Phoenix Bubble Run 2015

On April 25th Pila and the four oldest ran/walked a 5k bubble run. I signed them up for it clear back in February a few days before Izzy was born. It's crazy to think it was that long ago, yet the time has gone by so fast!! We have a sort of unwritten bucket list (we will for sure write it down one of these days....probably on our next 5 hour drive to California) anyways a family 5k was on it.

One of Ami's friends was staying with us for the weekend, while his parents went to Utah to be extras in a movie. I felt bad that he wasn't running with everybody else but it was to late to sign him up. There was a TON of people there. Here they are at the beginning of the race.

Mid-race. How it worked is....there were bubble bogs all along the way, meaning a big bubble machine would shoot out bubbles that would be anywhere from 5-7 feet deep and you ran through the bubbles (which were all different colors) I have tons of videos that Pila took and I will try to upload them into this post.

They had these huge bubbles machines everywhere (you can see one in the background) that would constantly let bubbles out, making bubble piles that could completely engulf an adult. Meilani was very hesitant to touch the bubbles, I would have thought she would jump right in them.

Izzy slept most of the time, it started pretty early in the morning and was a little bit chilly.

Had to get a picture of me trying to persuade her to go to the bubbles.

They gave all of the kids 5 and under googles so the bubbles wouldn't get in their eyes. I LOVE this picture, makes me smile every time I look at it:)

After....I would say they had a lot of fun, they would say the bubbles were fun, the running was not. Our kids definitely take after me and don't really love running.
