Longmont pumpkin meet

Cody had a 2 day swim meet over the weekend.  We were hoping that he would finally get a legal time for butterfly and breast stroke as well as improve his pb's.  He did get 5 pb's and 1 DQ (for breaststroke), but overall he had a great swim weekend.

Balloon Glow

Westminster held a balloon glow this year. This is where they don't let the balloons take off, but they set them up and hit the burner so you see a glow.  Unfortunately they claimed it was too windy to do even that, so we only got to see the fire pit and the basket without the balloon.

Cody gets a new PB in his 5k

The boys ran another 5k this weekend.  Tyler ran with us for the first half of the race, then sped off to the finish.  Cody improved on his previous time of 37:08 to a more respectable 34.33 beating his dad by 2 seconds at the finish line.

Cody takes part in a pizza meet

While I was timing at the pizza meet, Cody had his older brother Tyler act as manager and coordinator.  Cody did all 4 25 yard events (fly, free, breast, back) and had a couple of unofficial pb's.

Celebrating Camerons birthday

We went to the Westminster adventure golf center to celebrate Camerons birthday.  Tyler showed he was the fastest go kart driver again, but I did manage to beat him at golf.

Fright night at Elitch gardens

We have been to Elitch gardens a few times this year to take advantage of our season pass. This was our last time of the year and coincided with fright night. Basically they add a few props to the rides and make it look more scarier. We didn't do many rides, but the boys had fun.
