September 26th 5K, Runaway, and Women's Session of Conference

Porter is AMAZING.  We want to the stake 5K and he kicked my butt...as well as his old record.  His previous record was between 31 and 32 minutes.  This time he was 27:16!  AWESOME.  He left me about a mile in and fiished a few seconds ahead of me.  We were both able to take second in our age groups.  He gonna be fast!

Then he got frustrated with me because I didn't take him to Lowe's for the craft and he ran away.  We found him in the gully like this and explained that just like he would be sad and scared if we left, we love him and we get scared and sad when he says he is going to run away.  We talked and laughed and then took him home to empty his backpack of clothes, shoes for when he gets bigger, and potatoes to eat.  Oh, and a towel to sleep with.:)

That evening Julia took a short break from her three days of babysitting (7 hours Thursday, 9 hours Friday, and 14 hours Saturday) to go to the General Women's session with me and Aunt Lisa.  It was a great meeting.
