thanks dude

Mommy was a bit scared to go by herself, so Anne Lawson stepped up and comforted her on their ride on "Dude", one of the camels at the Bham Zoo.

the wounded princess

While her leg may (or may not) be broken, Holland's spirit is as lively as ever.

Her injury is not even keeping her from her kitchen duties.

Doc (Libby and Wayne's new pup) did what he could to keep Holland in a good mood.

just before the fall

Holland enjoyed her last few treats just before falling off the bed and hurting her leg.  The orthopedic doctor could not definitively see a break, but assumed the worst and put a cast on leg, which she gets to wear for at least two weeks.

egg collecting

Easter Egg hunting at Great Grandmother's house brought in quite a bounty of treats.

hippity hoppity easter's on its way

back to the beach

Anne Lawson and Wells did not mind joining Daddy in the chilly surf.

It's a good thing we had Uncle Nick to show Wells how to fly a kite.  Daddy did not have so much success.

beach babes

The sun was bright, but the wind kept the girls from showing too much skin on our recent beach trip.

a great day on the plains

At the last minute, we decided Sunday was a great day for a quick trip to Auburn to watch the Tigers play a little basketball.




Wells could hardly wait to see Aubie.


Climbing up and down steps was enough entertainment for the girls.

Thanks to everyone who came out to support Angel in the Race on Sunday. And thanks to those who have donated to the Bell Center to help preserve Lawson's memory...and if you have not given yet, please consider doing so by the end of this week (Feb 16).

This is Hank's third year to run and raise money in Lawson's memory. We appreciate his hard work and dedication. It was Hank that inspired Angel to run.

Melissa will always have a special place in our hearts, and it was a tremendous honor for her to join the cause and run on behalf of Lawson. Her son, Garrett (pictured), is the same age as Lawson would be. Melissa was one of the ICU nurses that would have been caring for Lawson after his heart surgery and has become a dear friend.

go mommy go!

Anne Lawson did a great job of cheering for mommy

all down hill from here

Angel is still fresh at mile 10. She kicked it into gear the last 3 miles and finished the half-marathon in 1:59:09.
As the kid's like to say "Mommy run fast".

perfect day

wipeout

The trouble started at the top of the hill...

and you may have guessed where things went from there...

Wayne and Wells managed to avoid the crash, but Anne Lawson and Mommy wiped out pretty hard. Everyone was fine, just a little snowy/muddy.

Anne Lawson did not cry, but promptly stated "Mommy, snow mouth, out".

whoosh

Wells was not about to loosen his grip after seeing Mommy crash with A.L.

just enough

It was not quite the 1-3 inches promised by the weatherman, but the dusting we got on Saturday was just enough to make Caldwell Park sleddable.
