St. Augusta Days Never Disappoints!


What a weekend! We started off Saturday morning with the 1K and 5K Gussie Gallop!
The big kids finished hard and I ran faster than my goal which was frosting on the cake!
Looking forward to running more races this summer!


On your marks, get set...GO!
Andray took off with his buddy Carson and Roz asked me to run with her in the 1K.
I embraced that invitation. Was fun motivating her and holding her hand while running on the route!
Neither Andray or Roz had to walk in the race which was the goal!

The girls had fun watching the 5K finishers.

Then it was time to celebrate and relax in the water!

CC loves the water, especially on a HOT day!


The boys...



Low and behold, our neighbor dropped off a 3rd place medal for me!
CC was happy to wear the medal around.
Very surprised and even more motivating to continue to improve!

Baseball in the front yard with the kiddos...nothing better!
Always a great time down at the church grounds listening to Diamond Back!
Was a great night!

SUNDAY AFTERNOON

Sunday of Gussie Days never disappoints either!
Outdoor mass was awesome with the polka music and the church festival was a blast for the kiddos!


Got to enjoy some live music while eating lunch...


Enjoyed a family ride on the "trolley" through town...

Was fortunate to work the face painting and glitter tattoo booth for a couple hours...the big kids were an awesome help!
The woman doing all the face painting was so talented!
Glad I didn't have to try face painting and happily took over the tattoo responsibilities :)
Roslyn's face painting was stunning!




The tractor pull competition never disappoints either!


Roz was pumped to get her Dr. Pepper!

CC had just woken up from her nap and was a little on the "crabby" side ;)

Andray was glad he had the "Duke Blue" tractor.
Then Papa Steve nor Papa Larry could be mad :)


Then it was on to the BINGO tent!

Andray was pumped they had green cards to play with.

Didn't leave the church grounds until nearly 6 pm...

Another amazing Gussie Days in the books!
Already looking forward to next year!
