Lilly's Birthday and the Pumpkin Man

LILLY TURNED "TEEEEW"!!! That's how Lilly says 2 and instead of holding her pointer and middle finger up to signify 2 and PEACE, she holds her pointer and thumb up to form an L, probably for LOVE. I can't believe she is already teeeew. It seems like yesterday that I was sick in the hospital and Lilly arrived. Sick with the flu, I was a lot of help. I remember sleeping most of the time and trying not to get my germs all over the place. No one else got sick, so I guess I did my part.

We had all of Lilly's friends over for a fish themed birthday party. Jenn had been planning for the party since about April, right after Annison's 4th. Once again, she did a great job for the party. I hope the girls look back and remember how cool her Mom was for always making their birthday's so special. Oh, I did my part too, I cleaned up dog poop and sprayed off the backyard so it didn't completely smell like dog urine. :)

I of course have no pictures to show of the party, they are all loaded on the camera still and I have no idea where it is. I did take this photo last week, when Jenn was out and about and it was a Daddy and girl night.


For some time now, I've been debating about doing a sprint Triathlon. A sprint is .6 mile swim, 12 mile bike, and 3.2 mile run. October 18th, is the Pumpkin Man in Boulder City. At lunch the other day I mentioned to Ryan, Keith and Marshall that I was considering it. Keith immediately got on board. We have started training today and have 10 weeks to prepare. The motivation is to actually do it and say I did it. I'm confident that I'll be able to complete the race. My goal is to complete the race without having to rest along the way. Wish me luck!
