Some Pictures

Since we were going to miss the annual BBQ at Cascade Park or The River as my family calls it, we made a quick run for it on Thursday night as soon as Adam got home from work. It's our summer happy place.

My boys...solving the problems of the world

We had to stop on our way out for a requisite ride on the zip line:



Altogether a great time


Then the swim meet:


Don't they look like Michael Phelps only slower, with no Olympic gold medals or freakish bodies that makes them brilliant swimmers? I thought so too.

Hours spent at the swim meet:
11 (only 8 1/2 by me but Adam was the superstar and had Braeden there at 6:30 a.m.)
Personal Best times beat by Braeden and Emma:
Three
Temperature in Kirkland, WA yesterday:
90 degrees and we are huge hot weather wimps with our cool Seattle summers so yes, we nearly died.
Amount for parking tickets because we both parked in the same lot that was permit parking only and we thought they didn't mean Saturday, during the swim meet: $50
Happy kids who loved being on the swim team:

My vote is priceless

But it's over for the summer and when my alarm doesn't go off at 6:45 tomorrow morning, I will not be complaining!

Great pictures of the family fun at Cascade. We missed the annual event too. Great job to your kids on the swim team.
