Baker 2 Vegas

Chris recently ran a leg in the Baker 2 Vegas race! It is the biggest gathering of Law Enforcement in the world! It was a really fun experience and Chris did awesome! I was a very proud wife!
We were able to go without the kids, thanks mom and dad! We had a great time together, went to our favorite buffet at the Bellagio, and saw a movie! On our way home we stopped at the yummy Mad Greek and Chris got his sweet free drink and 20% discount for being a trucker. Yes folks, he really is a trucker, sometimes!!!!
Ahhh... This free diet coke is so good!

It's the life being a Truckers wife!






Being silly in the car! We were sitting and waiting for chris' leg to start in Pahruamp,NV for a very long time!!!





The Racer



And his Catcher



This is just minutes before Chris started his leg of the race. He was very prepared and ready!!! He ran the 10th leg for his team. His leg was 5.3 miles and he came in exactly on the dot for his projected time! Way to go babe!!!!! He did awesome!







Taking off


Finished!!!!


Awards ceremony. It was at the Hilton and there was something like 10,000 law enforcement officers and there families attending! Mr. T was the inspirational speaker. Funny!!!! Seems like a nice guy and was very thankful and gracious to all the officers. Funny, cause I just watched him in Rocky a few days before!
