IT'S THE ROUND FACE ISN'T IT??

Fun stuff below. I got a great link to myheritage.com from my cousin Dan. I think Mitchell looks just like Kev personally... but my round face is probably tipping the scales. Try it... it's fun! You can also create your own family tree!

OUR FIRST TRIATHLON!!

Kevin and I competed in our FIRST triathlon last Saturday! We were in Burley, Idaho for the Spudman. What an exilerating experience!!! We finished very proud and had a TON of fun! Here are some great pictures THANKS to TENILLE!!! She, Rylee, Boston, Mitchell and Rachel were our cheering section.... Tenille was the star kid wrangler and athlete photographer! We LOVE ya Nille-mom!

Now those are a couple of happy faces!!
(Kev can even hold me on his back after all that! WHAT A MAN!)

The kids had a blast and were SO good!

We had a fun car ride chatting and goofing around!

The race consisted of a 1 mile swim in the Snake River... A 26 mile bike ride... and a 6.2 mile run! This is us before the swim... My wave was just about to begin...Mitchell and Rachel were there to toss us into the river!!!

Ok, that's a scary picture... but I figured I'd post it anyway! Wow, bright swim cap, goggle eyes... and cavity free! That's what a swimming Dental Hygienist looks like before a big race! Click on and enlarge at OWN risk!!

We were so happy to have 2 of our 3 cute kiddos there to watch the race! That meant a lot to us! Tate stayed at home. We missed ya buddy!

Getting ready for the swim start! Can you see me with my arms up!! Geeez.... always about the pictures.... Get your head in the game Stac!!

Kev had the fashionable orange cap! Lookin' hot babe!

Kev the fish

My swim wave waiting for the GO horn!
(I was a few heads to the outside of the orange and white buoy)

Travis, Kev and I taking our bikes to the T1 bike transition the day before!

They had a carb dinner for us the night before the race. I'm talkin a plate load of carbs!

There were rows and rows of bikes... we set things up just right for a quick transition from our wet suits to the bike!

This is T2 the bike to run transition. We crossed the bike finish line and then quickly racked our bike and put on our running shoes for the last 10K run. Beautiful country huh? The trees up there were gorgeous!

Another view of the T2 area. We had our running shoes and hats set out there the night before.

bikes heading in to the T2 area


We have some video of us coming from bike to run..... and then running to the finish line that I will try and post asap! There aren't any still pictures... the running course was out on the dirt roads and through the town of Burley... Fun stuff!


THE FINISH LINE!!!
WE DID IT!!!

Such a proud moment!

Paul, Kevin and Travis!
The guys trained together over the months.... way to go studmen!!

Group shot! What a FANTASTIC way to spend a Saturday morning! Bryan Flamm was also there... we missed him for this pitcure!

~SEE YA NEXT YEAR BURLEY~
