Pineapple Classic 2011!!!

I apologize in advance for the amount of pictures I am about to post! Our photographer-Brett De Yager followed us throughout the entire race and documented our awesome team and about every step of the way :)!! I did cut it down to 41 pictures out of the 200 :) Thanks Brett, so glad we have these to remember how much fun we had!!!  
This year, Natasha, Joy, Courtney, and I decided to take part in the Pineapple Classic 5K race, which was a fundraiser for Leukemia!  This was the first time any of had run this race and we had a blast!! It was cold, wet, and muddy but that didn't stop us from having a lot of fun-and yes, we did get dirty :)!
Here is our team: DutchPlusOne (all of us are Dutch but Courtney :), so we thought it was a fun name )!!
 We had my family come out as our spectators :) Nolan was pretty tired!
 Sisters :)
 Grandpa and Cayden getting ready to watch the race!
 Daddy and Nolan :)
 And so begin the obstacle courses





 Cayden actually ran most of the race with Uncle Brett too :) Someday he will be in the race!

 Apparently I think we are #1-not the truth :)


 Kaylee a little confused but oh so cute!!!
 Cayden trying on the fireman's hat with Grandpa!
