Triathlon Weekend!

I competed in the Lake Stevens triathlon, a race involving a 1/4 mile swim, 10 mile bike ride and a 3.1 mile run. I finished in a time of 1 hour 37 min.

Steve also competed in his very first triathlon, Escape from the Rock, on Mercer Island. His race involved a 1/2 mile swim, 12 mile bike ride and a 2.5 mile run. He finished in 1 hr 23 min!

Our Trip to the Zoo!

Steve and I visited the Woodland Park zoo in Seattle today and met up with my co-workers/friends, Zach and his daughter, Isabel, and Amie and her daughter Livia. We had to start the day out with a carousel ride for the young ones, then we ventured off to see all the animals!


Kookaburra (Australian bird)

Sly as a fox!

One Tusk Elephant, hopefully, not due to poachers...

Coolest bird I've ever seen and I have no idea what it's called.

Da Bears!
