ADA - Tour De Cure Ride 09

Dad and I

Team Boeing

Dustin, Nathan, Courtni, Randy

We missed you Austin, Kendi, Chris, and Kelli!

This morning, Nate, Dad, and I headed west to Mustang at 5:45am to ride in the 3rd annual American Diabetes Association TDC ride. Nathan rode last year, at that time I was 5 months pregnant with Jackson, so this was my first time to ride in this event. It was HOT! I'm pretty sure it was near 90 at 7:30am when we began. It was a long 4 hour ride, hot and windy! I am very proud of Nathan and Dad and myself. We were a part of team Boeing and we collectivley raised the biggest amount of money, $6300, to help find a cure for diabetes, a disease that personally affects many members of my family, including Nate. Nathan was the team captain, so I was a very proud wife and fellow teammate. I knew he worked really hard to get donations and also to compete in this ride. Great job Nathan and Dad! I will also honorably mention Dad and note the fact that he had a bad sinus infection while he rode, but he pulled through and did great! I am proud of you Dad!

Road Trip

After a lot of work, both at home and at our jobs, our family needed to get out of town! Friday, Nathan and I took the kids and took a road trip tp Texas. We had a great time and it made me wish we were on a "real vacation." It's been way too long. As a kid and up until my late teens, my family and I took vacation's every summer. The past two years, being pregnant with Jackson and building a home, Nathan and I haven't taken one and I am missing them! However, I was thankful to get away and enjoy some time with Nathan, Hailee, and Jackson.

My Men

So, it's that time of year again when Nathan decides to break out the clippers and shave his hair off. He prefers it that way when cycling season comes around. He's done it every summer for the past few years. I don't mind it, it's hair, it'll grow back. I shaved it off for him last weekend and left a line down the front so that he would be able to make a mohawk, just like Jackson. Not to worry, after the pic, I shaved it off!

The Best Pictures EVER!

Check it out....http://randycolemanphotography.com - go to the blog site

We had family pics made last night and I can't get over how wonderful they are. A pastor at our church took them and I'm telling you, he is wonderful! These are the kind of pics I have always imagined having. I've only seen a handful, I can't wait to see what the others look like, I already know I will need to get more frames!

Thanks Randy!

Good Friends

Wednesday night, Nathan, the kids and I met two of my best friends at the park for a picnic and some play time. I have known Cynda and Kristen for over 20 years now, wow! Kristen has two precious boys, Davis and Ronin with her wonderful husband Kevin. Kevin served all of us proudly in the Army for 5 years (I think). He recently has now become a civilian again and they are moving back to Oklahoma from Colorado, and I am so excited to have them close. Cynda is married to another amazing man, Jeff. They are expecting their first little one in November, I'm calling a girl! I cannot believe how much we have grown seperatley and together. I am so lucky to have had these women in my life for so long. I love them, I'm proud of them and I love their families. Here are a few pics of the fun time at the park with all of them.
