Vancouver Sun Run

I ran in the 2008 Vancouver Sun Run this Sunday just gone for the 2nd year running (excuse the pun). This is the 2nd largest 10km race in North America and this year they set a new record for the number of participants, with 59,179 people taking part. It was also the coldest morning in the history of the run (this it's 24th year) and when the starter's gun went off it was about only 2-3 degrees. I was a little disappointed with my time which was slower than last year, although in thinking about it I shouldn't have been surprised, given the prime physical shape I was in a year ago in readiness for the wedding!! ;-)

Our New Car

Well not ours but Baby Thomas'!!

Talk about travelling in style! Our son will without a doubt be the coolest kid on the block getting around in this beast.

Baby Shower - Thank You!

My Sister and Mum threw Cammie and I a fantastic Baby Shower while we were in town. I must admit it was a first for me......and I would guess a couple of the boys too. To cope with the shock, beer was required at 9:30am, even Kiera needed one. I'd have to say that Sime was the most helpful, volunteering to change and clean all the diapers.

Thank you so much to everyone for coming and for all of your generous gifts. It really meant a lot to celebrate with you all. A special thanks to Sarah and Mum for organising!!

Home Sweet Home.....

It's had been almost 2 years since I had been home and nearly 3 since Cammie last graced Australia's shores.......as you can imagine time was at a premium for the 10 days we were there.
First it was time to meet the newest Thomas'. Kate and Sophie made their first trip to Australia all the way from London. We also had a fantastic afternoon catching up with all the boys....and meeting little Kiera for the first time! We were even able to fit in some time for a little training for Cammie!! She actually did a really good job....and she loved every minute of it!!

It was really great to catch up with everyone. See you all next March!
