Tegan & Finn have their 1st track meet

Today's track meet put on by the local running club included preschoolers (both Tegan & Finn) up through 6th graders today at Montpelier High School. They had a blast! Here they are in line for the long jump at the start of the day.
Tegan lands beautifully (Patrick realizes his photo-timing is off!)
Ok, Finn's got stiff competition, but he's not afraid.
Look at him fly!
Tegan is 3rd from the right rounding the 2nd corner in the 1/4 mile race.
She finished 3rd and was so tired, but so happy!
Finn ran an amazing 1/4 mile race, too. He ran consistently the whole way and was passing bigger boys left and right.
Rounding the last turn.
Post race fatigue...they were a little stunned to have just run so far, so fast!
Chillin'.
Great form in the softball throw Tegan!
Checking out the races, waiting for the 100 yard dash finals.
Tegan and Ella walking to the start of their 100.
Tegan looking strong and determined!
Finnegan looking great!
Ella, Tegan, Finn, and Pasqual show off their new t-shirts and medals....
Yeah, they're all number 1.
By the way, Braden slept soundly the entire time in the bjorn which Cristin wore...(reminder: more pictures of the spectators next time).

**Life has come full circle - our kids' first track meet was at the very same track where Cristin & I first met during our high school track practices 16 years ago!! Pretty cool.
