Happy Birthday!

Well, it’s not REALLY a birthday.  Haley is 4 months old today, though.  As you can tell from the picture above, she only had one friend show up today.  I think she was expecting a cake, so she wasn’t too happy when she found out she was only getting milk.  She’s planning on going and seeing a bunch of friends, though, with Laura so her day should get better. 

We had a lot of fun over the 4th of July.  We had a dozen or so friends over in the afternoon and evening for a cookout and an all out battle over who is the best at washers.  Shep and I still hold the title for those interested.

 One thing that we’ve started doing lately is this Nike Challenge thing.  Basically, you have this gizmo that goes in your shoe and another one that plugs into an iPod.  It measures how far and fast you go.  When you connect your iPod, it automatically uploads it to the Nike website.  There you can see how you are doing as far as mileage, time and calories are concerned.  You can set goals for yourself and you can also challenge other people.  I’m in a challenge at work and it really pushes you to run more.  It even lets you put the results on your own website:

Pretty cool! This is one Laura and I are doing. If you want in, click “sign up for this challenge” and we’ll add you.
