Today- well this morning actually (since its still only 1115 AM) - was a BIG day for mama and Aunt Beth. They ran in their very first 5k race! Ally and I hung out at the park and entertained ourselves while they warmed up and ran. WAY to GO Beth finished in 35 minutes and Becky was complete in 38 minutes 49 seconds. Very impressive times and Becky actually ran the entire thing. Of course I documented it and am now blogging it. I know this is the Life of Ally so I hope you don't mind reading a post about the life of Ally's mama.

Registering for the race.
Check out their numbers! Becky was #1 and Beth was #2. They were pretty proud of themselves for their numbers!
Stretching before the race. Don't they look so elegant?
Waving good-bye to Ally and I before the run started.
