Derek's Track Meet

Today the 4th graders from all of the 8 Spanish Fork Elementary Schools competed in the Hershey Track Meet. I missed last year because I didn't know that parents could go so Derek started reminding me about a month ago so I was able to take the day off. It was so much fun!!! Derek did AWESOME, I was so proud of him. He is very tired tonight and I am sure he will sleep very well. Overall he took 2nd in the 50 Meter Race, 4th in the 100 Meter Race, 4th in the softball toss and 3rd in the 4 X 100 relay. It was fun to hear Rees Elementary cheering Derek on as he ran. When I went to tell Derek's teacher that I would be taking him home she made sure I didn't take him until he was done with the finals. She was so proud of Derek and said, "This is right up Derek's alley and he is doing great!!!" I was able to see a lot of people that I haven't seen in a long time as well.

What's this? An athlete in the Olsen/Wright family? Couldn't be! Your boys are so cute and I couldn't believe how much Angie's little boy looks like Derek.

Hi Emily,

I'm not sure how I got to your blog...I clicked a link from mine. Anyway. I can't believe you're a blogger. I never would have thought it. Your family is looking good. And I'm sure your boys get all their skills from you!!
