Palmdale 10K

Some time ago I set a goal to run a 10K race and then eventually a half marathon. On November 8, I finished a local 10K in 59:25. It was a blast being out there running on the street and the feeling of finishing was great. I signed up for the SLC Half Marathon in April of next year, so I am currently getting ready for that.

The kid in the picture is one of my scouts who did the race as well. He finished well ahead of me and came back and ran the last 1/4 mile with me.

Halloween - 2008

Trick-or-Treated in Irvine. Kids had a blast.

Landon was a caveman or tarzan, depending on who you talk to. Skye was the only Hannah Montana in the US, I am sure!!! Halloween was cool this year........

Disneyland on Halloween.....

Went to Disneyland on Halloween. We had a great time. The kids were exhausted on the way home and they all fell asleep with their heads leaning in the same direction. They were getting geared up for a little trick-or-treating in Irvine.

Meet Heather........

Darren and I went on a Yes on 8 sign event today in Irvine. We were standing at a major intersection near a shopping mall with about 250 other Yes on 8 people and a handful of No on 8 people, who i am sure felt out of place.

This blonde young lady drove by honking and yelling YES ON 8. Next thing we knew, she came up behind us with a Yes on 8 sign and asked if she could join in. We of course put her to work holding a sign. At this point, she was dressed normally.

Then, she gets this bright idea to go put on her "Devil Hooker" Halloween costume that she wore last night to show all the gay guys driving by "what they're missing". We of course didn't encourage her, but she was gone before we knew it. Next thing we know, she is walking down the street, all garbed up in her Halloween costume, holding her Yes on 8 sign. It was quite the sight to see her amongst a huge group of Mormons!!

Yes, she got a lot of honks.......(you should have seen the front of the costume).......
