Ian's New Trick

Ian has been able to roll over to his stomach for a couple weeks now. But every time he would do it, he'd last for a minute and then start whining because he couldn't roll back over. Well, today he finally did it! He rolled onto his tummy and then back to his back. This was a bittersweet moment, seeing Ian do something new but knowing that he is growing up so fast. He'll soon be crawling...then walking...then asking to borrow the car.

Take a look:

My First Triathlon

David, my sister-in-law's husband finally convinced me to do a triathlon with him. He has done 5 or 6 of them. When Jaren found out I was doing one He got excited and decided to join us. We all had a lot of fun. There is something unique about swimming, riding and running all in one race. It is great doing this kind of stuff with family.
This summer I was able to ride with Jason and that was a highlight of my summer. Jason and I raced in separate races one evening and I finished my first road race.
Well, here are some pictures of my first triathlon... it was the best since Jaren and David did it too.

Because it is so cold here the triathlon was reversed. We ran, road, then swam in a warm pool to finish off. Does anyone else think I look kind of like the bullies that beat up "Daniel son" in karate kid after the Halloween dance?

It was so fun, a caveman, cavewoman, and dinosaur did it

I know you've all been holding your breath in suspense--what were the Fords for Halloween?? Here's the answer...

...Meet Oooga and Chaka, and their adorable pet dinosaur, Ianosaurus. They had a fun time at their ward Halloween party and chili cookoff.

 

They look fierce, but really they are just a normal American cave family.

 

Happy Halloween!
