Our family participated in three runs this fall two of which are highlighted in this post. The first was the Allegiance Step to Step 5K and kids run in Jackson. The day started out a little rainy but then dried up just in time for some fun on a kids' climbing wall and for the races.
I did the 5k and set my best personal time...I won't say what that was just that I did better than I had hoped to do.
The
girlies participated in a kid's fun run. It inspired Alyson to enter a 5k race you will see shortly.

Kris ran with Ellary. She was so excited to participate.
The second run we ran in was the Junior Achievement Step Up for Education 5k and Halloween Fun Run. Alyson was the only official runner in this race but everyone participated in one way or another.
I ran it with Alyson, although she high tailed it the last 3/4 of a mile and whooped my tail!
Here she is just having crossed the finish line.
And this is Alyson's official run time. We have some high hopes for her if she continues to want to run. She's a good little runner!
Ellary and
Keegan both participated in the fun run. Here is Ellary in her costume. She wanted to be an
MSU cheerleader. I think this stems from her crush on
Sparty,
MSU's mascot. Right out of the blue while we're driving down the road or playing at home she'll say something like, "I miss
Sparty." It's really cute, but it makes me wonder why it is he has left such an impression on her.
And here is little
Keegan taking up the back of the race with Alyson beside him. He fell just before he crossed the finish line but got back up and finished the race without crying. Boy, he's getting big.
Besides the race, there were several competitions. Kris won the cackling like a witch competition and he received a $100 gift card to a casino southwest of here. We don't gamble but we hear the buffets are good. We'll see.
There were also a lot of kids' activities including painting fingernails and spray painting hair. See how
Kourtney's nails are pinkish-red? Well, Kris spray painted her hair the same color to match. Fun, huh?
Ellary and
Keegan got a lot of use out of their costumes this year and had a lot of fun wearing them too.
Remember how I said Ellary has a crush on
Sparty? I think she just really has a fascination with mascots in general. Here she is with I think it's the Red Robin mascot. While some kids are terrified of people in costumes, she's a brave, beaming little girl.
Ellary really liked the Buffalo Wild Wings Buffalo. She kept going near him and waving at him. Here she is holding his hand.
Remember
Kourtney's pink hair? Here it is with her daddy.
There was also
Zumba instruction at the race. The girls had a fun time getting into it.
And the chicken dance. I think this was Ellary's first time with a go at it. How could she resist doing anything the Red Robin was doing?
