Sunday Bike Race, G-ma Melvene and Rick, and Despicable Me "Oh, Yeh"

It was a beautiful Fall Cyclocross race at Woodland Park on Sunday. The colorful leaves were all on the ground, tons of bikers of all ages, and a huge turn out for the kids race. Cousin Jackson came and did his first Cyclocross race and had a blast! After his race was D's.  She was super excited to beat some boys. AND even more stoked to have a big cheer section that included Auntie Beans, Mom, Dad, Bridget and baby Poppy, and G-ma Melvene and her new husband, Rick!

It was all smiles until the line up then it was pure concentration!  Pappa Matt was leading the kids race which Dylan loved.  She was out to win!

Afterwards we had a nice visit with G-ma Melvene and Rick who came back to the house.  There was tea, books, pumpkin cake, Hello Kitty's and paper dolls, AND even Donald Duck (Rick totally won D over with his impersonation - which he will now be doing every time she sees him!).

Later that afternoon Dylan and I headed up to our friends Akemi and Yumi's house for a little viewing of Despicable Me and a full on super yummy bagel bar - 'Oh Yeh!' (to quote Vector for those of you who have seen the movie - it's D's new favorite line).

Thanks to all who came to support and cheer our little racer on!  It was an action packed day for sure.  D's eye were shut before her head hit the pillow!
