DANETTE KUJAT SWANN

Here are your stats for this race:

250M Swim: 10:47

Transition #1: 4:12

7 MI Bike: 26:40:00

Transition #2: 1:52

2 MI Run: 24:44:00

Total Time: 1:08:13

My goal for next year: under an hour!

Won't be too hard if I cut some time off transitions (and my swim!)

Here we are for our water start. The yellow caps went out first (I think).

I was a neon green cap - there were 100+ of us!

The bad transition (time wise)...

The final leg...

On to the finish line!

The first week of soccer!!!

It's been a busy week this week! Webb began his career as a soccer player. The team as a whole has some work to do! If we kept score, which luckily our league doesn't start doing until the 7 y.o. league, we'd have been hanging our heads low! :( But, the kids seemed to have fun out on the field! Webb was so excited when he got to kick the ball, he'd come over and high five one of us EVERY time! I'd have to remind him to go back after the ball! Silly boy! If only we all had his enthusiasm about things!!

Pre-game warm ups...

Emerson could care less...she's got Legos!

We are the Wolfpack and Webb is proudly showing us his attempt at the Wolfpack sign! (Looks more like hang loose, dude!)

Webb has a solid leg for kicking...just wish he would kick left-footed!

Webb and Megan - lining up at midfield - see the concentration?Webb - pouting he didn't get a "turn" to kick the ball!Owen doing the Wolfpack howl! Ready for next week!!

Lukas' awesome 3rd birthday!

Happy Birthday, Lukas!She is "painting" her leg!

Emerson gets a hand from "Aunt" Betsy...

Kisses!

Lukas loves him some Emerson! We'll have to watch those two!

Mr. Erik takes Carter down the slide!

CHEESE!

The Cheetos Brothers...distant cousins of the Blues Brothers

Ms. Kelli takes Webb for a ride~
Looks like a conspiracy!

Webb is FOUR!!!

We held Webb's fourth birthday party at the Museum of Natural Sciences in downtown Raleigh. We got to touch a chinchilla, a bird and a ferret. They also had a VERY large toad that we couldn't touch due to salmonella or some other funky thing! It was a lot of fun!

Mr. Eric helps Carter & Lukas put their texture on their animals!

Caroline & Cam investigate the box turtle!

Webb grows a frog tongue!

Webb meets the bunny!
Ready, set, blow!

Huff & puff!

Thanks to all my friends for coming to hang out with me!

Atlantic Beach 2010

Will sped off to the beach for almost a week-long vacation with his father and sister and her family, leaving me alone. As much as I'd like to say I got a lot accomplished, I fell short of my monstrous list of "to-do's". Ah well...

Webb and Aunt Marie discuss the finer points of sand...

Caroline has dug herself a hole...hope she can work her way out of it

Reminds me of soldiers going off to battle

always a ham in the crowd!

Caroline and daddy Hayne take a stroll

Emerson is not sure whether she wants the water to touch her piggies...
Focusing on the task at hand

The weather was perfect for kite flying...windy as all get-out!

Atlanta for 4th of July!

We were home from the beach for four days and then hit the road for ATL for the 4th of July holiday with the The Compton Cousins! We hope they like us because we just spent the past week with them at the beach!

Our first stop was at the Georgia Aquarium on Friday. Get there early or suffer the crowds later!

Here is "Jaques" Cousteau...(sorry, couldn't resist!)

Checking out the albino alligator Having a serious discussion regarding whose turn it is to push the elevator button

Silly faces!Webb missed the cue to have a smiley face...Getting refreshed at Bruesters Ice Cream...Emerson decided that Moose's cage was a good place to hang out. Good thing Moose didn't mind sharing!The other mini cousins came over for some chillin' at the pool time!

Webb decided to add goggles and do the slide!

Emerson got brave and jumped from the side!

The boy likes to relax in a float!

I can't decide which of the next two looks like a better beer commercial?

Silly face mini-cousin faces!

(Jack - 6, Emerson -2, Ellie - 6, Sullivan - 3, Webb - almost 4, and Whitaker - 6)The 2010 mini cousin photo!Mr. Chris & Emerson debate the finer qualities of chalk...

All that swimming works up an appetite!

YAY FOR THE 4th OF JULY!!They are all very excited about the fireworks being lit!Then, very pensive watching the fireworks beign litEmerson's first sparkler...Webb was a pro with his sparkler!Oooh, Aahhh - they're pretty!The place to be on the 4th - Beth's lap!We reclaimed our kids from Beth's lap to get this family pic w/ one-eyed Emerson!
