3v3 Tourney

Jaelyn had some friends played in a 3v3 Tournament.  They went undefeated - crushing every opponent....even an all boys team!  These girls are tough as nails!  So fun!

Mud Run!

The kids had their first experience with an obstacle course/mud run!  We decided it would be more fun with a bunch of friends doing it at the same time...but overall they had fun!  Proud of Ben who wasn't going to do it, but gave it a go at the last minute.  Proud of Brooke because she is 4 and the youngest racer was supposed to be 5!  She did SO awesome!  Proud of Jaelyn for going out their and giving it her all - she's a competitor!

 Before (someone's not too excited!)
After










 Mud!!

 Ben goes in the pit, Brooke steps in and decides not too!

 All clean thanks to the firefighters hose!

Great way to cool off in the heat!

Soccer Toughness

 Tripled teamed....she still managed to get around them!


 Always ready to battle for the ball!

Surf Cup - The Best of the Best

  Jaelyn's U10 team went to their first Surf Cup!  It's known as the best tournament on the west coast and only the "best of the best" are allowed to come.  Jaelyn's team was the only team from Washington in their age group.  It was a fun experience for the girls and now they have a surf cup under the belts!  Although the didn't come away with a win, they learned a lot and played super hard.  Proud of these girls!








 After the tournament was done, there was lots of pool time and just being silly!
 Chicken fights

 Room service at bed time!  Nothing better than milk and cookies!
 Paddle boarding fun at Dana Point


Evidence that I was on the trip with J!
Super special to just be on this trip with J - - loved having 1:1 time with her!

Oregon Coast

The Byeman camping trip brought us to the Oregon coast this year - Honeyman State Park.  It was fun to camp in a different location - dunes, ocean....beautiful! But before our adventure, we got to shop at the Nike Employee Store - - what a treat!

 Tried not to break the bank, but everyone stocked up on shoes and a bit of apparel!
 Jaelyn's favorite USNWT player - - Alex Morgan!
We made it to the coast!  Beautiful!






Fun times just hanging out with cousins while camping:



 Haning out at the camp site:
Jaelyn, Maya, Ben, Alyssa, Madi, Brooke, Elisabeth, & Emily
 Connor is off to Gonzaga in the fall, but he is the nicest boy ever!  Jaelyn enjoyed bugging him as only an 9 year old does (!), playing soccer with him, sand boarding, etc.  
Kiddos plus Nick


Sand Dune fun!!

Goof ball! 
Yep, it was windy and cold on the ride!


The dunes right behind our camp site! 
 Geocashing with the crew

 Ben was a natural on the sand board!  He must have gone up and down the dune a million times!
 Jaelyn had fun on the sand board too!
Not to be outdone....Brooke had a go of it too!  No fear, that girl!

Good Family Time:
The whole Byeman Clan
 S'mores!

 Opa & Ben


 BFF's  - - Brooke & Emily!
 Ben & Curtis...Ben can't wait until Curty-worty gets older & can play



 It wouldn't be camping without a stop at an ice cream store!
