We spent the past weekend in Boise, Id for the half triathlon Ironman race. Aaron and 2 of his brothers, Nick and Bob, were in it. For those of you who don't know, a half triathlon consists of a 1.2 mile swim in a lake (first), then a 56 mile bike ride (second), and last a 13.1 mile run. Unfortunately, it rained for much of the race but at least it wasn't too hot or cold even with the rain. All three brothers finished - which was quite an accomplishment in itself. GO Balsmeier Boys! I was really proud of Aaron. I was only able to go to the finish because of the yucky weather and the 2 kids, we spent most of the rest of the trip in a hotel room. Aaron was pretty beat afterwords, as you can imagine, but by the next morning he was already thinking of doing it again next year. Go figure! What is it about men and liking to get the crap kicked out of them. Anyway here are a couple of pictures.
Here is a cute picture I got of the kiddos in the tub together at the hotel.
Abigail was 11 months old on Monday (6/15/09). I usually take a picture of her every month to compare how much she is changing so here is her 11 month pic.
