Sher the Love: Marathon pics!

Marathon pics!

I just got an email with the proofs from the marathon. Since I'm cheap, and I enjoy stealing every now and again, I just copy/pasted the proofs into my pictures.

Here they are. I don't know if you'll be able to see or not, or if they'll just be thumbnails. I guess we'll see. Here goes......

This is about mile 13-15 or so. See how happy I am? (I'm in the pink) I thought I was so funny "flashing" the camera, so they could see my bib #.

Yeah, not so happy anymore. Mile 24-25-ish.

Sprinting for the finish line.

Almost there.....

Trent, Nicole, Annette, Me, and Brant? (Trent's bro) from my running group, after finishing.

Nicole, Annette & Me

Jan said...: This proves everything Sher. My friend and neighbor and her sister ran this marathon. I asked her yesterday how she was feeling. She told me she couldn't move and needed a massage. She went half way sick though. Good job and I loved the pics.; October 7, 2008 at 9:42 PM

Andrea said...: The pictures look especially great with the wet ground and seeing the reflection in the ground. Kind of reminds me of running on the beach.; October 8, 2008 at 9:46 AM

What did you say?

My kids say the darndest things, so here are a few examples:

May 2010; TJ said: "Mom, I could count to 300. I could keep counting forever. Even when I'm a sleep."

Mar 2010; C said: "TJ, why don't you have some more bacon?"

TJ: "I can't! I'm full of it!"

C: "Yes, you are."

Mar 2010; TJ sang: ♫"Should I give up, or should I just keep chasin' Cavemen?"♫

Mar 2010; Mom: "Who wants to come with me to Sam's Club?"

TJ & Peter: " Meeee!"

Upon arriving at Sam's, Peter, with a disappointed look said: "I thought we were going to Santa's club. Where are the elves?"

Dec 2009; Peter said: "I just love my chocolate raindrop pointy fings." (hershey's kisses)

Aug 2009: Peter said: "Mama, when you give me kisses it goes straight to my heart."

Aug 2009: TJ, after seeing two guys on motorcycles drive by, one wearing red, and the other in yellow, said: "There goes ketchup and mustard!"

May 2009; KJ said: "I want to be a professional jump roper when I grow up."

Mar 2009; TJ said: "I just love Life!" (talking about the cereal, but I got his double meaning).

Mar 2009; KJ said in an email: "Mom and Dad, I hope you have a fun time in HO Y E."

Jan 2009; TJ said: "Mom, Dad and I are playing Mario Kart, and Dad came in oneth, and I came in twoth!"

Dec 2008; TJ said: "I love shrimp more than people love Jesus!"

Dec 2008; TJ said: "I kindof don't like you, a little bit, Peter. But, I love you more than I don't like you."

Dec 2008: While I was playing the piano and telling TJ to go clean his room, he said: "Other people playing music makes me lazy."

Oct 2008: TJ said: "MOM! Look at me so I know you're listening!"

Oct 2008; TJ said: I don't have a forehead anymore. Now I have a fivehead, and Peter has a threehead, and you have a thirtyhead."

Sept 2008; Peter said: "Mama, I need to call the policeman. Cuz I need to tell him its okay for me to have some fishies."

Sept 2008; Peter said: "I wanna dwinkamikaboo."
Translation: I want a drink of milk in a boo.

Translation of the translation: A boo is a sippy cup. All three of my kids have used this term. I'm pretty sure it stemmed from boob.

Sept 2008; TJ said: "Bacon and eggs are the keys to my heart." ;)

Sept 2008; Peter said: "Mama, what are you doing in there? Are you stinkering?"

Sept 2008; KJ said: "Mom, you need to go to the doctor and have them check your ears, because I say your name over and over and you never hear me, so you must be going deaf."

Sept 2008; KJ & TJ said: "No, Mom, you just don't get it!"

Aug 2008; TJ said: (during sacrament meeting) "This is too boring....it's giving me a heachache."

Aug 2008; TJ said: "Mom, I need 8 cheese tacos. Cuz that's how many hungry I am."

July 2008; TJ's song: ♫"I love my Mom and my Dad and everyone in the whole wide world except the people I don't know and the bad guys."♫

July 2008; KJ said: "I think the worker guys sometimes break the road and fix it again, just for fun."

July 23, 2008; KJ said: "I don't ever wanna live away from the mountains, cuz I don't want a tomato to get me."
Translation: tornado
