Racing and Relaxing

Busy week or so!   An in DEW time summary.

Sunday, June 24:  Al competed in his second sprint triathlon of the season and finished 58th overall.  I think he was a little disappointed in his run time, but he still did a great job.  I was too busy trying to maneuver a double stroller around the race course so that I wouldn't miss him which means, no pictures.  Sorry.

But, that afternoon I managed to get a few pictures of Emerson's first trip to the pool:


It was also the family's first trip to the new pool since moving.  It's nice to be able to walk to the pool.  Ella refers to it as "my pool":



Saturday, June 30:  The entire Dew clan put on race gear and headed for the Freedom Run 5k in Wake Forest.  Al pushed both girls and I just tried to survive in the terrible heat.  The race leaders made a wrong turn which actually caused the race to be 3.25 instead of 3.1 and that definitely made a difference!!!  Ella is happy to report that she beat Mommy with a time of 26:40 (Al and Emerson got the same time too).  I finished in 29:30.  In that heat, those were pretty good times.




Pre-Race.

And then the suffering began,









(Told you I was just trying to survive!)  :)

Wednesday, July 4th:  Happy Fourth of July! The Dew family headed to the community pool for the children's parade.  Ella decorated her motorcycle with red, white and blue balloons and flags. 




Ella liked the parade but was much more interested in this:


Ice Cream!!!

Happy Fourth of July, everyone!
