Random

I am at the 3rd church service right now. They are having a baby dedication with about 20 babies. Dedication en masse.

I am ready to be home.

We'll grab something to eat right after service.
We've started a new thing where each week, someone new gets to choose where we go.
This is Amy's week to choose and I have no idea where she wants to go at this point.
It's kind of exciting...
With Tristan, it will always be Outback. He loves their cheese fries and steak so it will always win hands down.
I'm a wildcard.
I may choose Panera or Springcreek BBQ(I love their banana pudding).
I'm just crazy like that.

Where or what are you guys eating for lunch today?

Quick!

Quick post 'cause I'm running on fumes.

Got my race packet today which has all the pertinent race paperwork and numbers and stuff, and we got our bikes dropped off in the transition area.
All is well, my gear is packed and ready to go in the morning. We'll be leaving around 4:45am, a little early, but it'll be worth it.
it's going to be a sweet race:

500meter Swim
15 mile bike
5k run.
Glory at the finish. haha

Check back with you guys tomorrow.

Latahz!

Psyched!

Ok. I'm getting psyched now.

The triathlon is Saturday, but the package pickup and bike drop off will be tomorrow.

I've got my bike in the back of my Jeep right now. Tomorrow when I get off work, I'll head straight up to the Woodlands (just north of Houston) and take care of all that business.
Then, very early Saturday morning(4:45 or so) we'll head up for the race. There will be 1000 participants plus all the volunteers and spectators.
I expect somewhere around 3000. It should be REALLY cool.

I completely missed out on a workout today because of some extenuating circumstances, so I think I'll go for a very easy swim in the morning. Nothing serious, just get in the water and loosen up a bit with a few laps.
I feel good.
It's going to be a great race!

Poor Layla...

Poor Layla...

You may remember the Boxer Layla from last year.
My mother-in-law decided she wanted a dog so Amy and I helped her find one. She was a super cute puppy and grew up into a fine adult dog. She'll be 2 years old this August.


Friday we'll know whether she has cancer or not.

This morning, the vets removed a fairly large tumor from her back and a smaller one from her back leg. The incision on her back is about 6 inches across. It looks so bad...

The thing is, she seemed perfectly ok, full of energy, healthy looking, 62lbs of muscle, and goofy as ever.
She stays with us a lot, probably every other week and we didn't really notice anything out of the ordinary... except for a lump... the next week it seemed bigger, then two lumps...

Anyway, the vet is pretty certain it's cancer, but like I say, we'll know for sure Friday.
Tristan is devastated...
We all are.
