Windsor Field Day!

My kids have always loved field day.  They don't always win the blue ribbon but they love trying!  We have a tradition of putting football black marks under eyes, Mom always works at one or more of the races and we seem to always win the three-legged race.  Nikki wasn't with her favorite partner this year and missed out on the grand prize.  Sidney and her friend Brooke won every year and even raced the boy winners in 6th grade and won!  Sid still brags about it every year.  This was Conners first year to race and he thought it was really fun.

Learning the ropes of becoming a man!

Conner has been helping out a lot at home lately while Scott has been working out of town.  He takes the garbage out, tucks me in sometimes, and asks if I need anything all the time.  This morning he got the weed eater out put his glasses on and started weed eating.  It was so cute that he noticed that we needed the lawn finished.  He didn't come and ask for any help.  We just heard him out there working! What a cutie!

The triathalon!

So I know all you that read my blog have been dying for me to post about the tri!  haha  Well it came and it was really fun.  Jess, Sid, Mer and I ran it together.  After a few mishaps before the race all went really well.  I was proud of my girls for finishing it with little or no training.  (Sid)  My time was better than I had expected.  Jess is getting sick of me telling people she only beat me by a minute and half  but it makes me feel good about my oldness! haha!  Here are our pics! Thanks everyone for supporting!

Jess and the proud Momma

Jess has to be one of the hardest working teens I know.  Not only did she decide to go to summer school.  She took on waitressing at goodwood this past month.  She still dances with the Thunder and teaches at two studios.  We just watched her end of the year front and center concert.  She had choreographed and taught 15 dances this year at the one studio.  All her girls love her.  She did a great job with them too. She still works out almost everyday and just ran a triathalon this past weeked. She also has a full time serious boyfriend, who she tries to fit into to all this.  Super Girl. Way to go jess.  You are the best.
