Preschool Trike-a-Thon

Madeline's preschool holds a trike-a-thon each spring in order to raise money for St. Jude Children's Hospital.  It's a cute event.  Prior to the actual riding, bicycle safety and a little bit about St. Jude are taught in the classroom.  All of the students must wear their helmets as they make laps around the entire church campus.

Of course, Madeline and her little friend, Aubrey, are side by side in almost matching princess bikes.



 Amelia wandered the courtyard while the kids were riding.  She got extremely excited when she saw Madeline riding by and toddled her way as fast as her little legs could carry her.

 Frick and Frack still side by side.

 Easily distracted by her little sister, Madeline slowed down, and Aubrey was off like Lance Armstrong!

 Coming to the finish line - slow and steady...

 Rounding the corner to park her bike...

 Amelia definitely got squirrely as she couldn't just wander around anywhere she pleased, so thank goodness for my friend Misty who took over Amelia patrol for awhile.  Amelia was perfectly happy on her hip!

What a fun morning watching all the kids ride their bikes while helping to raise money for other children who are unable to do so!
