Drew as Eragon – Arts Run 2008
by Dave Wilson on Sep.14, 2008, under Uncategorized
I must admit to feeling a bit of a hopeless photographer-Dad in that I have terrible trouble getting decent pictures of my own kids. This is partly due to the fact that I’m not particularly comfortable taking people photos at the best of times (some people seem to have the knack of getting models to be at ease and look their best – I’m not one of them) and part of it is that the boys tend to run around faster than my focusing and framing skills can handle.
Last weekend, however, we went into downtown Austin and the boys and Nikki ran in the 2008 Arts Run – a kids’ K and 5K raising funds for the Paramount and State Theatres. It was a fun event with a lot of the runners in costume (“Dress as your favourite film character”), Drew was dressed as Eragon but had a hard time keeping his helmet on. In the end, I got to hang on to it during the race but I did get one cute photo of him before the helmet got the heave.
