Fun Run

This morning the family attended Nathan's school fundraising event --- the Boosterthon Fun Run!!!! For the past week, Nate has been calling friends and family (mainly family) and asking them to pledge a dollar amount for every lap he will run. Well, wouldn't you know it, he ran the maximum amount of laps they were allowed ----35 LAPS!!!!!!! So all you loved ones who made a pledge will be receiving a call from Nathan sometime soon :)
The event was super cute and fun. The group of young men who have been working with the school for the past week have really done a great job and definitely know how to get these kids pumped up.
Nathan's class being introduced on to the track.....I love how Nathan was waving to the crowd.

And they are OFF!!!!!!!!!

They ran......................

and ran.........................

Stopped to get a pep talk!!!! Nathan loved these guys--- he said they were hilarious.


and ran some more!!!!!!!

High fives from most everyone surrounding the track! The kids loved this!

And on the last lap, the victory lap, we got to walk it out with them.

Great Job Nathan!!!! We are so proud of you!
