Independence Day 2016

Did you have a lovely, long Independence Day weekend?  We sure did.  I, for one, really needed it. Work has been toxic lately.

We started with extra practice for the relay meet Friday night.  A thunderstorm in the evening left us with a gorgeous swim meet on Saturday and then a cookout afterwards.  Sunday morning had the boys swimming in the relay meet.  It is an honor for their swim coach to choose both of them to swim for the team and what a competitive meet it was. Then afterwards we enjoyed the cool weather at the baseball game.  On the Fourth, DD went to a playdate while we hung out with BB.  It rained all day but there was a window of no rain, letting us catch the fireworks again!  Although we had a lot of fun this weekend, we could use a break from all the grilled hot dogs, burgers, and steaks. It's back to normal and healthier eats this short week.

Our Summer camp schedule starts now, which means all of us have to get used tot he earlier schedule.  I'm back to packing lunches and water bottles and making sure thing sure things are clean. That coupled with swim team keeps me on my toes.
