In high school Paul and I went and ran at Simplot Games every year. We even would go up and help for several years after we graduated. Paul even proposed to me the morning we were leaving to go to Simplot and help coach. So we love the Simplot Games and will pretty much find any excuse to go. So my niece was running up there so that was a good enough excuse so we went. My mom was nice enough to take three of the boys for the weekend as well. Man, only having one kids to take care of is so much easier than four. I wish when I only had one a realized just how easy I had it.
It was so much fun to go up there and see high school kids from all over the country there. It is amazing how fast some of them are. We even go to see a couple a National records broken. Paul even ran in a coaches race; he placed 2nd in his age group but was much slower than he is used to. Maybe the 30 extra pounds and the not workout everyday had something to do with it. We had a blast and Parker loved all the attention that he got that weekend. The other boys had fun playing with Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Dallas and of course getting spoiled rotten.
