So, So Busy...

I was trying to address separate events with separate posts, but I'm quickly falling behind and am going to forget things if I push them back too far. So here's a recap of everything (that I can remember) from the last 2 weeks.

On Friday, May 29th, the RLCA Marching Band and After School Choir, which includes Abigail and Amanda, sang the national anthem at Frawley Stadium as the opening to the evening Blue Rocks game. Note the umbrellas in the stands behind the kids: Yes, it rained. Buckets, in fact. But the kids soldiered on and did a great job. The rains eventually ended and the evening improved greatly.

As for the game, the Rocks were playing the Myrtle Beach Pelicans and held their own for 13 innings before losing on an error.

Then, just this past Saturday, June 6th (Happy Birthday, Uncle Jason) Mommy took part in her second ever 5K run (the first being in college...so its been a while). The event was the GCA Runaway 5K Run/Walk which supported the initiation of GCA's athletic program next year.

The result? Mommy completed the run in 29 min 38 sec and came in 40th out of 104 participants. And she ran the whole thing, never breaking stride once. Congratulations, Mommy!

She's so excited that she plans on signing up for another run in August.

That evening, seeking more abuse, we packed up the horde and headed into town for Newark Night. Honestly, I wish I had a picture: Main St was a sea of people from end to end. It was pretty crazy.

On our return trip from trekking the length of Main St, we bumped into The Juggling Hoffmans. And it wasn't long before one of the kids was roped into the action. Check it out below.
