The day started with a 5K Race and/or 1 Mile Fun Run with a post-race celebration - hot dogs, snow cones and popcorn oh my. (The school lost money on my kids with the snow cones. I lost track of how many snow cones each of them had consumed and was almost scared to ask. Sometimes, a little ignorance is a good thing for everyone.)
The boys did the 1 Mile Fun Run with my dear friend Christine and her girls Ellie and Casey. Chris did the 5K Run. I stayed behind to take pretty pictures and be a school volunteer at the registration table. (and eat a snow cone.)
The boys loved the run. Aidan and Brennan both want to do the 5K next year. Chris ran to his glory (well, all the glory you can find in an elementary school parking lot anyway) and won his age group for the race. (I ate another snow cone in celebration of his big win. I'm quite a giver that way.)
The Octoberfest fun continued later that evening with an adult beer fest back at the parking lot. Much beer, some questionable german food, and a lovely german band! And a good time was had by all.
