Track






Dylan had his last track meet in middle school today. He didn't do as well as he has in the past but still did o.k. He ran the 1600 m run, 800 m run, 1600m relay, and did the triple jump. He won the mile run in the Cross County meet which was really fun to watch. He is looking forward to doing track in high school.

She will be going in to 4th grade next year. Brittney is a very quiet girl but can be loud at home at times, she loves to ride her bike and can be found playing with Chelsey most of the time.

Dylan had a track meet here on Thursday and they could choose what they wanted to do. Dylan did the triple jump, mile run, 100 M, and the 4 X 400 M relay. He placed 5th in the triple jump and place 1st in the mile run. He did a great job and we were very proud of him. He also turned 14 years old this year and his first question on his birthday was when can I get my learners permit. He wanted to go eat out and chose Chinese and then he wanted to go to the all school play. I can't believe it has been 14 years with him. He doesn't talk much (even at home) but he is a real great kid and we love him very much.

Brittney had her grade school spring concert on Tuesday and Wednesday we went to the Stuhr Mus*eum in Grand Island and looked at different forms of transportation. We started with horses and wagons and then went on to trains. We also visited the airport and saw how they check bags and security and also were able to see the fire trucks that they use if there is a fire at the airport. It was a fun day.
