Burley



Just thought I would post this big group picture of everyone! Not the best lighting but it had the whole crew. Took me a couple weeks to finally get on my computer! I was so glad that Payt and I made the drive. It was so much fun seeing so much family! :)

Vaughn Baird Family Reunion 2010


Thanks to our Big Brother Russ
for heading up the first annual Vaughn Baird Reunion
You are the Best!!!!
We will have to use this pic of Nicole for now, cause any other would be in my camera. The one that I can't get pictures onto the computer currently. (Don't know how Russ got cut off the end of this pic, bummed about that)
Nicole finished at 2:39 - Oh ya, book it Nicole!
She came in 18th out of 82 in her division
Not bad for a little momma!!
Wish I could move like that!
I think she and Brad should go for division wins next year
As for Ashlee, Mitchell, Karina and Tiff - apparently you split too quick for me to get your picture. :(
Dustin is in the four manly men shot posted first..
Everyone did sooooo good!
Mitchell's swim was 23:08, and what a honey, he ran all the way with Karina.
That's what you call giving your wife your full support!
Dustin came in at 1:04 on the run
Ashlee's swim was 28:57
Tiff's bike time was 1:21
and Karina ran in at 1:14
The two teams finished at 2:58 and 3:07
I still can't believe we had so many participate. I love you all and am proud as a peacock!!
I think I will enter next year, so we can at least have one person in the 4 hour time frame.

Seth, another Non - Trainer
Pulled off a 3:05 finish
Oh to be young again!!
That's a proud daddy smile right there
(I just realized that these pics and entries are going to be backwards of the way I am entering them. Well it is my first time.....you might want to start at the bottom entry and work your way up, ha ha)

My main man Scott
I am so proud! Finished in 2:59 with no injury or death!
I think hitting the half century mark last year, has turned over a new life for Scott!
We can all rest easy now - LOL

Little brother Jeremy
that's an oxymoron, since our baby bro ended up surpassing us all in height and stature!
For the "non-trainer", mountain bike peddler, made it in 3:02
and looked magazine cool in all black doing it!
ARE YOU CRAZY!
That would bake the tar right out of me!
Well, I have heard - "It is better to Looook Goooood than to Feeeel Goooood" by someone named Fernando....LOL
You make me proud little brother
Laurie, who has acclimated so well to the Baird mode of camping and outdoor junk, yes we love you Laurie!
Did awesome at keepin up with all the nice road bikes on her Mountain Bike finishing in just under 1:23
I have ridden both, and you have to peddle twice as hard I swear to get a mountain bike moving!
Nice Job Laurie!

Brad "ROCKED THE HOUSE"!!!!
Time - 2:14 - Oh Ya!
Comming in 5th, out of 64 in his division - Woah
He came in an amazing 79th out of 1545 participants
That blows the roof out of my tini little mind!
Your my Hero Brad!
I want to be you when I grow up - LOL

Go Ang - can't believe with a wedding and tons of company you were able to even drag yourself there, let alone do the race! What a sister, you rock!
Race time - 2:53
Wahoo Big Bro Russ
Goal - finish in under 3 hours
finish time - 2:59
Yesssss!!!

What a Great first Vaughn Baird Reunion!!!!

Hi Vaughn Baird Clan!

Just have to say how AWESOME it was to have the first ever VB reunion around the Spudman! I was so excited to have so many participants in the race. I have to admit I was a little veclempt as each person crossed the finish line. I am so Proud of you all! Anyhoo, I thought we could all share our pictures. So......here are some I took with my phone, the camera won't currently read on my computer so those will have to come later.

Thanks again to all my kin for getting together. And major kudos to the racers!! Next time I hope we have even more.

Love you all, Sydney
