Run, Jana, Run!

Yesterday, Jana ran a half-marathon in Sedona. That’s over 13 miles, for those of you counting from home! We went up the night before with our girls, and stayed at a hotel with Jana’s brother Spencer, his wife Stephanie, and their daughter Bailey. Steph and Jana both ran the race, while Spencer and I watched the kids. Jana wants me to run it with her next year. I’ll need to get back in shape first.

I have been working my new job at Phelps Dodge for almost 4 weeks now. It’s been a good change for me. I’ll write more about that later.

I’ve tried to post a couple family pictures taken after Grandma Kay’s funeral last month. We’ll see how those turn out – I may have to talk with Brian to actually find out how to get them on the site. Fun with multimedia!

Update: I just learned how to post pictures. Here’s a family photo taken after Grandma Kay’s funeral.

Our girls are growing up quickly. We bought them some bunk beds a couple weeks ago, and they’ve adjusted pretty well. Eliza is in the top bunk. She was very excited when we bought the beds, then a bit nervous at how high she was. Now she’s settled in nicely and sleeps well up there. (We have a guard rail so she’s safe). Anna has been more challenged in adjusting. I think most of that is due to her newfound freedom. She went from sleeping in a crib (actually a Pack-n-Play) to being in a bed, so now she can get out of bed by herself for the first time. She’s coming around though. And she sure is fun in the meantime.

Happy Valentine’s Day to all our loved ones out there!

Jana–

You’re amazing! 13 miles, that is a long ways. Congratulations. As always, you are such an inspiration to me in so many ways. Thank you!

Sean, hey haven’t spoken to you guys in a while. Good to hear that your new job is good and that Jana is in better shape than all the rest of us.

Love you guys!

Mikey and Ali

So happy that so many of my grandchildren are doing the Blogs. Keeps me in touch about how you are all doing.
Love to the Sean Elcock family
Hope to see pictures in the future.

Love, Grandma

Catie!

So good to hear from you! I hope all is well–it is fun to see pictures of Mary and David? Are you guys freezing? Have a great day! You are a wonderful friend!

Love,

Jana

wow jana,

You’re a superstar running like Forest Gump! We love your blog update–keep em coming!

Sean — here’s a blogging hint. People don’t read updates in the middle of a post from 10 months ago. Especially if there’s nothing to draw attention to it. Of course, in your case, since there’s 3 or 4 posts total, maybe people will see it. But I would suggest that you brag about your new-found talent of posting pictures in a more recent post, like maybe a new one? It doesn’t really matter what you write, people just want to see that there’s new stuff up on your cool website. I *am* disappointed, though, that you changed the subtitle from “You know it.”
