Benbrook 5K

A few weekends ago I ran in a small 5K race and I placed 1st in my age group!!! I was also the 5th Female overall. I got this medal as proof! It definitely wasn't my fastest time ever, but I've been making slow improvements to my running since I've had Cody. The benefit to running in a small race is even though I didn't run as well as I wanted to, I still felt so good about it cuz I got FIRST!! Woot Woot!

About Us

Tyler and I have been married since May 2008. He loves to talk, I love to listen. He's moved around all his life, I've lived in the same town all my life. He's tall and skinny, I'm short and...? He has blue eyes, I have brown eyes. He likes making breakfast, I like making dinner. He likes to wait to eat dessert after a meal, I like to eat dessert right away after a meal. We are opposites on many levels but when it comes to what's most important we are the same. I couldn't have found a more perfect match for me.

Austin - 6.5 years old

Austin is a bouncy, random, loud, crazy kid! He brings so much energy to the room that you will definitely know he is present. He loves to make everyone happy and will get along with any age of child.

His favorite sports are frisbee, basketball, soccer, baseball, and riding his bike to the park. He also loves to practice his ninja moves and sing and dance to Mom's country music. In Primary he enjoys singing all of the songs, and thankfully he has his Mom's knack for hitting the right notes!

A's favorite toys right now are Lego's. His Spanish-immersion kindergarten class has helped him discover a love for reading, writing and coloring...in both languages! He'll spend time carefully crafting small books with plans, drawings and maps of something he wants to create.

Blake - 5 years old

Blake is really coming into his own. He still loves to follow Austin on all his adventures, but he's starting to lead out too. He is more soft spoken and sensitive and does not like wrestling as much as A & C.

He is a great story teller who also happens to ask some very interesting "what if?" questions. This leads him to invent cool games to play, like "hockey": played with a wiffle ball and two beat up plastic golf clubs, the object being to blast a shot past Austin and to the other side of the yard. Genius!

B loves Lego's, Lincoln Logs and building blocks, and he is a skilled puzzle maker. He's riding a two wheeler now, but still prefers power-sliding across the driveway on his BigWheel trike!

Blake likes to snuggle when reading books and says so many sweet things like, "I love you" and gives lots of hugs.

Cody - 2.5 year old

Cody is a whopper of a 2 year old! Big kid with a bigger smile and a biggest motor of the Hair brothers. He's a wrestler, a digger, a food processor and the most optimistic strike-out machine pee-wee baseball has ever seen. He talks a lot and has a great vocab for a little guy, so of course he asks lots of questions about everything!

He loves playing with his two older brothers, but in distinct ways, adapting to both of their interests and picking things up fast. He loves to make his presence known and can be very loud at times. Everyone comments on how happy he is and he definitely has been a great blessing as a 3rd child!
