My ? Birthday

Always nice to spend your birthday with family.

Thanks Kellie and Jess for the cute picutre and star.

Thanks Corbin for my cool camera. You thought

I took alot of pictures before!

Pretty flowers and balloons from Kendra

and Ryan, April and Emmet

Ryan and April, here's a close up of the beautiful flowers that

you had sent. I love them!

Happy Halloween

It's Halloween and that means a busy night at our house.
Nice to have Kellie, Jess and Conner up visiting. Missed
terribly Ryan, April and Emmet and Stephanie and Kritt.
Would of been lots of fun to of had Emmet and Conner dress
up together. Ryan told us that they hid from the trick or
treaters that night because candy is so expensive in
Grand Cayman! I made taco soup and then stay busy
the rest of the evening making my homemade doughnuts.
It has become a tradition for a long time now and although
it is alot of work, we all enjoy them. We ate some for
everyone that couldn't be there, so I hope that makes all
of you who missed Halloween here in Moses Lake feel better!!
Taylor loves Halloween so it was fun for her to have Conner
here to share it with her.

When looking at the Marthona pictures that Scott, Corbin
and Ryan Cornia ran 10/13/07 start at the bottom page of
Marathon pictures. It will make more sense that way. I'm
still learning how to do all this blog/computer stuff!!

Way to go budddy!!

More ensure!

Ryan "losing" his ensure and Corbin leaving him behind.

Sorry, Ryan! He usually "throws up" once during

a marathon. I just happen to be filming when he decided to

do it this time!

Circling the "getting closer" point.

A beautiful fall marathon
Checking on the men
Scott checking his "little buddy" to see his time and pace.Looking strong
Here he is actually around 20 miles into the marathon.

Checking to see if he needs some gatorade!

This guy dressed as a girl, actually ran quite well.

Scott beat him, but he actually beats Corbin and Ryan.

Scott looking good. He stayed with the men for

a couple of miles and then he pulled ahead for the

rest of the race

The "older" men

Waiting to give our runners their "ensure"!

They will really enjoy it in the nursing home!

Cheers with "ensure"

Scott's First Marathon

Scott decided to try his hand at marathon running after

watching his Dad do his Iron Man last June. He has

been training hard and the one that he, his Dad and

Corbin's training buddy, Ryan Cornia, chose was in

beautiful Leavenworth, WA. Leavenworth is about

100miles from Moses Lake up in the mountains and

it is beautiful, espcially in the Fall. The weather was perfect.

It's a smaller marthon, but good because I was able to

follow along in the car and get some great pictures. I'm

sure it wasn't annoying at all having us driving around, following them

as they were running 26.2 miles, but oh well.

These picutures were taken before the race started

and, as they were starting. I don't know if Scott was nervous,

but I was nervous for him. Typical Mom.
