Fun Run at Kingswood


Ian's school had a fundraising event today called the Fun Run. Each grade came out and ran laps on the "track" for 15 minutes. The 3 Kindergarten classes kicked it off at 11:40am. Each class was assigned a color and they were to wear their color today. Ian's class was RED. That was easy to dress him in red since he's a State fan! When they completed a lap, then they were given a rubber band. At the end of the 15 minutes, then we had to write down how many rubber bands they had since that determined the number of laps. I think Ian had eight!! He ran probably 6 1/2 laps and walked the rest. He and his class did a fantastic job! Eight NC State student athletes came to volunteer. How nice was that? When Ian's group was out there was a wrestler there. Baseball players showed up later...followed by women's track, another wrestler and football. They were so helpful and it was neat to watch them in a different setting than Case Academic Center! Ian is pretty shy asking for money (not from us, but others!!!), but if you ever want to donate to his school to help improve the Media Center...just let us know!
Gavin spent most of the time playing with Norma, our neighbor. I wasn't sure if Gavin could handle being outside for that long of a time while I was helping out. He loved his time with Norma though. They even went on a fieldtrip! Yup...over to her house for lunch. I had packed his lunchbox to take with him!!!
