As Promised...

Little Joel....well I guess he is getting really big. He is already in 3 month clothes. Sometimes Joel looks very serious, it's kinda funny.

Well my dad was able to make a pit stop overnight here on his way home from Montana. He got to meet Joel for the first time. Here he is with both the buckaroos!

I was not able to get any pictures of Joel at the marathon. Because silly me forgot to take the Memory card out of my computer which was at the hotel. I only had this little one that came with the camera when we got it and it only holds ten pictures. But don't worry I will get some of him posted in the next day or two.

The Starting Line...

Opening ceremonies for the USAF Marathon.

This is about mile 13. They ran down the main street of this town. There was a live band playing classic rock songs, there was face painting, clowns, balloons and jumpy things for kids to do.

Jason running towards us to say Hi for like a whole 2 seconds.....gotta keep on pace!

Bo watching dad run down the road.

Jason coming down the home stretch. Almost there!!!!

The Home Stretch!

Jason running the home stretch. About 100 feet to go to the finish!

Yeah, cooling down and eating some food. Jason finished the Marathon in 4 hours and 30 minutes. He was the only one to start and finish with the 4:30 pacer guy.

Bo wanted Jason to hold him sooo badly. Jason was so tired though he had to wait about 15 or 20 minutes.

Jason was accompanied by a colonel and a Lt. Colonel (pictured here) and a major from his work. They all ran a great race and they all finished without injury! Way to go!

Jason and I after the race!

I am loving these new in Colors! My Fav so far is this Baja Blue, probably because my living room is decorated in chocolates, golds, and variations of baja breeze. I really like all the colors though. I am going to come up with a new layout for this upsy daisy stamp set, but I really love this set.
