Hunkey Hates My Hair

After having my hair cut asymmetrical for a few months, I decided to be normal again. It turned out shorter than I anticipated, but I'm fine with that, as I won't have to go back for 6 months or so. When I came home, Kadin looked at me and said, "Mom, why did you do that? It does not look like you." Everyone in my family had the same reaction, but were more tactful in thier expressions. Even people at church, who never once commented on it when it was lopsided, managed a fake compliment this time around. (You know how you can tell when people don't reallly mean what they are saying. ) It's all very interesting and amusing to me. I like it, and it has already grown out quite a bit anyway, so it's not even an issue anymore. I just thought I'd put this in, so I can remember Hunkey's funny dissapointment.

Tesoro Run

Wowie. It's been over a month since I wrote. Yikes! So many blog-worthy things have been happening that I haven't even had time to record our activities. Phooey. So here are a few entries to get caught up:

Early in June we participated in the Tesoro Fun Run. Peachy, Maddo and Hunkey ran the 1/2 mile and Brother did the 5K. Last year Kadin needed me to run beside hime because he was scared and not able to pace himself well. He asked if I'd run with him again this year. You can see that within the first few seconds of the race that he broke away from me, and did fine on his own. I never did catch up to him. He took 3rd in his age division, and Maddo got 2nd in hers. Jillian placed fourth in her division. Dallin bumped up to the 5 K (3 miles) this year and was competing against boys up to age 15. He has some training to do in order to be more prepared for next year's race! He is planning on doing cross country at the middle school this coming school year. Hopefully that will be fun for him, and will be a good way to get in good shape! There are other races on the calendar that we will enjoy participating in later in the summer!
