OK! OK! OK! OK!

We are ordering the medals on Friday. . .
no ands, ifs or buts about it!!

I guess since we have had such a
late easter and a late spring -

we will give you 2 more days to register
for the Cardston Kids Marathon!!

Only 2 days - that includes today which is Thursday!
Don’t forget that the school closes early on Friday (tomorrow)

but alas online registration is open LATE!
Open 24 hours actually - handy hey?!


Just a reminder
if you register online,
you can still pick up your pedometers
at the Elementary School next week!


This is the chance that you almost missed!
Hurry! Hurry!

The time has come
Today is the LAST DAY
to registration for the Cardston Kids Marathon
It is your last chance to get
you, your mom, dad,
brother, sister,
grandma, grandpa, cousin,
friend or even neighbor
registered. . . .

Remember, you have two choices. Go the Cardston Elementary School, or right here (online).

Get ‘er Done!

Would you like to win a cookbook? Once you are registered, you will have a chance to win this great cookbook! Here is a short video about “The Whole Family Cookbook” - I love it - - oh, just so you know, I loved it before I found out . . . . wait for it .... she is sending us a few copies of her cookbook for draw prizes!! YAHOO!!

Some of my favorite quotes from this video are:

“There’s no one size that fits all for parenting, every family is different,
but we all need to teach our children the skills they need
to grow up to be independent, confident and healthy adults.”

“Kids don’t need any practice eating cookies and cupcakes,
but they do need practice eating their growing food.”

Oh, don’t notice one of my earlier posts about loving cookies! Yikes! See - I need practice eating my growing food too! Ha Ha!


Enjoy the video - make sure you are registered for your chance to win!

By the way, I do believe that Spring is FINALLY here!!!


You can watch it here: http://vimeo.com/20048728

Let's jog your memory about the 2009 Cardston Kids Marathon . . .

YOUR CHILD'S FIRST FUN RUN

You know that it's not important to "win" in the traditional sense and that all that matters is a "finish" in a fun run. So why are you fretting and sweating on a cool day? Here are a few tips to help you relax during your child's first fun run.


Eat an early breakfast to make sure that food is digested before the fun run.

Get to the fun run early. Most events are by the clock. If the event says 9:00 a.m., that means the kids will run at 9 sharp.

When you arrive, look for your age group and find out where to gather.


Get ready. Make sure you have your t-shirt on.

If you didn't bring water, find some. Have your child sip a bit.


Make an after-event meeting plan. Some events have specific parent pick-up areas. Make sure that everyone knows the plan.

Time to line up. Keep your child in view. Smile. Wave. Then step back.

Blow bubbles!

Every now and then a little one may get the jitters at the start. If your very young one starts to cry, scoot into the crowd and give a little TLC. If the event starts and the crying continues, accompany your child.


When the starting gun goes off, yell, scream, cheer, and jump up and down. Keep your camera flashing.

Enjoy the finish with more photos and positive accolades.
