Thankful for Rosses

This year we decided to do our Ross reunion at Thanksgiving rather than in the summer. We rented a big house up in the hills of Sandy so we could all be together under one roof. We did some fun outings for things like laser tag, and the lights on Temple Square, and we cooked out Thanksgiving dinner as a group effort. I am sure thankful for these people that I get to call family!

AZ State Four-peat!

Bowen was the favorite this year to win the Arizona state cross-country title. He has had a fantastic season and has run very strong all season long. The team as a whole was also looking great, and we were pretty confident that things would go our way on the day of the big race.

Bowen ran a good race coming in at 16:20 for third place. The boys pulled off an amazing team victory with three runners in the top five. This is the fourth year in a row that the Sand Devils have come out on top. Bowen was a little disappointed that he didn't get the individual title, but he has emerged as such a great leader for his team. He has grown by leaps and bounds this year, and we are so proud of him and his accomplishments!
