Football Break


No football this weekend!! It has been cold and rainy all week and the fields are all beat up. So I thought I would show you pictures from the Galvin Triathlon that was run last weekend. All the boys placed first in their age groups but no prizes were given out.


It was Brody's idea for Joe and him to run a triathlon. Hunter joined in the fun and I grabbed my camera. First, we had to make sure everyone was dressed the proper way. Brody had a biking shirt, given to him by a cousin, and Hunter wore one of Joe's smaller biking shirts so he could have one too. They ran a reverse tri- run, bike, swim. Of course, on the first lap of running, Hunter fell and scraped his knee. You can't tell in the pictures but he was walking when Joe went back to get him. Brody came running up the street, wiping sweat away and concentrating on breathing in the nose and out the mouth. Hunter was able to catch up with Brody on the bike so he was happy that he wasn't last. We got into the car and went to the pool where each boy had to swim 100M. After the swim portion, we just played in the water!



Brody went to a birthday party and they had a face painter. He wanted to be Darth Mull from Star Wars!! We had to go to church an hour after the party was done. Joe was the lector, which means we sit in the front row. I couldn't let Brody go to church like that so I washed it off. He had a pink glow to him for a couple of days.
