Los Locos Du Weekend

Go go go! That has been the weekend. From squeezing in some training, to volunteering, to margaritas, to catching up on work...it never ends! I am so happy I love my friends that are routinely a part of my on-the-go weekend. I actually don't like to be busy, but when friends are involved, I don't seem to mind. :)

This weekend was our annual Los Locos Duathlon to start off the 2012 race year here in Memphis. Our team stays super busy getting the course ready and then helping to run the race. It was a lot of fun, and I always LOVE seeing beginners out there on the course. I mean, I get teary-eyed when I watch them work to reach that finish line. It is so awesome.
Contrary to what my teammates think, I do actually work some of the race and I don't just talk and socialize the whole time. Proof above: I worked in the transition area and helped record everyone in and out of transition.

I meant to wear my visor, and I completely forgot. I also forgot to re-do the part in my hair so it didn't show my nice scar across my head (one of those soccer injuries where I am sure I needed stitches and decided to not get them). I saw myself in the mirror later that day and was horrified. Oops! So every picture is not-so-cute. Laura is looking really cute and fit, though, so we will post this picture anyway. :)
Great team-great athletes- great people.

I used to teach special education at a school that used positive rewards for good behavior. We called it "caught being good." So, when a kid just did the right thing, showed love to their neighbor, etc...they were caught being good and rewarded. Cayenne is always "caught being good" with Breesy.
And then today, Roo was "caught being good" too. Isn't this just the cutest thing ever????

You won't make it long in our house if you can't handle small spaces, chaos, and snuggles. :)
