Summer is officially here..according to the temperatures!

Yup, its summer time and its hotter than hell! Yesterday it was 104 and today we hit 108! The best way to stay cool is simple, get wet and stay wet. We spent three days this weekend in a $10 pool in the front yard. Great times! Simple times of course, but who really cares as long as the kids are having fun!

Derek raced in Benicia Saturday morning, a hard race, and finished somewhere around 9-13th place, awaiting official posted results! Melis attended a Pampered Chef Party and hit the gym on Sunday!

We're excited for the next weekend, a popular race in Davis in the morning and party in the afternoon for the 4th of July!

And yes, Brasil won today in South Africa against some USA team, 3-2...puta merda, essa foi foda!

Forget the carbon frames, wheels!

BUSTED! So you thought I had some fancy dancy bike with the latest technology; carbon this, carbon that, blah blah blah! We'll...here is the newest and latest and for sure the fastest thing since a fed elephant in the feeding season!

Lance Comes to Nevada City

What a great Father's Day this past Sunday! had a great breakfast at home with Melis, Brady and Drew, then headed up to Nevada City for the afternoon!

Drew & The Bike

This girl gets a bike and is ready to kick some booty! Notice her roadie Rio Strada hat underneath her helmet! What a lil stud she is, and she's only "FoH!"

Been to Old Navy recently?

Have you been to Old Navy recently and seen the new manequins?

Drew Turns 4 Today!

Four years ago things seemed really quiet in the house! Today, we woke up at 6AM wanting milk, as we do every morning! Yup, the lil baby girl is now 4.."FOH" as she says! She then went out in the living room and found her new bike! A Disney Princess bike which actually fits her! As you can see she's all smiles! The other picture was last Sunday and its a great wallpaper for you computer, so download it and get it up there!

Its the start of Drew's Birthday Week

Crazy week is now behind us! Derek ended his school obligations this past week and he is now in full on vacation mode! Play time with the family and bike! This weekend we began Drew's Birthday celebration with her friends party at The Bounce Spot in West Sacramento. Sunday morning we went running(look at Drew's form in the running picture! Cracks us up! What a stud!) along a lil lake in the area and found a cute turtle, then later in the day we went to the Rivercats baseball game. There we had hot dogs, soda, ice cream...Derek & Melissa had a beer of course!
Lots more planned for the week of course! Weekends are the best around here!

Another sweet weekend!

I think we live for weekends! Friday we had our usual dump day routine, then we had a family day and went to the movie theater and watched "Up," the latest Pixar Movie, highly recommend it by the way! Then we had lunch at Rubio's, yummy!!! We also went camping in West Sacto! You figure it out! Saturday was a busy day with parties, getting new wheels on the bike, Costco and finally and date night! Thanks Riley! Sunday we chilled at the house and Derek went on a 42 miler. BBQ'd salmon for dinner! Another awesome weekend!

Is this why we have kids?

Yes, Derek really does go racing..not fishing!

This is proof that I actually do race! Thanks to my teammate Jim Elder, I now have proof! Thats my good 'ol friend Kenny Lane in front. I used him as my lead out stud, all was worked out until the second to last turn when a dumbass decided to push me out and I ended up on a sidewalk at 30mph, then BMX'd(bunny hop'd) my way back into the race to end up at 18th...dang curb!
