Field Day

If there's one school day Braden dreams about all year, it's field day. And this isn't a field day like I remember them, with water games and obstacle courses. Here in Scottsdale they don't mess around. The kids have to qualify in gym class to participate in relays, sprints, a high jump, long jump and a 600 yard race. The competitor atop the podium in each event goes to the district competition.

To the cheers of his sisters, Braden ran his way to a first in the relay, second in high jump, and third in the 600. Though I have already been informed that we need to buy a high jump mat and bars. We're in training for next year.

Way to go B!
