Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Reindeer Dash





Macalan has been asking to be in a race since he watched Kyle do the mud run this fall. We decided to let him give it a try at the YMCA's annual Reindeer Dash. He ran about 200 yards in the Santa Sprint with Kyle running right along side him holding his hand. It was so fun to see him running with that big smile on his face. He did tell Kyle that he was tired part way through, but he said he wants to practice for another race!

Afterwards we went inside to enjoy some healthy snacks and hot chocolate. Macalan even got a medal for participating, which he was so proud of. We also visited with Santa. When I say we visited him it was more like Sutton running up and saying "hi" then running away and Macalan staring at him and whispering to me what I should tell him. The boys loved all the craft projects they were able to make. They both made some cute reindeer antlers.

It was a fun day to spend together and I can't wait for us to do more races together as the boys get older.
