Our Ordinary Life

OK, I'm trying to keep this more up-to-date (HAH!)

The boys have been swimming for the neighborhood swim team for the last few weeks. Neither one was a very good swimmer before joining the team. Adam was not comfortable at all in the water unless he could touch the bottom. 4 weeks later, both are fearless!

Geary's favorite stroke is the butterfly:


Adam's favorite stroke is the backstroke:


We won this week 291 - 256! Next week is the Division Meet, then we are done for the summer. Both boys are so happy swimming. It's the best sport we could have put them in. Since they are almost 2 years apart, the will never directly compete against each other (a good thing!), although they do like to compare to see who did better time-wise in their age brackets. I guess I have a couple of competitors :)

Last weekend we went to Texas Motor Speedway with Greg & Shari and their kids to watch the Truck and IRL races. We camped at the track, which made it a whole lot easie with all the kids. I think all the kids had a really good time (including the "big kids" LOL!):

The cousins:


The whole gang at the track:

How Adam spends most of the race:



I'll be back in the next couple days to share some of my more recent layouts.
