Mallori

Mallori has been an active supporter of Wyatt and is keeping very busy with Girl Scouts. Her troop has been fundraising for the Big Apple in June 09. This is a wonderful opportunity for her and the 10 other girls that will be participating. I refuse to miss out myself, so I will tagging along. I see I am lacking in photos of Mallori so that is my mission, to take more. We'll see how I do.

Moorhead Meet

Finally, a few minutes to update this a bit. I have been slacking. I know the videos are a bit slow for some to load, luckily they are short. It wouldn't be the same to just take pictures, not to mention I'm not real good at catching any activity. Wyatt has had many meets in January, a few we weren't able to get to. The meets are typically on Tuesday or Thurday and have been 2 to 4 hours away. The season is coming to an end soon. Wyatt has an excellent shot of going to 8AA sections this year, we are told this is rare for a first year diver/swimmer, so it is exciting.

Anytime they have a meet they also have practice at 5:30 before school. Wyatt had tried this back flip/dive for the first time that morning and was very nervous when it came time at the meet. He had done so many backflops that morning he had a bruise on his back. At the meet was the first time he hadn't smacked, he was tickled.
