Racing Day!

Today, Patrick and Finnegan participated in the St. Jude's Trike-a-Thon at their school.

The boys were so excited for "The Big Race" - we had been practicing riding our Big Boy Bikes for weeks gearing up to it.

We were all dressed up and ready to go this morning! (I know you can't see it, but Sully has little race cars on his outfit, and I have a checkered flag on my shirt and am wearing a stop light pendant on my neck - yes, we were decked out!)


Ms. Hanaa got all the kids ready to race, helmets and all!


Finn is revving his engine!


Patrick leads the group


Although they tried to avoid it, Ms. Hanaa did insist that Patrick and Finnegan stop at the stop sign.
Finn explained to her that it was slowing him down, but eventually gave in.


The whole crew!


After racing as a class, each student did their own lap around the course while their friends cheered!
Here goes Patrick...


And Finnegan is off...


Did I mention that the fabulous Lizzy and Ginny did the entire race in Halloween TuTu's?!
Now, that's impressive!


We are so proud of the kids - they had a great time and raised a lot of money for an excellent cause!
