Forth of July -- Sharon Hill -- Fun Run

The Sharon Hill Fourth of July Fun run has been a family tradition of ours for several years. We have all participated as a family in one form or another. Tom did the fun run with friends when we were dating, then Anna was in the Baby parade and Tom ran with her in the jogger...then ran with zach when he came along...I ran and nearly died...then I ran and finished...still nearly dying...and Zach has been running for the past few years...

Zach does about a 9 minute mile which is why I couldn't get a good picture.

 

Please note he was the youngest competitor and has been since he was born...

They pointed out that zach has been participating in this race consecutively since he was an infant and his father ran the race with him in a stroller.

 

Storm brought down the tree...missing the house!

Thank goodness the tree that came down missed the house...

but Zach was able to make the best of it. He was a great help to dad sawing it up.

Zach's birthday present...

Zachary is quite the athlete...and it is no surprise that he is also a pretty good golfer for a kid...

Needless to say he was surprised when my parents got him a set of clubs for his birthday.
um...FORE!

Anna gets Glasses..

Well my poor little girl can't see the board right so now she has glasses. She has chosen quite the fashionable frames..don't you think...

The perfect clock for the space...

I have searched long an hard for the perfect clock to fill this space. It is located on a wall that is visible from the living room and the kitchen. A short time after hanging this huge clock on the wall, you can imagine my embarrasment when I was sitting in the living room and asked Tom what time it was...his reply, "Seriously, you can't see what time it says?"

Anna gets a Pillar Award for Respect...

Anna was honored at School for being a respectful member of her classes.

This award is given to student nominated by their teachers.
