Garfield School Fun Run

Mallory's schoool has a 2-mile fun run twice each year.  Mallory really wanted to participate but we knew that walking the route would be very challenging.  We got permission from the school to let Mallory ride her Amtryke instead.  I was able to sneak away from work to see the start of the race.  The excitement of it all was contagious.  Mallory is towards the end of the video clip.  She got a little upset in the beginning, but then took off biking the route.

Visit to Hildebrand Farms.

This fall, we took a road trip up to Hildebrand Farms so that Mallory, Matthew, and Hannah could see what life was like on the dairy.  We had a lot of fun on the tour and the kids enjoyed making butter.  We always joke around that there is not a place within an hour radius of Abilene that Mallory is not recognized.  Sure enough, Hildebrand Farms was no different. One of the teachers at Mallory's school works part time at the dairy and eagerly greeted Mallory with a hug.
