Boosterthon Fun Run

Lauren's school participated a fun run today.  This was my first experience with this particular fund raiser for schools and they announced today that after expenses, they raised over $28,000 for their school.  Not bad!  Lauren's Kindergarten class was the top class for getting the most money pledged. 
I was able to leave work at 11:30 today to see Lauren run.  I'm very proud of her.  She ran 33 laps, which the Boosterthon people said those students who completed 35 laps ran/walked a total of 2 miles.  Way to go my little athlete!!  Mommy and Daddy are so proud of you!!!  Uncle Bill will be proud of you, too!
