Seattle Triumph

We went to Seattle last week and returned with a certificate 14 years in the making.

Almost

These days we are almost in over our heads.... 

More blogging when we can get to dry ground!

Summer List

At the beginning of the summer I asked the kiddos what they wanted to do and on the top of Mimi's list was seeing the baby polar bear at the zoo.  This is no easy task!  Because the baby is a baby she is only out to be seen for an hour or less and we have to be there early to get in line!

We made it one day and got a good look

Olympics Day Camp

While Parker was at Boy Scout camp I signed up the younger kiddos for a 1/2 day Day Camp.  It wasn't the best decision (just being honest).  Again I thought it would be fun, but it turned out to be another chance for more athletic children to get frustrated at my kiddos lack of athleticism --ugh!  

But here are some highlights of the good times....

Cleaning up the mats at the end, such good helpers! 

Track and Mimi

In her age level, Mimi finished 4th over all in Discus, tied for 3rd place in Shot put!

She also was right in the middle of pack for Long Jump and finished 19th our 26 in the 100 meter.  Her goal was not to be last this year, so she's improving!

But Hello!  3rd in Shot put!  Just imagine if she had any muscles!
