American Heritage Family Field Day

 Alyssa's school had a Family Field Day on Friday. It started off with a 5K, followed by a 1 mile fun run. Alyssa really wanted to do the 5K, but we had to veto that since Danny couldn't get off of work that early and I probably couldn't even walk a 5K right now. So we opted for the 1 Mile fun run instead. I pushed Ashley in the stroller because I didn't think she would be able to walk the whole mile. Here is Alyssa all lined up and ready to start. Ashley is just behind her in the green stroller.

Alyssa did really well on the 1 miler and even bragged about finishing 6 minutes before me. I tried to keep up with her and managed to stay within sight of her for the first half of the race, but then she took off and I never saw her again until we finished. My pregnant body wasn't too happy with me the night and the next day. I don't know how some women can run throughout their pregnancies because my body definitely doesn't like it.
After the race, there were all kinds of different activities for the kids. There was this bounce house...

 and a rock wall. Ashley was so determined to get to the top of this wall because there was a "Bucky Bell" at the top that she could ring. Unfortunately, this picture was taken right before she fell off of the wall and the line was way to long to wait in to try again. She was so close!

There was also a pulled pork picnic, some carnival-type games, a bake sale, and and obstacle course. We had a good laugh when Danny was timing the girls on the obstacle course and suddenly there was a line of kids behind them waiting to be timed too. He was a good sport about it and continued to time the kids until they had all disappeared again. It gave me a chance to sit down and relax a little which my body was very grateful for.
