Picture of the Week - 6/21/2018

I hardly ever get to share cool pictures of Quinn.  That's why this one is so special!  One of the moms on our team was taking pictures all weekend.  Bless her!  I hardly ever think about pictures - and this weekend was no exception!



We had a great time in Asheville.  It was actually a nice, relaxing weekend away that just happened to have lacrosse games as entertainment.  Quinn's team ended up winning the "B" bracket - which was a pretty fun way to end his youth lacrosse "career".  It's on to high school lacrosse for him now!

Quinn's been hilarious this summer.  He's started lifting (for the first time ever) with the high school lacrosse team and he's also been doing wrestling workouts with the team on his off nights from lacrosse.  He's SORE!  I don't think he's ever worked this hard.  He's been a pretty good spirit about the whole thing and I think he's pretty excited that after like 2 weeks of working out he can already see results.  (This is what happens when you carry around 5% body fat...)

This weekend the wrestling coach took the high school team up to UT Chattanooga for a Dual Camp.  You guys...  I didn't really see/look at the schedule for this event until the boys were already on the way there.  Holy cow!  I'm exhausted just looking at it.  They wrestle until 10 PM and then back up at 7 for breakfast.  It's a combo of technique drills/practice, conditioning, and live matches dual-style.  Spencer will be wrestling 195 again this year and Quinn is probably going to be 112 or 120.  Quinn likely won't get much varsity work this year (which is kind of obvious since he needs more work/experience/practice and there are a BUNCH of kids around that weight), but this kind of exposure is SO good for him.  I'm really proud of him for diving into this team the way he has.  I can't wait to watch him on the mats this winter!

Check out the schedule below!

Tuesday I'm heading back over to Glasgow for some more MBA work.  The next module we are studying is about International Business.  I'm looking forward to this one because it's taught almost entirely using scenario-based training and discussions.  Sounds very interesting!

And then after the class, I get to fly directly to the BEACH for vacation.  I am so excited for some down time!  The packing-prepping-list writing that needs to happen to get myself ready, all the food prepped so Bob can grab and go, and as much packing help as I can do ahead of time for Bob and the boys is NOT fun...  but it will all be worth it when we get to that beach house, smell the salt in the air, and hear the waves crashing.  

Wrestling camp schedule - say a little prayer that Quinn makes it through!  I'm sure Spencer will eat this up...  he oddly enjoys challenges and pushing himself like this (i.e. doing football/wrestling two-a-days pretty much every day this summer), but Quinn is gonna be WIPED OUT!  (*** late breaking update***  I literally just got a text from Spencer saying that Quinn won his first match this evening!  I'm ridiculously proud of that dude!!!)
