Triathlon

Bob and mom participated in the Jackson County Triathlon!! Bob finished in 1 hour and 30 min. and my mom finished only 9 min. after he did (she is almost 60)! By the way, I am a terrible spectator because I want to participate, so next year I am doing it too!

Sun rising over Longview Lake the morning of the Triathlon-pretty spectacular!

The three of us before the start. In the background you can see how foggy it was, however the fog burned off before they began their swim.

Mom before the swim.


Bob is somewhere in the heat getting ready to swim! Ready...

Set!

Go!

A few memories from Summer 2010

Stuey McBrews is our new favorite bar/restaurant in downtown Lee's Summit! We celebrated the Welch/Bixler Extravaganza there:).

Madilyn's first birthday!

Boating days! Gilder caught not one, but two ducks with his bare hands(the ducks weren't harmed)!

Brian fished all day and caught a tiny blue gill :).
