My Man


I often write about my precious kiddos, whom I love dearly...but I was sitting here thinking about what an amazing husband I have! He is so gifted, sweet, talented, an amazing father, and a great friend! I truly am so blessed.....
I am SO PROUD of him for many reasons but today I am proud of his determination and drive. Tomorrow he is riding in his first CENTURY (111 mile ride)! It is called the ULCER ride and it goes all the way around Utah Lake. 4 months ago he fell head over heels in LOVE with road biking. He is following in his father's footsteps! He takes it very seriously and has been training religiously for this particular event. I am so glad that he has found something that he is so passionate about. He has lost 30 pounds since he started biking and he feels better then he has felt in years. He is an inspiration to me and I just wanted him to know how much I LOVE HIM!!!!
Go DADDY Go!!!!!

Wow- that's impressive. Tell him to send a little of his "drive" and a dash of "determination" over may way...the only time my heart rate is up these days is if I have to run to find the phone lost in the house somewhere...

That is awesome! I wish we lived closer to you guys! I'm sure Joe would love cycling with him!

A century is a great feat! Staci, I have to hand it to you too! I know what it takes to willingly give your husband the time to train for a century. It's not always easy!

Greatjob Nate!
