We did it

About 6 months ago,

Rashelle invited me to start swimming with some of her friends who were training for a Triathlon. I didn't even know how to swim, but she assured me she would show me how. So I decided to hop on the bandwagon, and to train for the triathlon.

Last saturday, after months of preparation, sweat, tears, nerves....

We Did It!

This is before the race started
We got our super cool green shorts at DI, and named ourselves
{The Green Team}

Chris {the sweetest husband ever} surprised me with this cute shirt
he made for Dempsey, he was wearing one too.

And finally the Finish line

{The Lovely ladies we trained with}{My support team}
{The Green Support Team}
They all wore green
It was so nice to be coming down the road
and see this bunch of green people jumping up and down.
We love our family.
This truly was such an amazing experience for me. I never in a million years thought I could do something like this, and it felt so good to be able to accomplish it.
Afterwards, Chris and Dempsey took me out
to a celebratory dinner at Maddox's Steak house


Dempsey ate her first Shrimp
{and she loved it}

Then she sat by Chris and drank a bunch of water.Thanks my sweet little family, for your love and support. I'm a Lucky girl.
