July 4th

I told you there was a lot going on.... so today's update is the 4th of July. We got up really early and went to get the Kaysville Rotary 5K/10K set up. They were really excited because they had more preregistered than ever in their history. We added to their numbers with 3 Generations of Petersen participating. Ashley did the 5K run and Kim, Iris, and I did the walk.

It was a great race, the weather was perfect and we all survived. In fact I came in 7th in my age group, Kim came in 4th and Iris came in 1st!!!!! (haven't heard what Ash did.... she left before we finished - geezzzze speedy!!!!!) We were so proud of here... here she is with her good looking Rotarian wearing her gold medal.


After we went to Breakfast we headed out to the Great Salt Lake where we did some kayaking. We left the marina and went toward egg island. I think if Brent had someone a little more adventurous (who hadn't just finished a 5K) he would have made it all the way to the island.

After, we took a well deserved NAP and then Kim and I worked on her family tree quilt (which I must say is darling) , to Val and Diane's for a 4th bar-b-que, then to Kaysville for fireworks. It was all in all a lovely day.
