Triatholon Daddy...

Cody has always wanted to run a Triatholon. It is one of the things on his "bucket list". This year he decided to sign up and train for a Sprint Triatholon. Basically, you have to swim 300 meters, bike 12 miles, and finish with a 5k run.

This last weekend Cody completed his first triatholon. We couldn't be prouder of him. He did an amazing job and had his family there cheering him on the entire way. It is so refreshing when you see the one you love complete a life goal. I have to admit I got pretty emotional walking up to watch him compete. I cheered so loudly that I can foresee me being "that mom" in the stands for our children. Nevertheless, we were glad that we could share in this day with Cody.

Terry, Kylene, Lauren and Ally and I were so proud of our "CodMan" In our books, he's always been super and we knew if he put his mind to it, as always, he would succeed. We were so excited to be there to support him, there's no way he couldn't hear all of us hollering!!- Lauren and Ally yelled their little hearts out for their Uncle Cody, "you can do it, Uncle Cody, we know you can!" And he did!!!!!!!!!
