Fund Run 2011

Matthew had his first fund run at his school.  Basically it was a fund raiser where we ask people for money and then the kids run around this little "track" (basically cones in the grass).  The goal was to raise enough money so the principal would spend 24 hours on the roof!  (He is a good sport and a brave man!)  Well I am happy to report that we made the school goal of $35,000 and he will be up on the roof for 24 hours in December!  Brrr.  Of course my mind automatically thought "how is he going to go to the bathroom?" I guess I will have to wait to find out!  Matthew had so much fun at the carnival while he waited to run.  He got his face painted as spiderman by an 8th grader and played all sorts of games.  Then he ran 37 laps!  I was so proud of him:)

His good friend Matt S.  (yes another Matthew!)

In action:)

I know it has been sometime since I have blogged.  Chris and I went to Suncadia for the weekend for the WSDA annual meeting and I didn't take one darn picture!  If you have not been it is worth going to the website and looking at or booking a trip.  It is a kid friendly, beautiful, all season resort just west of Cle Elum and just east of Snoqualmie Pass.  I am sure I have passed the sign a ton on my travels to Seattle and this was the first time I had ever been!  We slipped away kid free for a couple of days (A BIG THANKS TO NICOLE D. FOR WATCHING THE KIDS!) and I relaxed, read a book, got pampered at the spa, took a walk on the paved trails, caught up with another dental wife and had a fabulous time.  The resort is priced very reasonably and they have tons of indoor/outdoor activities to do with the family.  I want to go back with the kids!  Anyway, that is what we have been up to lately!
