Running the Bases

Yesterday was the final game of the last home regular season series for our LSU Tigers baseball team.
Though they lost, we ended the season on a high note....... On Sundays, kids can run the bases following the game and yesterday was the day we finally hung around to let Buck-a-roo and Frank-o do just that!
They've run the bases before but it's equally as fun {and competitive} each time!

on Frank-o’s Kindergarten school year.  Tonight was his End-of-the-Year program/Kindergarten graduation.

If this post seems familiar…….same post, same occasion, same program, this time last year.

Got the t-shirt! … in a different color …

It seems as though this’ll be our order of events for the next few years to come.

Slight role reversal on the proud brother scene…….

And the same two very proud parents!!

Coincidentally, Frank-o recited the very same last line of the program that Buck-a-roo recited in the microphone last year.  Frank-o told us that he requested that of his teacher (also Buck-a-roo’s Kindergarten teacher). 

Truth……maybe?  Special…..indeed!

Let's Rock n Roll

Another big {running} weekend for the Vaughn Family is coming to an end .....

We spent the weekend in New Orleans for the Rock n Roll Marathon!

The fun began on Saturday when the boys ran the ING Kids Rock 1-mile Run!


They had a blast! It was my first time to race with them, so I had fun too! Buck-a-roo pulled ahead of Frank-o and I but we (all three) finished strong!

Today was Daddy Buck's race..... the Rock n Roll New Orleans Half Marathon. It was his second half marathon. And, by far, his biggest race; participant wise, with 22,000 runners!!


He finished at 1:52:25, a personal record for half marathon!
It was my first time spectating, as opposed to running; therefore, it was my first time to actually see Daddy Buck run and finish.......very special!

Another weekend of family running.......we rocked n rolled!
