Scott Earns Big Bucks For His School

On Friday, September 19th, Scott's school held a Jog-A-Thon to earn money for field trips and computer lab stuff, etc. Each kid had people pledge money and then they ran for 20 minutes. The Kindergarteners and 1st graders had smaller laps than the other kids. Scott was rarin' to go and did great. He ran 17 laps and earned $81 for his school. Way to go, Scott!
Incidentally, living here in California has been a multiculturally eye opening experience for the kids. Coming from Kanab, Utah they hadn't met too many kids from other cultures. Here, our kids seem to be a minority, as you can see from the pictures. It's been great; we've had lots of geography lessons and discussions about other cultures. Pretty cool. Scott's best friends at school are twins Rishagish and Viganish, and Javier.

Noah and Joshua cheer Scott on from their perch on the playground. Go Scott!

What kid doesn't like a post-run popsicle? Good job Scott!
