Summer Update

August is always a whirlwind with back to school craziness, birthdays, practices...lots off good stuff!  But also not a lot of time for extra things....like blogging. :)

The boys were both in the summer production of Beauty and the Beast and had a great time being a part of their 3rd musical production with Manhattan Parks and Recreation.

Mitchell competed in his last 12&under competition with a strong performance that same weekend as the musical in Wichita at MVS Long Course District Championships.  He has moved up to blue group for the Marlins this fall and will now be swimming with the 13&up age groups from now on.  Which also means most swim meets for the boys will involve them swimming in separate sessions.  We will take on the divide and conquer family swim meet approach from now on!

In early August, Chad took the boys on a mancation to Colorado while I was busy with lost of back to school meetings and teacher in services.  They had a great time camping and fishing and even made it to the summit of Pike's Peak.

Mitchell has started middle school and comes with me to work every day!!!  We both had milestone birthday's in August.  I turned 40 and one day later we had a teenager in the house.  What an amazing young man he is growing up to be!  He is loving middle school!!
