Cops

The kids have been policing the Monsoon action this week and today they were rewarded.

Too bad Thursday night is one of their only times off from swim ;)

Highway to Heaven

Or just the road to home...

Head Of The Class

I'm so proud of this girl.

Beautiful inside and out!

Magnum PI

I can't comment because I am laughing so hard!

Incredible Hulk

Quantum Leap

It's a quantum leap for Lucy to open her eyes underwater without goggles.

Married with Children

Ted and I acting more like the kids with the underwater camera...

One Day at a Time

Easy to look forward to the next day when the current day ends like this...

Designing Women

These women definitely have designs on something...

Different Stokes

Butterfly definitely is a different stroke for Lucy.

She did great in her 100 fly though!

Too Close for Comfort

This picture says it all :)

Saved by the Bell

Bell? Whistle?

Either way Madison can save you now!

Eight is Enough

Lane 8 is not a great place to be when you are racing giants.

Gimmie A Break

Or not...

Lucy's arm has been hurting since the rollerskating incident.

Luckily we found out today it is not broken.

Small Wonder

More like small miracle...

It helps that Wyatt's computer crashed.

Thirty Something

Track workouts in my 30's at o'dark-thirty would have probably been OK.

But it's going to kill me now in my 40's!

Three's Company

3's company, 4's a crowd and 5 is just too many!

Punky Brewster

Lucy was feeling punky so we took some Seaweed Selfies.

Who's The Boss

It's a toss up between these two...

The Facts of Life

Madison is joining the workforce this summer holding down two jobs

Silver Spoons

Ted kind of looks like Ricky

Miami Vice

More like Tucson Heat

Cheers

Cheers to Lucy and I for surviving 3 long days in the heat.

At least she got to go in the pool. I just got to walk around it :(

The A Team

FAST was a team swimming at a meet at the U of A all weekend.

Full House

It feels like a full house with everyone home and inside all day all summer.

We came up with indoor beach ball volleyball using the couch as a net.

Square Pegs

Or just squares...

Our first SAAA meet of the year.

The pool had only 4 lanes and we didn't get home until after 11pm.

Family Ties

Right now swimming ties our family together.

Wyatt, Lucy and I swim for FAST.

Madison coaches for FAST.

Ted is going to start swimming with me while he is home.

Suzy is always ready for a swim!

Happy Days

Summer = Happy Days!

Growing Pains

These pants used to be too long...

Lucy is going to be taller than all of us!

Misspelled

Misspelled.

It's easy to misspell Javelina if you aren't from Arizona.

It's not easy to miss them though when you are out on a run.

Z is for...

Zoom.

Suzy will zoom all over the pool chasing down this ball and taking out anyone in her way.

Y is for...

Yikes.

Wyatt (green cap) sneaking a peak during a fly event.

The age was 13 and overs. He isn't used to swimming against the much older boys.

X is for...

XTreme.

There was an extreme difference in ages in Wyatt's 50 Breaststroke heat this weekend.

Nothing like racing an Olympian!

W is for...

Wyatt.

Some pics of Wyatt from the weekend meet.

Wyatt is in the green cap.

V is for...

Vain.

We have Ted taking selfies now ;)

U is for...

Upperclassmen.

All my kids are upperclassmen next year.

Madison will be a Junior and Wyatt and Lucy will be 8th graders.

T is for...

Twins.

Everyone knows I hate to call Wyatt and Lucy 'Twins' but I couldn't think of another 'T' word.

I'm Too Tired!

S is for...

Sunrise.

Yes, the sunrise is pretty on my run.

Yes, the early morning weather makes it nicer to run.

But it still stinks to get up at 4am to get the kids off to practice and to run while they are at swim!

R is for...

Ridiculous.

It is ridiculous to think that Madison is going to be a Junior next year and will be gone a year after that!

Q is for...

Questionable.

Wyatt and his questionable dance moves.

N is for...

Nerds.

Oops. I posted N on Facebook and forgot to put it on my blog.

Madison is going to miss her AP Chemistry class the most.

P is for...

Pal.

Madison and her pal Julia heading off to the OV pool.

That pool is our family's second home these days!
