Redding with the Rich's

Last weekend we headed to Redding to meet up with our good friends, the Rich's. Being that they live in Santa Barbara, we usually only see them a couple of times a year so we jump at a chance to hang out with them and their two adorable kids.

Jackson and Samuel are a month apart and are showing more and more interest in each other and even exhibited a great-deal of sharing this trip. One would drive the Polaris while the other sat passenger. About every three minutes we would see two little bodies climbing over seats putting on their seat belts. Sylvie and I joked that this was quite scary to see the next generation Rich and Muir boys behind the wheel of a vehicle.

As we left the ranch party on Saturday night, Jackson told us "that was so much fun playing with Sammy."

Dad's 24 Hour Race

On May 1st and 2nd Pete and his friend Jamie took part in a 24 hour mountain bike race in Cool, CA which is about 30 minutes east of Sacramento. The race was sponsored by Biorhythm Race and 100% of the money raised benefited Livestrong Cancer Research. Each lap was approximately 11.4 miles and their goal was to ride 6 laps each for a total of 12 and hope for some sleep sometime in that 24 hour period.

They were exhausted, but did sleep for a few hours and finished the race is 23 hours, 58 min, 34 seconds.......what an accomplishment!




Good luck kiss!
