The Run

 Our granddaughter Dara ran her first cross country competition of the school year on Tuesday, against another school. She won the entire race! Of course I have to brag.


Here she is with one of her prizes.


Her name was even in the paper today!



* Photos were taken by Dara's Mom Melissa, except for the newspaper one.
