Who Would Have Thought

Much to our surprise, we had a nice rainstorm on Friday night. Rain does not usually start until April, so this was an unexpected, but welcome event. The best part, was that the rain cooled down the Saturday morning temperature and allowed us to take part in a walk/run event at school without dying from the Harmattan heat.

The Elementary PE teacher put together a walk/run event to raise money for an American foundation helping kids with AIDS in western Africa. We created a team with the Blazeks and set a goal to each finish 50 laps (12.5 miles) in the three hour event. We ALL reached our goal and did it in only 2 1/2 hours!
