About a year ago my friend Brent told me about the “Build and Grow” program that Lowe’s sponsors. Well my curiosity once again got the best of me.

Happy Easter Everyone
I’m including some pics of the boys coloring Easter eggs. I will admit using the egg beater as a egg holder is brilliant. We’re glad Mom read that in a magazine!

Fun Times at the Dallas Zoo
Decided to take Good Friday off and take the kids to the Dallas Zoo. I had not seen the new Giants of the Savanna area. I must say, impressive. I have a feeling the Elephants, the Giraffes, and the Cheetahs are much happier now.

Let it Snow!
I grew up in Iowa so I have seen my share of snow, but my kids have not. Snow in Texas is rare. For the last two years I have been incredibly lucky and so have my kids!
Here today and gone tomorrow, the best kind of snow!

Santa Claus Was Here
We are not sure who likes Santa Claus more, the kids or us. What we do know is that with kids our faith in the Christmas spirit is back.

Merry Christmas!
Can you believe December is already here again? The last year has been both fun and fast with two young kiddos on the move. Our pictures over the last year should tell the story.. We wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and the best for the New Year. XOXO!

Behind a Rock and 26.2 miles
At the beginning of 2010 I had no ambitions on running a marathon. June rolls around and I guess my wife had heard enough complaining from me in regards to how stressed out I was all the time. She knows if I’m working out regularly my stress tends to vanish so she signed me up with a program at Luke’s Locker in Allen called Allen Fit. She had trained with Luke’s in Houston several years ago and stated she loved their programs. I had even went on quite a few runs with them back in my triathlon training days. Heck, why not, I could do the half or the full. Deep down I knew I was going to do the full so the full is the group I stood proudly with on that early Saturday morning in June.

Gobble! Gobble!
Thanksgiving day started out early with a 7am wakeup call for my brother-in-law and I as we made our annual pilgrimage to downtown Dallas to run in the Turkey Trot. 8 miles in fairly cold and windy conditions with 40,000 other turkey eaters.
