Trottin' on Turkey Day

So this post is kinda late. But here it is anyways.
I participated in my first 5K on Thanksgiving morning.
Dustin's Mom, Grandpa and I woke up early to run.
It was a chilly morning, in the 20's.
We had a good time though. I hope to do it again.

Here we are before the race.
"Do you like my hat?
No, I do not like your hat.
Goodbye!
Goodbye!"
-Dr. Suess-


Our view at the beginning.
Over 6000 children, adults and dogs came to run/walk.


The finish line. We made it!!!

Cool Art

CHECK THIS OUT!





A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Liu Bolin, a young Beijing-based artist, has become know as the “invisible man” due to his ability to use his own body as an art material. The 36-year-old chameleon paints on himself, appearing to blend in with the backdrop.
A perfectionist, Bolin often works on a single photograph for up to 10 hours, shocking many passers-by when he finally moves. Bolin said his inspiration came from feeling like a social outcast.
“Some people call me the invisible man, but for me it’s what is not seen in a picture which is really what tells the story,” Mr Bolin told the UK’s Telegraph. “I experienced the dark side of society, without social relations, and had a feeling that no one cared about me, I felt myself unnecessary in this world. Mr Liu says his work is also a protest against the government, who shut down his art studio in 2005.

Today...

... our little Diesel turned 1.

Though my family has owned dogs as long as I can remember, I've never made a big deal about a dog's birthday. Probably partly because I didn't know when any of our dogs were born. And honestly, I've always kinda laughed to myself at those people who celebrated this "special" day. But I've officially become one of "those people." :)
We celebrated by going to Andy's and getting ice cream.
She loves Andy's!

Happy Birthday, Diesel!!!

Our Weekend

Saturday.

We went to St. Louis to meet the
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

It was the 25th Anniversary of these "Heroes."

In fact, the mayor of St. Louis pronounced
June 6th, 2009 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Day. :)


Guess who's the big TMNT fan.
Sunday.

We went to the Springfield Cardinal's game.
It was "Bark in the Park Day."
Diesel fell asleep a few innings in.
Check out her cool bandana!

It was so much fun!
She was a hit! We made several friends!

Celebratin' in Style

This past Sunday was our 1 year anniversary.
Crazy how time flies!
We celebrated in style...by attending
a llama show. :)
haha! Yep, you heard right! A llama show.

We were walking out and we saw this HUGE llama.
We think it's part bear.
The show was in Sedalia, Missouri.
We traveled through some interesting towns to get there.
Here is a sight along the way that made us laugh.
Love the sign! :)
