JUMP!

Tonight she jumped right off the big diving board (springboard).

~~~~~

A special thanks goes out to her friend Carrie, who is fearless and went first.

Alli really didn't think much of going after she saw Carrie do it.

I guarantee if Carrie wasn't there and I had tried to coax her into jumping it would NOT have happened.  She would have over thunk it and chickened out!!



The Girl is NO Wimp!

After work Alli and I went up to the high school to practice her 400s for her up and coming race series.

After a warm up lap (2:45) she posted a 2:41 and then a 2:32.

I think that's pretty good for a 5 year old. 

Best of all, she thinks running one lap around the track is no big deal!

Next we headed over to the pool.  The high temperature for the day was only 71 and by the time we checked in at Machers I am sure it had dipped down into the 60s.

BRRRR

She had the pool to herself!!

After swimming we went to White Castles for dinner. 

(I had a craving.)

I ordered two double cheeseburgers and fully expected that Alli would take one look at hers and say "no thanks" and I would end up eating both.

I was WRONG. 

She loved it and devoured it in no time. 

She commented that it had a pickle more than once.

You just never know!
