Missouri Winter Games

This weekend was a busy one... phew! Jim participated in the Missouri Winter Games again this year. Ahhh, smell the chlorine. He swam in five total events over the course of Saturday and Sunday: Men's 50 yd. Freestyle, 100 yd. Individual Medley, 100 yd Freestyle, 200 yd. Freestyle, and the 500 yd. Freestyle. I need to brag on him as he came away with three first place medals and two second place medals. I, on the other hand, came away with a little bit of from-the-bleachers high school nostalgia and a free t-shirt. Thanks, Jim, for the understanding and unselfish nod to my t-shirt fettish. And to any random stranger who asks... "Why, yes, I did participate in the Missouri Winter Games. How did you know?"

While we cheered for Jim, Jack and Emma got to visit with Aunt Kim and all three of their cousins. We all had great fun!

Emma attracted her own kind of attention looking cute in the cheering section.



And by the end of Sunday night, this is about how we all felt.... slugs on the couch.
