Mercedes Marathon 2016

Levi has had an opportunity to run an entire marathon through the course of the school year by running some segments at school. Then the weekend of the Mercedes Marathon, all the participating kids get to run the last mile. This was his second year to participate. We skipped kindergarten since I really didn't know much about it and the idea of taking a kindergartner and two baby girls downtown did not thrill me.

Here he is starting out on his last mile of his marathon.


At the end of the race, he got a medal. And a Powerade. A cold but good day!

From Pedro

One of Levi's best friends moved to Oregon before he started second grade. Levi was so sad. When he had a Flat Stanley project, he knew exactly to whom he wanted to send him - Pedro of course! Levi was so excited when he was returned from his adventures in Oregon. Levi got pictures of Stanley with Pedro. It was so sweet!

Father-Daughter Banquet 2016

Kara Jane all dressed up for her first Father-Daughter banquet. She was very excited.

Kara Jane even got a corsage from Daddy.


Liza, Levi, and I had some time for just the three of us. Unfortunately we found out just a little after this picture was taken that Liza was sick. 🤢
