The Color Run

Harper chose The Color Run for her family birthday fun.  If The Color Run comes to your area please go.  I promise you won’t regret it.  Talk about some crazy cool fun…alone, with a friend or spouse, with your kiddos or all of the above…just do it.

Last year Sol wasn’t feeling it and Amon had just gotten out of the hospital so only Josh, Harper, Huddy and myself went.  This year since it was for Harper’s birthday everyone went.  I broke the news to Sol gently…he just wasn’t game for people throwing powdered paint in his face, but this year the boy had the best time.  In fact, I dare to say he may have had the most fun out of us all…and that’s a lot of fun.  He led the way into a color filled 3.1 miles.

Harper has the best and most stellar teacher ever.  We saw Mrs. Tanner right at the beginning.  Made Harper’s day.  I cannot get over how much Harper looks like her…she could totally be her kid.

We started out all so fresh and so clean, clean…insert musical lyrics and hot beats.

Then came the color.  First up, yellow.

Then orange.

Next pink.

And last, blue.

Amon did amazing.  He just rolled along in his stroller and got his light dusting of color.  He did freak a bit at the finish line because of the crazy amount of people packed in so tightly, but he got over it quick.

The end was definitely super fun.  Everyone gets their own packet of colored powder and at the finish line everyone goes crazy with their color.  It’s pretty much color bliss.

I love Huddy’s hand on Sol’s head.  Sigh.

Amon was easily the sweetest, littlest Color Runner out there.  They should have given out an award for that.  He would have won.

These people right here…these 5 people…they’re my most favorite people in the whole world.  It was a mighty fun day celebrating Harper and being together.  I totally like our little family.  They’re each pretty dang spectacular.

Happy Tuesday!
