Week 23/52 (Summer, Week 1)

Dearest Jackson and Colt,

We wasted no time at all starting our summer break and everything was fast and furious during our first week of heaven.

Day 1 meant swim practice moved from afternoons (4:00-5:15) to mornings (8:45-10:00).  And, since it was a Friday, you were rewarded with ice cream thanks to your coaches.


There was supposed to be a baseball tournament that weekend but our area got a ton of rain, which delayed the tourney and kept us inside.  Y'all didn't mind because we busted out your very favorite board game.


Thankfully, the skies were clear come Monday...so y'all headed to soccer camp.


Later that day your swim team held their mock meet (the meet only for our swimmers where you're timed to figure out your seed times for upcoming meets).


Afterward, all the swimmers jumped in and had an impromptu pool party!


We couldn't stay all night though because you had a baseball game that had been rescheduled from the weekend.  Your team played at Grapevine's gorgeous fields and you WON!


Tuesday it was back to soccer camp...but I only took mental pictures ;)
That afternoon we met up with Coach Halle for some private lessons to make up for what you missed by being away at soccer camp.



You had another baseball game that night and y'all won again!



No photographs were taken on Wednesday...not from soccer camp, not from your orthodontist appointment, not from your swim lessons with Coach Halle, and none from us laying around doing nothing all night as we celebrated a night off due to y'all being seeded FIRST in the tourney!

Thursday was the final day of soccer camp and you were instructed to wear your camp shirts.  I had to snap a quick pick since you were twinning! 


The soccer coach had the same idea and he grabbed a few pics himself and I borrowed them from his Twitter account.  




We were back at the baseball fields that night to figure out a winner for this tournament.


 Y'all fought so hard!  And you won your first two games that evening.  But, in the championship game, you missed the first place trophy by 2 runs and ended up taking second place.  There were 16 teams that competed in your division so we were thrilled, to say the least!
