Another try

Evidently blogger was having some problems last week, because my entire entry about Kami's last track meet was deleted along with several comments from my blog before that - very strange.  Has that ever happened to anyone?  Give me some advice if you've learned anything about how to get entries back, or how to keep it from happening again, etc. Anyways, I'm just letting you know in case you already read that one, so that you don't have to read it again!

Kami finished up her track season this Tuesday and Wednesday.  She accidentally ran in the wrong heat, because while Shawn was giving her some words of encouragement they didn't hear what the announcer was saying, so when Kami's friend told her to that she was supposed to run right then she had to take her word for it.

Luckily there was another girl in her heat that ran it at about the same pace as Kami, so they were able to give each other a good race.  Kami ended up getting another personal best with a mile time of 6:22 and ran the 800 M run in 2:44.

I thought she'd be pretty happy about her time, but when she finished she looked like this:

Sorry, but I don't know how to rotate this

Turns out that she had figured out that she was in the wrong heat and was afraid that her time wouldn't be counted and what- not.  (Which wasn't a huge deal because once the girls from the other heat had run, she was in fourth or fifth place.)  She did a great job, though, and we are very proud of her! I wish that the season could go a little bit longer so that we could see what she is really capable of, because she has managed to improve her time by about ten seconds every time she runs!

Kami ran into her second cousin at the meet, so I grabbed a picture:
Kami and Stephanie
This is Shawn's cousin's daughter, and Kami usually just sees her at family reunions or at a sports event like this one, but they're always excited to bump into each other!

Anyways, Kami has had a really fun season with friends,
Kami and her good friend Megan
and an awesome support and cheering section from family.
Her Gee grandparents, Aunt Kelley and Uncle David (and Bronson and Josh) and Aunt Suzette also came to her meet last week.  Thanks for all the support and cheering, everyone!
