Mind over matter

Freezing temperatures, rain, snow and hail couldn't keep Brett from finishing the Pikes Peak Ascent in 3 hours 38 minutes. He finished 257th (overall) and 219th (men).

Here is Brett with our friend Judd. Judd's wife Lisa and I drove up the mountain to retrieve our husbands but were stuck 13 miles up due to weather. After they plowed the road we headed back down and waited in Manitou Springs. Thankfully we ran into Brett shortly after (still shivering with blue lips) we arrived in Manitou. Some kind strangers had given him a ride down from the top.

When one is not enough..

Life with one amazing little boy was wonderful and life with two is even better! Brandon is a happy and healthy little guy. He's smiling now and loves it when you talk to him. Ryan is a great big brother. He loves to help burp the baby and he's quick to point out a "p-u stinky" diaper.
