Time warp, June 6

IM had b-day number 5 on the same day as the Eagle River Tri and we spent most of the day watching the girls dominate. Here is AK in her first triathlon.

Two lengths of the back stroke and she was out of the water.

Mom ran to the T1 with the AK super focused.

T1 going smoothly . Skort, shoes, helmet, optional jacket.

And she is off, chopper bars and white tires is what makes this girl so fast. Two mile bike out and back, she was killin' it on the hills.

T2 drop the bike and head out for the 1/2 mile run (in which she developed a side stitch and still wasn't convinced to quit, she gets an atta girl, "atta girl")

Here they are at the finish, nice job AK. Oh yeah and C as well, she dominated on her new bike.
After we went to pizza and began the IM 5 birthday.

The happy 5 year old is FINALLY going to get his prwesents.

Bat man and the Batmobile, AK is obviously pretty excited about that, and IM is looking like he has already got plans for the stopping of bad guys.

Here is a nice item that has the entire house on edge. A nerf bow that actually shoots up to a 100 feet. Put it this way our house is about 60 feet long and IM has taken to stealth shots, that is 40 feet of unannounced kinetic energy being absorbed by my back. He is actually a pretty patient boy and will wait for hours for the perfect kill shot, well maybe not hours.

AK and I agreed it was a pretty awesome day overall. Next year she wants to do the race again when her age group is allowed to go twice the distance.

I still enjoy putting up these videos and watching them. It is way too fun, so here youtube go.

Retro Fit

Computer is back and so are we. Here it comes, extra extra read all about it. It has been fun to see everyone's summer progressing and here comes a little Muddington summer insanity. Enjoy...
Kickin' it off with a b-day for ole' E. Two years old on May 28.
Hats compliments of big sis.

Pop teaching the kid what b-days are all about, tearing paper. Funny how quickly she learned that one.

Modeling the new shades and dress.

Sweet cars that roll on their own.

Cowgirl up.


The video is an AK production and shows the lengths she has to go to get her actors to perform. I can only imagine what E is going to be like when she can fend for herself .
