Cross Country Crazyness

In the Wolfe family we are kind of known for two different ability's: music and athletics. Were not all incredible at either one but, they are both part of all of our lives. My mom when raising us wanted us to persue some music but balance it with a sport. She wanted this to develop us cultural and for the health of our body's.
This weekend I got the change to drive down to Monmouth to watch a cross country meat. Jordan and Jessica are the runners in the family that are beyond imagination good.
The day was beautiful and in perfect conditions for a race. Jordan ran the boys varsity race. he finished second with a time of sixteen twenty something. he looked so strong, we were all so proud of him. Jessica as a freshman ran varsity and WON! She is such a stud and never ceases to amaze me. I was blown out of the water with her performance. I mean who wins, let alone wins as a freshman?
The whole day just amazed me. One the way over I got caught in a lot of traffic. There was a beaver game going on. It cracked me up, every car I passed had OSU flags and the passengers were wearing orange t-shirts. I just drove by them all yelling (with the windows up) in my green car, with an Oregon sticker on the front and with my Green Oregon sweatshirt... "I'm a duck!!!!" That was a fun adventure.
When we bought my little Green Subaru, on the drive back a hub cap flew off and on my way back from the meet I lost another one! It made me so mad, I had just bought a new set of hub caps. It just rolled into a grassy middle section. I am so tempted to go back there tomorrow and get it...I'll keep you posted on that one
