The Amazing Whit

I am not sure what it is about Whit, but there is something about this special girl that just makes you want to be a better, and happier person. Maybe it is the fact that this girl never is in a bad mood (at least not that I can ever tell), or the fact that she is ALWAYS smiling. Whatever it is, I am one lucky guy that I get to be around her everyday.

Even when she is at the top of the largest building, and scared out of her mind, she is smiling.

Not sure how many people can run 26 miles and have .2 left but still be that happy, of course leave it up to Whit to do it. (Maybe it's the fact that she was running with her "Colcum" Colter)

If anyone knows Whit, she loves being with her family more than anything. When most people want to relax on a nice Sunday afternoon, she looks forward to seeing her entire family on Hammer Sunday's.

She sure loves her brothers!

She takes every opportunity to support her fam, even if that means catching a last minute flight to cheer her brother on in his first Ironman.

It is scary when Whit and her sister buy the exact same clothes, no joke.

Did I mention how much she loves her brothers?

Don't think for one second that she doesn't love her sisters just as much. Here is Whit and Kristen at the Salem Triathlon (Kristen's 1st one).

Whit as always loves to be around all her siblings.

Whit also loves to hang out with her good friends and loves every second of it.

I am surprised Whit and her friends even did their Irongirl Triathlon in Vegas, as much fun as they have down in Sin City.

Girls will be Girls.

Whit as a MOM

Not to out do Whit's love for her own family The Hammers, the one thing that makes Whit the happiest is being a MOM. It is safe to say that being a MOM was Whit's calling in life. I will never understand how she makes it look so easy, but she does, and loves every minute of it.

The kids love being goofy with MOM.

Whit is like a magnet, as soon as she gets in the pool the kids are all over her.

Whit will takes kisses from the kids anytime and anywhere they are giving them out.

Don't put it past Whit to throw a few kids around the pool every so often.

I will give you three guesses but I am sure you will only need one to figure out when we had a backyard camp out which tent the kids wanted to sleep in....... MOM or dad?

Many of you may think that our kids get their outgoing/goofy side from their obnoxious dad, but in reality MOM has some good material to draw from.

Oh my gosh what's this........Whit supporting her family once again, go figure. She is about the proudest MOM you will come across.

Even if she has to spend two nights sharing a hospital bed with Ethan while he was at Primary Children's to make certain he knows his MOM is there to protect him against the "vampire like doctors who suck his blood".

Whit at her best, right beside her kiddos when they need her the most.

Thank you Whitney for being you. Thank you for being the Mother, wife, sister, aunt, daughter and friend that you are, and for bringing so much happiness into all our lives. We truly love you more than you will ever know.
