San Francisco Giants

We recently took a trip to San Francisco and caught a Giants game. The weather was great and even though the Giants didn't win we had a great time! Here are some pictures from the day.

Track & Field

Claire ran track this year for her school. It was a blast to watch her run and it was fun to go the meets as a family. Her coach was Mr. Tindall, which was cool since we went to school with his boys. Needless to say, he was happy to have a Norris on his track team!
Here are the races Claire ran and her personal best times:

• 100m -- 13.10 (2nd all-time school record for both 7th and 8th grade)
• 200m -- 28.41 (6th all-time school record for both 7th and 8th grade)
• 4x100m Relay -- 53.61 (3rd all-time school record for both 7th and 8th grade)

In Finals she ran against the best of 16 schools. Here are her placings:

• 100m -- 2nd Place
• 200m -- 4th Place
• 4x100m Relay -- 1st Place!

Here is Claire in the finals running the 200m

Here is Claire running anchor in the 4x100m in the finals. Her team took 1st Place!

My Turn For Some Catch Up...

So the holidays are officially over and I thought I would post a few pictures of the happenings in our neck of the woods:

I thought I would let you see what Brody looks like now. He is 14 months old.

Our good boy Brody!!
