Meet Haley...
In preparation for our Ragnar Relay coming up in June, Gary and I went and bought a reflective vest. That same night we dropped by my parent's house for a bit and my brother and his family were there...Haley is his daughter. Well, she saw the vest and HAD to wear it. I told her it was for running and that started a snowball of questions which included "Tara, where is your running watch?" "Tara, do you have that thing that counts your steps?" "Tara, what is this for?" while holding the head lamp to my face. After she put on the reflective vest, running watch, headlamp, and pedometer she was ready to race!
So we went out to the side walk and had a race around the cul-de-sac. There she is ready to hit START on the watch as soon as Uncle Gary gave the signal!
Here were the contestants. I'm sure glad I wasn't TOO far behind Haley because I didn't have any of that safety gear on and something bad could have happened!
On your mark...
Oh wait! One race was just not enough! She marched right in that house after the first run and made EVERYONE come outside for another race... "...except pregnant people. Mom, you don't have to race." she says to Shannon. To which Shannon THANKED her graciously.
It was fun! She's cute...we'll sure miss her when we move to New Mexico in TWO days! And yes, I carry my running stuff around with me pretty much everywhere...it's in my car right now! You never know when you might want to go for a run. (lame, eh?)

Haley said "That was way fun...we need to race again" We are going to miss you guys like crazy!!!!
Haha that's so funny about the race -- gotta love kids and their competitive side! And I love the "eh?" usage at the end of your post... I love that you still keep in touch with your Canadian side! Good luck on moving to New Mexico!!!
Wow...that's bright. I don't think anyone will run us over!!
