Events in Pictures

The beginning of the American Heroes Race on Memorial Day. Kelsie and I walked the 5K, Wayne and Rob ran the 5K and Jeff ran the 10K. This was the opening ceremony.
Kelsie and I at the end of our 5K walk. Our goal was 50 minutes and we did it in 48.
Rob and Wayne after they ran the 5K, they did it in about 30 minutes.
Jeff at the finish line after the 10K - good job Jeff!!
The running crew.
This is Kelsie with "Baby" We found this Sharpae puppy on the street in the rain on Saturday evening. After driving around the neighborhood for over an hour, no owner in sight. We put signs out that night and decided to wait through the weekend to see if his owners called. No calls. We named him "Baby" b/c he cried at night and would finally fall asleep on the floor next to the couch where I had to sleep for 3 nights so he wouldn't walk around and howl. He was a cute little guy but too big for us to keep (just 3 months or so) and Bogey didn't really like him. We took him to the Humane Society Lost and Found on Tuesday afternoon. We were glad to have him as a house guest for a few days but I think Bogey was happy to get his family back.
"Baby" - isn't he soooo cute?
The Friday before Memorial Day we were planning to go to the lake but the weather was too bad so we went to Dinosaur Valley Park instead. This was a deer we saw off the road. We also saw a mom and baby deer - so cute.
Kelsie and Christa swam across the river in a shallow area to the big rocks. They look tiny compared to the massive rocks.


The girls swimming - we started out with ponchos and jackets but as you can see that didn't last long before they were completely in and swimming.
Building a dam on the river's edge.
Panoramic view of the main trail where the dino tracks are - you couldn't see them this day b/c the river was up. Kelsie and Christa when we first started out - nice and dry....didn't last long.
Kelsie feeding Bogey with a bottle. It was hilarious b/c he actually loved it. We cracked up!

Looks like an eventful start to summer for you all. "Baby" is so cute - wish I could have adopted him for you. Congrats, Kelsie, on your awards. Look forward to seeing you all soon - less than 2 months!
