1st Annual Blaine Triathalon


This past Saturday Jim participated in Blaine's 1st Annual Triathlon. Jim stepped out of his comfort zone with the biking and swimming portions of the event. He trained so hard for this race and did great despite the heat and 30 mph winds. My dad and Linda came into town and got to help me cheer on Jim and corral the kids. Not sure I would have made it without their help! Later, they took the kids out to dinner and put them to bed so Jim and I could enjoy a celebratory dinner. Thanks Dad and Linda!

Jim, we are all so proud of you and love you very much!! Here are some pictures!
