Color Me Rad

Our family took part in the Color Me Rad race on May 5th.  We tried to explain to the girls what the race would be like.  We even showed them pictures online.   Still.....they didn't get it.  They were confused as to why we would wear white.  They would very soon understand.

When we registered, the national site said strollers welcome, so we figured Sydney would be able to do the race.  At registration we were told the course would NOT be accepting strollers.  So, Sydney got to ride on Mom and Dad's shoulders.  Total distance 5K.  It was a very hilly and rough path.  There is NO way a stroller would have made it.

 Us clean and white before the race started.

 Approaching the first color station.  The girls were getting excited.


 At registration we were given a few bags of color.  So, along the way we had some fun.

 A few shots of Sydney during the run.

 And a few of Hailey too!

Just a little on the face!

 Of course....a potty break about half way through the race.  

 Water break and catching a breath.

 Heading into another color station.  Purple this time!

 Enjoying the race.

 Our family at the finish line.  Great job girls.  Hailey walked the entire way!

 Hailey had so much fun collecting color bags.

 Time to be silly.

Time to head home.  So much fun...we'll be doing this again next year for sure!
