Impact a Hero 5K
Posted on | June 7, 2010 | No Comments
Over the weekend, I ran/walked a 5K! I have bad feet and haven’t walked in a while let alone run. My sister who has been working out a lot asked me to do the 5K with her. I had just gotten my new orthotics and thought I would try it since I had walked 4 times this week before for about an hour.
The Impact a Hero 5K took place in Sugarland, Texas. Impact A Hero is a non-partisan 501(c) (3) organization, created to provide a simple mechanism for individuals and corporations to help provide emotional and financial support for our severely wounded /disabled War on Terror veterans and their families. Donations are tax-deductible.
We wanted our nephew Jacob to run but he decided against it. We did get Mason and our other nephew Jordan to run the kids 1K!
She signed us up at “We Run for Torillas!”
It took me 42 minutes and I listened to the Pixes the whole time! Thanks Joey Santiago! Note: They are touring again and passing through Houston and Austin, among other cities! I already bought my tickets!
Mason and Jordan had a bit of rivalry going on. Each thought they were going to win. Mason out grew his running shoes. I was busy Friday so I sent Corinna to get Mason a new pair of shoes but asked her for the wrong size. Race morning, they were too small and he had to wear is Vans.
Mason was a bit nervous and I was at the starting line with him but when the gun went off, he took off! Lightning fast! I was worried he would stop and turn around and realize I wasn’t right there with him.
I waited for the turn around and when I saw this little pair of Vans from a far, I knew it was my little Mason! I thought he was going to stop when he saw me so I ran with him in to the finish line!
I was soo proud of him! But all he could talk about was, “I beat Jordan! I beat Jordan!”
Jordan came in a few minutes after but he did fantastic as well!
All and all, it was a great morning with family, fun and exercise!

It’s very rare that I get a photo with all my kids. It’s very rare that I get even a photo with one of my kids, because I’m usually the one taking the photos in the family.
I LOVE this PHOTO! I LOVE my KIDS!
Jack is new to the bunch and we all just adore him. He’s a very easy baby. He’s ‘over coked’ so that may have something to do with it. He’s 7 months now and already has 7 teeth and knows how to use them ;)
Mason is preparing for Kindergarten and turning 5 later this month. He is learning soo much at school including writing, math and some reading. He is becoming so helpful around the house, offering to help with dishes and laundry. He LOVES dinosaurs right now and always ask to be read his dinosaur books. He also watches the Science Channel a lot and says “Dinosuars are his kind of science”. Smart kid! Maybe he’ll be a scientist like his uncle or grandfather.
Danielle is strong willed, smart, beautiful and I am so proud of her. She completed High School early and will celebrate commencements at Reliant Stadium in early June. She has been doing a lot of babysitting and also is a nanny for a particular family. She loves being around kids and hopes to become a teacher. Of course the teen years can be rocky, but Danielle is growing past that and I love watching her grow and progress.
Matt is taking the photo so he’s not in it. Matt is Matt. He’s great as long as he has his boys!
Very good day today! Very thankful!
