2008...

Was one hell of a year! The highlight of the year came late with the birth of my nephew Quinn. I love that my family is getting bigger by the months and I'm very thankful that everyone is healthy and a car trip away. A close second would be my cycling season capped off with numerous wins and a long time goal to race with the fastest in CO. Another close second is my dear friend and gchat buddy Jessica who is one of the kindest and most sincere people I have ever met. And truthfully who would have thought we would be friends...not me. Jessica said it perfectly one day, "sometimes I think that when you find real and true people in life you don't let them go; they are too rare." Well if you ever get the chance to meet Jessica don't let go because she's a pretty cool chica.

I also fell really hard this year. The pain, confusion and frustration became the fuel of success in cycling. I'd like to say I experienced true love but can it really be true love if in the end all fails? I don't know but what I do know is there's someone for everyone. We live and learn right?!

So what can I look forward to in 2009? Well another niece or nephew come June. Hopefully some good results for my new team HART. Maybe a couple wins for Luke and Cole who enjoy racing with me. Watching little Makenna be the cute big little sister that she'll be in June. Hopefully a home owner but we'll see. In the next few days I'll set a side some 'me time' and write down some goals for 2009 and who knows maybe I'll share them with you. But for right now I'm just going to keep PEdaLinG ThRougH LIfe. Have a Happy New Year! Ciao.

Family Holiday Photos Part II

Pics from the Denver Chophouse celebrating Christine's birthday. The boys had a great time trying to drain my bank account by eating as much as they possibly could. Well lets just say they had a lot to eat.

FYI: The photo of the empty seat you might question. The waitress told us Lebron James sat at this table and in that chair last night for dinner. So I took a photo.

Papa and Popo in town

That what the little ones call my dad and step mom who are in town for an early X-mas celebration. Did a sleigh ride party yesterday at my sis's place and now heading to my brother's place for a second round of holiday eating. Time to bust out the elastic pants!

Touching the Void...

is one intense documentary film. Talk about life throwing you curve balls. An amazing survival story of two climbers with a lot of luck who make life decisions and quick actions to live to tell about it. Wow!
