Fun Run & Cousin Birthday on a rainy weekend

Alice's school had a Fun Run fundraiser for school new technology & playground equipment. She came home the days before talking about good character traits and THEN ran 35 laps on race day. Each lap brought a new smile, great energy and good form. She ran over 2 miles! Her principal even dressed up as Captain America and joined the fun because they reached their goal.
 
 School closed Friday for impending rain/hurricane so we left a day early for cousin Kingston's first birthday party weekend. I expected us to be gone three days and it turned into about 5 because of the severe conditions along South Carolina's highways. Our neighbors kept us updated with texts and pictures to our great relief. The marsh didn't overtake our house and we are so thankful to be in a dry zone, unlike so many others in our city and state.
