Seafair Triathlon

The kids had their first experience with a triathlon! It was a huge success and they already talking about next year! Fun for them to try new things! Brooke really wants to do it next year. You have to be 6 yrs old, but she could totally do it.....so we'll see!

Bike all prepped and ready to go!

Ready to tackle his first triathlon!!

Way to go Buddy!! 5th place in his division, 8th overall! 7:22 minutes!

Off to the bike transition zone

7th place in her division, 13th overall! 8:20 minutes

You did it! You conquered the triathlon!!
(Mt. Rainier in the background...could it be a more perfect day!?)

Both are pumped and already talking about next year! Ben wants to do the intermediate course, Jaelyn wants to do an even longer triathlon than the intermediate course. :)

Crossfire Challenge Tournament

Jaelyn's soccer team played 5 games in 3 days...and made it to the championship game! The girls ended up in 2nd place - losing to a California team 3-0. It sure didn't feel like a 3-0 game...the girls played tough and laid it all on the field. So fun to watch the girls gel as a team. They have amazing ability at 9 years of age! Impressive.

U10 A team!

Coach Justin, Mia, Sofia, Jaelyn, Chloe, Maddie

Olivia, Sammy, Ellie, Grace, Deandra

Going towards goal!

Love her tenacity on the field

Treats after a hard fought game!

Teammates

Sisters

So proud of you! #17

Lake Chelan FUN

This year brought us to Lake Chelan for our annual 4th of July camping trip with friends & family. It was another great camping trip...lots of fun memories! The kids pedaled 100's of laps on their bikes, had red/white/blue fun, slipping and sliding fun at Slidewaters....including purple haze (!), lots of beach fun, s'mores, a bucket of fries, and you can't forget the blue sky/sunshine warm weather. Lots of giggles, late nights and even a fireworks show in the comfort of our camping chairs!
