JCC Rose Run 5 Mile Relay

During this years Rose Run events, Andy teamed up with his Dad and Uncle Eric for the 5 mile relay event. Andy ran the 3rd leg for 1.5 miles to bring in the Gold winning relay team at an amazing split time of 10:30. He averaged a 7 minute mile at the age of 8, cutting of nearly 3 minutes from his last years split time. Man does he ever love running!!

A few weeks earlier Andy ran a 5K with other area schools and placed second in his age group with an amazing time of 27:25! About a little under a 9 minute mile pace. I'm pretty sure we're going to have a runner on our hands as he gets older.

2009 - 2010 School Year

Wow, this past school year flew by so fast. Andy and Jessi have kept us all very busy! Andy enjoyed playing football, basketball, Boy Scouts, and running this year.

Jessi on the other hand decided it was time to get involved in extracurricular activities, so she joined ballet! Who ever thought that my little girl would be a ballerina?! She sure makes a beautiful one!!

This summer we have a lot of camping trips planned all over the state of Michigan: Traverse City, Warren Dunes, Muskegon, Mackinac Island, and the UP! It's nice that Paul and I are both on the teacher schedule now, even though we're both teaching summer school. We'll be taking long weekends and a couple weeks during August for the majority of our adventures.



Andy will be starting 3rd grade next year and Jessi will be in Preschool! They're both growing up so fast and are a lot of fun.
