Sports

So our kids have been very busy with sports as usual. This was the other night at a home football game we got to go to. This is the only picture that turned out not blurry. Its not too great, but at least I can see my cute girls in it! They are really enjoying cheer this year, and are super cute!! Britton decided to join the cross country team with Jalan this year for the jr high. Here he is before a meet last week. Shorts are a little big!
Jalan has really been usure this year. He wasnt sure if he wanted to run, but we urged him to do it, to stay busy and involved. So he did, but has had quite the struggle, as his little brother has been beating him in the races. As hard as it is for Jalan, I am proud that he hasnt quit-which is what I expected him to do!- and has continued to try harder and work harder. He has been doing very good this year, and improving over his placements from last year.

There were 2 races at the same place last week...so these might be mixed up some of each...but you get the picture. Here is Britton coming up a hill. He is a fast little fella! We didnt expect him to be a fast runner, but he is! Coming into the finish line! Go Britton go!

Come on Jalan, you can catch them!

They both did good on this race, and I think Britton ended up 11th and Jalan 17th.

Here they are just starting out another race. It is 1.2 miles long! Britton pretty close up front..not sure where Jalan is in this pic. Rounding the first lap...here goes Britton holding strong.

And here comes Jalan hurting a bit...but still doing great!
They both did great here too. Not sure what places they took here, but good. We were very proud of them. There were over 100 boys running! Great job boys!
