Boosterthon 2012

Sam's school is a part of the Boosterthon for fund raising.  It was Nov. 1st- first thing in the morning.  I am not sure whose idea it was to have a fun run bright and early the day after Halloween, but it was an interesting day none the less.  The kids were tired from not only a late night of trick or treating, but also on the down side of a major post Halloween sugar rush.
Sam was up for the challenge though---  he was determined to run all the laps...

he needed a little water break along the way, but he kept going, never stopping even as he sipped his drink...

Daddy, Molly and I cheered him on every time he went through the giant tunnel

he was like the energizer bunny...

he kept going and going and going

time for a high five from daddy, Molly and me

and LOOK------  He did it...  all 35 laps

but did that stop him?!  NO---  he just kept on running.  He completed the 35 laps quickly, one of only a handful, who ran that quickly--- he still had like 14 minutes left to go--- so he continued on the whole time.  Here he is showing one of his buddies that he got all of his laps completed.

The Boosterthon was done, check out that sense of accomplishment on that precious face!!!!

Congrats Sam---  we are soo very very PROUD of you!!!  way to give it your BEST!
