Turtle Race time

Waiting so patiently with Daddy for her time to race.
Connor was in the first heat.  His turtle didn't win; but Speedy made a valliant effort!  Notice how much bigger he is... must be that the "big city turtles" are bigger.

Uncle Michael had found a turtle for Ashley that was much more her size.  Poor little Princess was a little scared and didn't move at all...
Since we were headed to Colorado shortly after the turtle races were over with Kenton's parents we had to let the turtles go.  We decided that the golf course would be a great place.  There were a couple of tears as Connor bid farwell.

FINALLY a posting from you - I thought Ashely's hair would be half way down her back it has been so long since we have heard from you! That is rather sad the turtles had to be let go but it sounds like it was for the best. That is cute that Ashley named her turtle Princess.

Fun to have turtle races. There are plenty of them in OK. Sweet pictures of one and all
