An AwEsOmE opportunity...!

Chance got invited to be a ball/water/towel boy for the K-State Basketball game...and spend the "whole day" with Coach Martin, his sons and the team! He was very nervous before I dropped him off at Coach Martin's house...but when we were watching him at the game...he barely said hello! After the game he couldn't stop talking about the awesome day he had!!!! Thank you Coach Martin and Anya for such an amazing opportunity...Now Chance wants to play Basketball and Football for K-State when he grows up...kids dreams are so sweet!

2010 Body First School Fitness Challenge

Today the kids ran in this fun event...all the kids in Manhattan from 8th grade and under got to represent their school in this race. The kids were separated by grades... Emma and Chance happened to be in the same age group (Kindergarten-2nd Grade)...that age group could either run a 1/4 mile or a 1/2 mile. I told Chance that he had to run the 1/2 mile since Emma was doing the 1/4 mile. Chance was very excited but didn't realize how far that was (for someone that the only running he has done is playing sports like soccer and football) They did a great job...Emma ran and made it to the end...(barely)

Ready...set...

go!

Chance took off running...but didn't realize how much further he had to run...he was fading at the end of the race but made 5th place on his group...so proud of my big dude!

almost at the end of the race...

Proud Chance (after few snacks and a cup of gatorade!)

Emma and her running buddy Chloe :)
