My Sis' is Bad A!

My sis made a commitment to herself to be crazy this year and do a couple Triathalons and a half marathon. Along with her other 5K's that she does. ;) She competed in the Woman of Steel Tri in May in American Fork to start the year off right!

She was all smiles with nerves of steel
Go 182!

This is one of my fav pics. Jess lookin like she's walking on water :)

I love the Moon in the background of Jess' 2 biggest fans, her boy Dylan and Grandpa Smith

Jess said she really like this Tri as her first because it's in a pool rather than a lake or pond so it's not quite as intimidating!

Dylan showing me how his Mom does the back stroke

Her second lap and she's even smiling!
It was nice that she had a blue helmet and red shirt. She wasn't too hard to spot. It also helped that Aaron was timing about the time that she should be riding past us. :)

It's a race to the finish and Aaron is getting it all documented like a true photographer!

It's a close call, but I think Jess won! ;)

And of course she's still smiling!

The Happy Family :)

My Nephew Ian is like, Totally Cool!

And he had a cool new deck to go along with said coolness.

We were in Salem yesterday

Here's our proof:

Test no. A

Snow in Spokane, Sunny in Seattle

Yesterday I was in Spokane where it was cold cold cold and snowy...

Today I woke up to sunside in Seattle!

Don't mind Tenaya eating Space Needle. It's just... something... she... does... nevermind.

To celebrate the Sunshine I bought new Kicks :)

(...don't tell Kendall I bought more shoes) o_O

Love You Scottie

Tonight I love the dog that became a part of my family 16 years ago and, even though he is now gone, will stay in my heart for ever.

I love you Scottie.

I Almost Died Yesterday (review)

Imagine being in a tree... losing your grip... and falling... backwards. Good thing I knew there was a giant limb there so I didn't die. Bad thing that there was another giant limb by my leg that tried to amputate me and leave me legless from the knee down!

This is a picture story of how I almost died yesterday. For the in depth story click here.

Just Millie (the dog) and Me climbing a tree to rescue her toy

I know it doesn't look that high cause you can't see the ground but I'm higher than the fence and only half way up to where i was going!

Careful Millie! Don't look down!

I just fell backwards in a tree and cut up my leg. At least I didn't DIE!
Next is to dodge that power line and get the rope.

Minor Flesh wounds... should I go to the hospital? Na, I've got two roomies to help... oh wait, one of them just fainted.

My nurses station

Not the prettiest, but I'm all bandaged up and ready to climb more trees!

SIDENOTE: I did get the toy rope from the tree after almost dieing and dodging a few power lines!
