Nickle Dickle Day 2008

Waconia's annual Nickle Dickle Day was held this past Saturday. It's a fun-filled day with a running race (kids and adults), car show, craft fair, food, entertainment, etc, etc. We always enjoy going to it and seeing many of our friends from around town.

Dave ran in the 10K race. It's a nice race because the course literally goes by our front yard. Very easy viewing and cheering for Dad! Lauren, Benjamin & Noah ran in the 1/2 mile race, called the Nickle Dickle Tickle. Lauren and Benjamin had run it before but it was Noah's first time. He was so excited too. Although he was a little confused about how he was going to participate in the race because when we were leaving to go, he said he needed his bike. Because that's what was going to make him go really fast to win the race! Dave also said that half way through the race, he asked Dave if he could have a ride now. Too funny.

Dave finishing the 10K - rainy, cold and wet.
