| Waiting for the 400m race to begin |
Krissia has once again decided to compete in track, and we couldn't be happier. It's fun to sit outside in the sun and watch these athletes push themselves, and it certainly brings back good memories of former days for both me and DEl.
Saturday, Desert Hills competed in a 16 school meet held in Kanab. We decided to drive out there to support Krissia and headed out with our two youngest boys in tow. We arrived just in time to watch Krissia compete in the 400m trials - and she did great, making it to the finals! During the hour long lunch break, we found a great little park and ate a picnic lunch. Then, we headed back to the meet to watch our daughter try the long jump for the first time. She was a little shaky on her first few tries, but really nailed it on her final jump. Krissia put in a solid showing for her debut at jumping, and hopes that practice will help her qualify for the upcoming BYU track meet at the end of the month.
At this point, we left the meet so we could get home in time for DEl and Jefferson to attend the General Conference priesthood session. However, there was one event left for Krissia: the 4x100m relay. Her team took first place! We can't wait to watch them next time!
All in all, it was a great day. There was only one thing I would have changed - next time, I am definitely using sunscreen. My neck was fried to a crisp :(

I can't wait to go to one of her track meets! :)
Someone needs to tell that girl that it's okay to relax and not be busy all the time! Maybe track is relaxing after competing in swimming. Hope she does well!
