Tim's Special Olympics




In July the girlies and I were lucky enough to take a quick trip to Boise. My younger but bigger brother Tim was a member of his area's Special Olympics basketball team and my brother in law Albert was traveling with the team as a sort of chaperone. His team played fantastically, and ended up winning GOLD! Go Tim! These pics are the only ones I took, sadly. We brought Addie, my niece, with us. We did a drop-off, leaving her and our two oldest with Grandmother so they could drive back to Coeur D'Alene with her for the annual Grandparent retreat. Thank you to my sis Connie and her hubbie Steve for letting us ALL crash their condo there in Boise that they live in for the summer while they run the Boise hub of their whitewater rafting business. While we were there we got to drive out to the starting point of the slow float. It is definitely on my list of things to do in the near future...when Ane is just a bit older. All of us can't wait to do it.

What a fun thing to do...watch my big little brother have such a great time and watch him do something he's so super proud of. We love you, Uncle Tim!
