Ready to Run

Dillon's elementary school has a morning running club. During the week before class kids can run laps and earn stamps. Once a week they can run a timed mile and earn star stickers. When I started taking Dillon to school in the morning, we started running together. She's slow, but she still gets the job done.

Running with BFF Khalina.

Holding up her name card with stamps.

Her "foot" displaying her timed mile
(they accidentally shaved 2 minutes off her 14:07).

Here's a quick vid of Dillon's patented "run skip." Song is "Ready to Run" by the Dixie Chicks.

Shipwreck'd

We've been able to go to a few beach-side bonfires on Coronado recently. The kids love the sand and it's great to get cozy by a great big fire when the sun goes down. The last time we went we saw a boat had crashed ashore. Sadly, no treasure chest.

Burn baby burn.

Coronado sand is beautifully reflective.

Dillon and Zach explore the shipwreck.

Anchors aweigh!

Hiking Buddies

Guaranteed if we're not hiking alone we're hiking with Stephanie and Layla! This time we tried out Cowles--always risky because there are no bathrooms up the mountain! Dillon, as you can see, mistook the hike for a fashion shoot by the looks of her poses...

Strike a pose.

Try not to fall off the mountain, okay?

I love free-range kids.

Oh, Dillon also got a haircut that day!

Adventures in Learning: The Fate of the Furious

These kids won't stop growing up!

Kissy face.

Chillin' with BFF Lulu.

Re-enacting a scene from "Run, Lola, Run" with Karim.

Giggles.

Splash!
And a quick snap from Dillon walking to school (from the parking lot across the street).

Have Fun Today.
