We all went down to Las Vegas last week so Logan could compete in his first big race, the Redline Cup Championship. Unfortunately, the whole family came down with a bad cold and cough the whole week, including Logan who gets asthma when he is sick and can't breath~it's terrible when you're trying to compete and you need to use your inhaler before each race! The first day he raced against 45 other six-year old intermediates and was able to finish fourth! The following day, he made it to the semi's where the first four would make it to the finals, and he finished fifth~right behind the fourth place kid! He was so upset and disappointed, but we were so proud of him for accomplishing what he did because there were kids from all over the country there and the competition was fierce. He gave it his all, and even though he didn't feel well he never gave up. It was a great experience for all of us and we're looking forward to starting our indoor bmx season next week. The best part of being down in Vegas was we were able to spend a little time with Gma and Gpa K who we haven't seen in months. Gpa looked so good, after having a major surgery in June where they removed a thirty pound tumor from his abdomen, and he is currently receiving chemo treatments weekly. Poor Logan had to wear a mask so that Gpa wouldn't catch his cold. The boys love it at their house, and are definitely spoiled when they are there. We were also able to "run into" the Vincents who were on their way to Disneyland. The boys were so surprised to see them and they all had fun running around the MGM and M&M factory on the strip. We had a fun week, but it was so nice to be back home and back into the routine of our lives!
