Sorry it's been so long......

I apologize for leaving the "blogworld" for a few months, but I am going to attempt to do better. We live such hectic lives and my type A personality won't let me just type a brief post that is not perfected a jillion times so a week turns into 2 weeks then a month then I realize I will have to do a LONG post or MULTIPLE posts to catch up and I can't find the time. Then a month turns into 4 months in a matter of time!!! So here I am - and instead of trying to go back 4 months, I will just start from now and like I said ATTEMPT to do better!

NEW ORLEANS - JASON'S 9TH MARATHON
We headed south to the Big Easy January 31-February 1 to watch Jason run his 9th marathon. He had his fastest time of 4:01 so we were very proud of him! He never ceases to amaze me - I truly love him with all my heart! I thank God for him daily!

After mile 2.....

After mile 23....


On his way to the finish line...

After crossing the finish line and receiving his medal....so tired yet still so handsome!

Funny signs we saw along the way.......


The night before the race we all went out to eat to Bubba Gump's restaurant and walked around downtown for a little while. We saw these guys that were breakdancing and competed on America's Got Talent even. They were really, really good and funny! Then we headed back to the hotel where Kinsley and I made signs for Daddy!!

Kinsley's food came in this neat little boat.....too cute!


Posing with Daddy at the dinner table....we haven't quite figured out the "Smile, show me your teeth, say cheese!" thing yet....

He slid all the way across the dancefloor on his head....pretty impressive!

Breakdancing!

Kinsley liked the dancers and even danced along with them a little bit (in Poppa's arms)!

Making signs in the hotel room....Kinsley added her own drawings and stickers to them!

Kenda, I'm glad to see you haven't bailed completely. You are an excellent writer. I always look forward to reading about yall. And, trust me, after you've been blogging for three years, you will LOVE looking back and reading your early posts!! I'm not a scrapbooker, so thank goodness for blogs! :)
I saw Jason and Kinsley at Brookshire's yesterday. She is as cute as she can be!!!!

Hey Kenda! I am so impressed that Jason has run 9 marathons! I think running even one is awesome, but 9?!! Jeez! It makes me tired just thinking about it! Can't wait to "hear" more from y'all!

Jason and his marathons never cease to amaze me. I'm right there with you on the type A blogging. I'm so far behind that I may actually be ahead...LOL.

And to think, I was going to say that Kinsley did a great job writing on those signs.....LOL.
