Jordan collage

We love our little boy Jordan!!!

Here is a fun collage of him at different ages. We feel so blessed every day to be his parents and to help and watch him grow and learn. What a bright light he is in our lives. He's our little one. xoxo

The Dirty Dash!

On September 17th "Team Super Cool" ran the Dirty Dash!

(left to right) Whitney Banner, Kevin Banner, Preston, Jordan, Hillary, Bart, Ryan Frandsen, and Charlie. It was by far the funnest race I have ever participated in! We had obstacles to pass through/over, team racing fun of helping and hindering each other, mud and water everywhere, and all of that combined made for an amazing race.

The Murray Team!!!

We all wore tie dye... even Jordan. Maybe someday we'll be able to run races with Jordan. What fun that would be!

Me with two of my awesome bros. Charlie and Bart were excited to join the team and run this muddy race. I love my crazy brothers. Plus, don't they look so stylish in their tie dye?

Charlie in all his tie dye glory! Check out those legs!

Here we are approaching the last obstacle before the finish line. What a fun muddy mess.

Splish splash

Here's Preston taking down Charlie. What fun times!

Almost made it...

The finish... Hurray!

We ran the muddiest race we've ever ran in our lives and we loved it!!! What a fun experience to be crazy, messy, ridiculous, and to feel cool about it. Well done "Team Super Cool!"

Aqua Tri

When most people go to Seven Peaks they go for a fun playful time in the water. When Preston goes to Seven Peaks he goes for an intense Aqua Triathlon Sprint. To each their own...

Preston and his good friend Kevin participated in a triathlon on September 3rd. Here is a picture of these buff guys before the race. Do they look ready or what?

Here is Whitney (Kevin's wife), myself, and Jordan being the cheerleaders for our crazy guys.

It was an early morning race so Jordan and I were cuddled up close to stay warm. Super cute huh... the only way I got Jordan to not squirm away was by giving him a bottle. Food is the way to any guys heart, not matter the size.

Here is Preston transitioning from biking and going to swimming. This particular tri was arranged differently. It went: run, bike, swim. In most tri races the run and swim are reversed. But since the athletes were swimming in a pool and were fairly easy to keep track of, so the swim was last for this race.

Here is Preston sprinting to the finish line after the swim. He wanted so bad to beat those two guys... and he did it by a second! Woohoo!

Preston right after the race... deep breaths...

Preston did a great job and got third in his age group! Way to go sweetie. Here is Jordan wearing his Daddy's medal. Fun end of summer times.
