5ks, Half Marathons, and Doggies

       Wow it has been a while since I've posted, Boomer went to his new home 2 weeks ago (I think). His pop got surgery and as soon as he could leave the hospital they came straight over and picked him up. So now it's just Rush and Peaches, we are working on them getting along (as in peachy accepting Rush into the pack) She's still down about Kirby so we can't really foster/adopt as of right now.

Rush was 10 pounds when Boomer left and now he's 17.9 pounds, he's gaining weight so fast and just growing bigger and bigger. 

       In other news, we ran the Freedom Run 5k in Provo on the fourth of July, I don't know why I have such a hard time on that one, we did it last year and I just get so dehydrated running it! This year is was more humid than usual, but I still got a best time so I can't really complain. Scott, my one sister, one brother, Melanie (sisters friend), Ma, Pa, and I ran the 5k, and my other 2 brothers, 2 sister-in-laws, and the kids ran the 1 mile run/walk.

       So those American bulldog puppies we had about 4 weeks ago, we got them back for like 5 hours and had them go to different fosters since we were going out of town and we REALLY didn't want to take care of SIX puppies and a MOM. 5 were enough for one summer.

Just a little updated picture of Milhouse and Bart.

       That next weekend I went to Wyoming with some of my family to run the Star Valley half marathon. It was a hard but awesome run, since it was in a little town and all the profit went to them, all the townspeople sat outside their house and cheered for us with posters, air horns, ukelele, and squirt bottles. It seemed like everyone knew each other, it was a great experience and I wouldn't mind doing that one again.

       As most know, this was Rush's first trip in the motorhome with us, and he handled it like a champ. Only a couple accidents (once a day...) but he tried to let us know when he needed to go out. I believe he loved it, there were three other dogs with us -- Peachy, Marlene, and Rufus.

Rush gets to smell and the wonderful things in Wyoming.
