Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Samantha had another fun summer swimming for the MBC Magic swim team! Even with being gone at camp for three weeks she still got 4 meets in and made it to practice every morning she was in town! She’s a hard worker! She got lots of ribbons, lots of stars, and had lots of fun!
After swimming the mile!
Swimmer of the Week!
I’m so proud of her for sticking with swim team and giving it her all!
Go Samantha and go MBC Magic!
The weekend before school started we took another trip down to Montgomery to visit Montgomery White Water! We scheduled a lesson for Maxwell and the instructor was great and got him right back into it!
She took him through the runs several times and he got better and better each time. He really learned to maneuver the drop well and got more confident each time!
Not every run went as expected – but it’s good to do this some so you know how to get back up, which he did every time!
He did the lesson from about 10 to 11:30 and then did a few runs on his own. We then stopped at ate lunch at Eddy’s out there – which was great! – and then he got back into the water for another hour or so. The place is so awesome with sidewalks all through it so I could walk around the runs and keep up with Maxwell and watch him. Really cool!
I LOVED watching this kid do something he loves. He was in his element.
A great day with a great kid.
MWW – we will be back!
Samantha did the Monday Wednesday tennis clinics all summer and really enjoyed it! I’d love for her to get bit by the tennis bug!!
Besides, when you look this cute in your tennis fit, how can you not play good?
The cutest crew too tennis stars!
Sometimes you have to get an after tennis lunch!
And loved this little pre-tennis reunion when Frances finally got home from camp!
Cute girls, fun tennis! Love love!
Apparently Maxwell didn’t get enough paddling at camp because as soon as he got home he figured out a way to get back in the water! He, Jude and Spencer (who has never paddled before!) headed down to Montgomery Whitewater to do a 3 day kayak camp.
It’s a really cool facility. They focused on skill development but Maxwell and Jude got to do some more advanced runs with the instructor and had a great time all week! Spencer caught on quickly and had a fantastic time as well.
Huge thank you to Lulu and Granddaddy for hosting, entertaining and feeding these boys!
And, yes, Maxwell now has “kayak” on his birthday list!!
Samantha has been doing the tennis clinics this summer and enjoying it!
Celebrating that winning shot!
Cute tennis girls!
Even better when we get to be tennis twinkies!!
Love love!
