Company Picnic Fun

Running for Leightyn

This past Saturday, Landen ran the "Survivor's Challenge" 5k. Mylea and I headed out to help cheer him. on. This was the biggest race we have been to and there were plenty of vendors and activities to keep Mylea entertained during the race.

Mylea massaged Daddy's back hoping to warm him up.

Mr. Peanut was there handing out peanuts. Mylea wanted to take lots and lots of pictures with him.

Before the race, Mylea made Daddy a sign to cheer him on.

Woody came out to help Mylea cheer for Daddy.

One vendor brought their baby poodle out to the race. I don't know who was more in love... Mylea or the poodle. This poodle was so much fun to play with!

Time for the race!

While waiting for Daddy to finish, Mylea got a pumpkin painted on her face.

One of the sponsors gave Mylea a special medal for being a great cheerleader for her daddy. She couldn't wait to tell Daddy what all she did during his race.

Adventures With Stitch

A couple of nights ago, we decided to get Stitch out of his box and let him get some exercise. We really didn't think he would go far or do much, but we were wrong! This little turtle is fast! Landen suggested entering Stitch in some turtle races.

Mylea wanted to video Stitch. It wasn't but a few minutes before Stitch was going fast in the opposite direction.

He made his way under the couch. Director Mylea filmed it all....and some of the carpet.

While filming Stitch, Mylea decided to get up close with her face. She had a blast watching herself film herself!

Stictch was on a mission to find new territory.

Another Addition To The Family

Yesterday, when I picked up Mylea from Grandad and Jo's house, I was introduced to a new addition to our family. Mylea told me to close my eyes and come look on the table. When I got to open my eyes, I was introduced to Stitch the Turtle. Mylea said that her and Big Toot were headed to the gas station and they "saw a rock in the road. They thought it was a rock until Big Toot got out and the rock moved. So it wasn't really a rock, but a turtle!". It was the cutest thing to hear Mylea's version of how they found Stitch.

When we got home, Mylea just wanted to sit on the table and look at Stitch.

She finally got brave enough to touch the shell. This morning I walked in the kitchen and Mylea was carrying Stitch around.......upside down! We had to set up a few rules on when and how to hold Stitch.

Mylea just sits and talks to Stitch. She thinks his shell is funny looking.
