We pulled the camp trailer over to Burley on Friday. We found the perfect spot, right there on the golf course, under a big tree, and close to the starting line. We saved a place right next to us for the Chapmans. They pulled in soon after.These three were in heaven with the sand traps! These three can be entertained wherever they are!
After dinner at Perkins we headed back to the trailers for "skit time!"Sydney had just been to Girl's camp, so that girl had all kinds of skits and songs to entertain us!
Just chillin!It's race day. Robert and Brent started their swims just after 7 a.m. Kim and
I fed the kids, got them dressed and headed for a spot on the course. I had my camera ready, but Robert blew by us so fast on the bike that I didn't get one pic.! After he sped by Kim and I and all our kids ran like crazy people as fast as we could to the exchange. You should have seen us, it was a site! We knew we had to be quick because last year we didn't make it. We arrived just in time. The kids high fived, Robert, and I snapped a pic. of him giving me the "Ah ya!" sign as he ran by me!

Next, we were off back to where we started to see Brent fly by us on his bike. Again, no pics! But, we got our exercise for the day sprinting, once again, with 7 kids, a stroller, cameras, snacks, drinks, etc. across the golf course to cheer Brent on for his run!
After that fiasco we had plenty of time to get to the finish line. We were happy spectators (Well some of us, others whined about the heat and being bored. Can you guess who that was? Avery? No! Really?!) Honestly though, it is a lot of fun to cheer people to the finish. We were hooting and hollering!Then we got really crazy loud when we saw this hunk of a man running down to the finish line. Go Bob!The kids ran up to meet him after his finish.Next came Brent! He even ran over to give his big fan base a slap on the hand. Wow! Check out those killer calf muscles!We are the champions........ Just kidding. I think they were just happy they were done! They should be happy. Each of them beat their time from last year. Great job, Robert and Brent. Thanks for giving us a reason to cheer! We are proud of you!We'll look forward to next year, maybe without the kids?!
