Craziness

I think that there are generally 3 types of crazy people in this world:

1. There are those crazy people who hang glide, bungee jump and rock climb without ropes...yes, just plain crazy!

2. Then there are those who see and talk to people that aren't actually there...I can sympathize with these people because they can't help their craziness...

3. Lastly, the crazy 143 people that ran a 50 mile race right along with my CRAZY hubby!!!

That's right, Bob ran a 50 mile race a couple of weekends ago. And not just any old 50 miler - the Tahoe Rim Trail 50 mile - which goes up and down extremely steep peaks! Whew, I'm tired just thinking about it! Here's some pics of the race: We caught up with him at the half way point! It was fun to cheer him on - and Look, he's even smiling after 25 miles!! :)


My boys showing daddy the posters they made for him. Brayden's said "Run, Cheetah, run!!" and Colby's said "Go, Dad, Go!". They had fun coloring them.

Craig (Bob's bro) and Cynthia came down from Idaho for the event! What a nice brother reapplying sunscreen for the second half! After Bob took off again, we all took the kids and relaxed on the beach while Bob kept on running and running and running..........

Then we went to the finish where Lily konked out in her stroller.


Brayden and Colby playing with some sticks while we waited for Bob.

Brayden pretending to be an Indian.

Colby found a cool stick.

Okay, now we're bored.....

And, he FINISHED!! Hooray Bobby Boy!


After race pic with his boys.

He can finally sit down and relax! (Until we had to walk up the hill to the car...hee hee) We're proud of you honey!!
