St. Paul Classic Bike Tour

This morning we woke up before the sun and traveled into St. Paul for the Classic!

Don't you just love that sea of helmets?

We went with Malachi's parents.

Malachi and his dad

His mom

Haters can hate, but fanny packs rule.

There were several bike creations around.  Like this fish:

Or this guys tiger bike

This guy made some sort of cross trainer which is a little too much exercise in my opinion.

And then there was this little double seater, with room for their dog!

Ready?  Let's Go!!

It was really cold at first.  The first 5 or so miles were in the shade and I was fearing for the safety of my fingers and my ears.  But somehow we all made it through without injury.

Summit Hill just about killed me, but I got a button for conquering it!  But I was one of the walkers, I made it a small portion of the way up, but it's a looong and steeeep hill.  Malachi made it up in record speed I think, he and his dad actually rode all the way to the top.  Julie and I were the smart ones, haha.  Just walking up that hill was exhausting!

It was 15 miles total (the other options were 9 miles or 30 miles).  And it was alot of fun, and a perfect day for it.  But I'm so sleepy now.  I need my sunday sleep in time!  So I may try to take a nap now.  Hope you all have lovely weeks ahead!

Awesome.

Romo and the 'Boys played GREAT!

Yes we can win a game in December, all of you superstitious downers!

And yes we did beat the unbeaten Saints!

5-2!!

The 'Boys sure are looking better all of a sudden.  Something clicked and I'm liking it!  It's like they were each taking turns making touchdowns today.  Austin, Hurd, Williams, Barber, Crayton... Ya!!!!

4-2

I still love Tony Romo (and he did some great things in the game today), but is it so wrong to love Miles Austin too?

Go Cowboys!

Me and the Boys

It's that time of year again!  My dad, Malachi and I all went to the Cowboys last preseason game this year. 

 Always a good time to watch a bunch of 4th stringers that I've never heard of run around :)  But also a great time to get shots of the guys on the sidelines!

Favre was there, but obviously not playing.  But none of us could get over how much he looks like Jeremy from far away.

And in that picture, how giant he is.

We won the game!  And mostly thanks to this little guy, Jesse Holley.

I was already singing "Oh, oh, I look just like Jesse Holley..." on the car ride home, only to find out the next day that he had been cut.  What?!  Oh well, Felix is back, and Barber is still a beast, and Witten and Williams will get more action with T.O. gone.  And Romo and Jessica are splitsville, so this season is GOLD!
