The 3 Day

The 3 day was this past weekend and what a beautiful weekend it was!! The DuBar Dolls rocked all 60 miles and with less blisters then last year!! Me, my Dad and Miley went to all the cheering stations again and cheered them on and gave them hugs to keep them going. We camped at Bunker Hills campground in Anoka and then spent the days driving to all the cheering stations and just all around. We got to drive over the 35W bridge- which was historical- as last year we drove by it and took pictures of the collapse. We went out to eat at a Vietnamese resturant called Hoa Bien off of Lexington Avenue, I ate there for a lunch meeting before and wanted my Dad to try the eggrolls, they have the BEST eggrolls you'll ever eat!! It was a fun weekend spending time with Dad and Miley and we look forward to our time together again next year to cheer the Dolls on again!

We took more pictures on my parents camera and they are now relaxing up north so I'll have to post those pictures when they get home. But here are some cute ones of Miley...


Here we are at one of the cheering stations. We sat across the road in a grassy shady spot and Miley played toys


I wanted to get a picture of all her teeth but the top ones are hard to get a shot of. But here are her 4 bottom teeth-- YES-- she is 8 months old and has 8 teeth!!!! Four on top and four on bottom!!

In the mornings we would wake up and get ready and take off to find them at the first cheering stations and then we went to Panera Bread on Saturday morning and Caribou on Sunday morning to feed Miley her breakfast and enjoy a refreshment.


Miley was SOOO well behaved the whole weekend. For 8 months old I couldn't have asked her to be any better. She was a trooper! She might even be famous... on Sunday my Mom got us some 3-day t-shirts and they didn't have anything for babies so she decided to get her a multi-use wrap thing-- apparently you can wear it as a headband, a bandana, a neck wrap, a leg wrap, a sweat band, etc. So I put a white onsie on Miley and then put the wrap on her like a tube top and then topped it off with her string of pearls that a walker gave her-- she was a HUGE HIT!! All of the walkers LOVED her-- they remembered her all weekend and seeing her in some 3-day gear on Sunday really topped it off for them! Then at one of the cheering stations on Sunday some of the 3-Day crew took some photos of Miley, we had to sign a release form and everyhing so we are keeping our eyes peeled to see if she'll be in a brochure for next year.
