)
Although there are lots of kiddos on her team, they broke it down by gender and grade.
These four friends did such a great job running and cheering on one another.
Alli did such a great job running 1/2 a mile and finished strong ~ her smile was priceless!!!
She was so excited to get her ribbon and snack at the finish line :-)
Of course, she was happy to pose for pictures with her cheering section . . .
Way to go Alli, we are so proud of you :-)
We are looking forward to many, many more years of XC meets!
