Kenzi's First Day of School & Birthday

Kenzi started pre-school just a couple of weeks before she turned 5, so she just barely missed being in kindergarten this year. Mom doesn't mind having her at home for one more year.

Isn't she a little cutie?!

She loves our little kittens, but unfortunately she's allergic to them, so she has to scrub her hands every time after she holds them and then take allergy medicine if it gets too bad.

Triathlon

This summer my whole family participated in a triathlon. By "my whole family" I mean all my brothers and sisters and my parents. We did a Sprint triathlon, which was 1/2 mile swim, 13 mile bike ride, and 3 mile run. Some of us did it in teams and some as individuals, but EVERYONE participated! (Did I mention that my sister, Jenny, was 5 months pregnant and did the whole thing?!!)

Body for Life

I know these are extremely embarrassing pictures, but I had a ton of people who asked to see them, so here are our before and after pictures after completing the 12-week Body For Life challenge. I'm kind of disappointed that we never did get these entered into the competition because we were in the middle of moving and the computer was all packed up and life was just a little too crazy to write an essay, but regardless, we had fun doing it and were pretty happy with the results. (More pictures of our crazy, busy summer to come!)
