State Track Meet

The Friday and Saturday of Memorial Day weekend was the Illinois Elementary School Association State Track Meet in Peoria, IL.  Sophie qualified for the 100 Meter, and the 4x1.  We were all excited to go support her and watch her run.

 Debbie had shirts made for the boys to show their support.

 While waiting to watch Sophie the boys found a great hill to slide down.  This kept them occupied for a good long while.

 And she's off...

 This was just prelims and she qualified to run in the finals the next day.  She ran against the best kids in the state and she did very well.

 On Saturday there was more waiting around.  It was PACKED, but we managed to find a spot where we could camp out.

 After waiting for a bit with us, we got to watch Sophie waiting for her turn in the 4x1 down by the field.

Sophie and her 4x1 teammates.  They all did an excellent job.
