Labor Day Holiday Weekend



We had a wonderful trip to the mountains for the long weekend! Here is Kelsey enjoying some ice cream outside the old fashioned soda shop.

Grandma and Grandpa gave Kelsey her birthday present early.....a brand new TRICYCLE! She started to get the hang of the pedals! Molly wanted to join in the fun, too!

Go Deacs!











We are getting ready to watch the first Wake Forest football game of the season. GO DEACS!

Kelsey has had strep throat this week but is feeling better tonight.











































She also wanted to take a picture with her special toys, including her centipede and frogs, and other squishy and stretchy friends.

Kelsey's New Classroom



















On Monday, August 25, Kelsey started in her new room, "Circus Tykes". She really likes her new teacher, Jennifer, who used to babysit Kelsey.

Kelsey is one of the big kids at the daycare now and gets to ride the elevator to her classroom! She also has to go downstairs to the cafeteria for snacks and lunch! She is very excited about all of this. These pictures were taken when she arrived in her new room on Monday.

Mommy's Triathlon













Today I completed the Ramblin' Rose Triathlon, a women's sprint distance triathlon. It was an exhilarating experience and I enjoyed every minute of the race!!!! Kelsey, Daddy and Nana came down to cheer me on. I completed the whole race in 1 hour and 6 minutes and finished 127 out of about 400 participants.






Check out this finish line! Very inspiring! Doesn't it make you want to pick up the pace?




This video shows me crossing the finish line (I am the second person shown). What a great feeling!




Here is a photo of the group of women I trained with in the weeks leading up to the race through a training program with a local running store.

The Thackers are online!




After seeing the Hannah Clan online, we were inspired to create a blog for the Thackers and so here we are! With all the busy days and nights, we will try to keep up..... here is our update for now.

We are all doing well and enjoying a beautiful summer! We have enjoyed several trips to the beach and mountains and have had many fun times with family and friends!





Mommy is training for a sprint distance triathlon on August 24th! Wish her luck to KICK BUTT! Daddy is excelling at work and enjoying much golf this summer! The new Softball season started this Monday! Go BSP!



Fall is coming soon and our little sweetie is moving up to her new classroom on August 25 and will be a "Circus Tyke"!




Hard to believe that summer is almost over, but we have made some great memories this summer!




Coming up we still have a lot to look forward to, including... going to see John Mayer in concert next week! Then a trip back to the mountains Labor Day weekend! Then football season!

GO DEACS!







Lots of love to all! XOXO The Thackers

Here are some videos from earlier this summer that we wanted to share! Enjoy!
