The Family

My sister and her husband are planning their future. (So Lee has this look on his face because he knows that I'm taking a picture of him and he doesn't like photos, and Emma is smiling because she thinks it's funny how I like to torture him.)


Hudson is always smiling.


Jonathan, deep in thought about potato bugs and where Thomas the Tank engine is going to go next.

Diffusing

So there's this contraption that a person puts on a hair dryer and apparently when you use this diffuser thingie it helps make your hair curly. Rob decided late last night that he wanted to "diffuse" his hair. He really wanted to look like Heath Ledger. I don't know why anyone would want to look like someone who is named after a candybar.



First you have to have wet hair.



Then you need a professional like Emily to diffuse.


"I want to look like Heath Ledger!"


To fully become like Heath Ledger you then need do the dance that he did in "A Knight's Tale."

Running

I've recently taken up running again. Well, so in High School I ran track. Mile, 800m and sprint hurdles. However, I developed a bad case of shin splints so by my Junior year I switched to swimming which worked out a lot better. I missed running. So, my friend Laura said, "hey I'm doing the Angel Island Run." Well it's an 8k (~5 miles). No big deal right? The first 2 miles were up hill. That was hard. Coming down the next 3 miles weren't so bad. I ran faster than I normally would have because I was running away from an old man who was hawking lugis every 8 secs. and it made me want to throw up from the sound. I think at one point "ew gross" might have spilled from my lips. So, the faster I would run.

Jared ran the 25k. He actually ran more than he was supposed to because he took a wrong turn, but of course he came in first. "Yeah, I really haven't been running much lately, just like 10 miles or so at the most," is what Jared has to say.

Before

See how happy we are in Tiburon, freezing, waiting for the ferry. Me, Jared, Kristine, Laura, and Steve.

Way to go guys

Hooray for the end!



This photo wasn't staged or anything.




"She'll be comin' around the mountain when she comes."


"Ah man, someone ate all the gummy bears."

Just waitin' for the ferry

Stretch

After the run we decided to do tons of stretching so we wouldn't be too sore. (Apparently Steve is too good for stretching.)

7 bridges in the bay area

Then we got in the car and drove home across the Golden Gate Bridge in the fog.
