Week of June 15-20 Resting, Swimming, and Baseball

Last week we took the opportunity to do a lot of resting. There was no baseball practice during the week no soccer practice either. Chloe did have swim team and softball still-but we had a lot of down time. Tanner slept in a lot and Chloe took a lot of much needed naps.
We did go swimming on Tuesday. The bad thing was that I got sunscreen on me and Preslie and Bryce, but not on Tanner and Chloe. (mom of the year right there). Even worse they ended up being at the pool for at least three hours. Can you say 2nd degree burns at least. So yeah we needed even more down time after that-as they were in a lot of pain.
(Tanner's burn after a week or so)
Friday and Saturday Tanner had a baseball tournament in Panguitch. I took Tanner to Panguitch and we spent the night. Crazy thing the first game was originally scheduled at 9 am so we got up bright and early to leave town and get there on time-only to show up and have Tanner realize he had gotten a text the day before with a game change to 2 pm. I seriously wanted to beat the child! So we had hours to waste we drove up to Panguitch Lake, and over to Bryce Canyon. Then we had some lunch and were finally able to check into our hotel. The played two games and lost both of them. One of the games turned pretty ugly with a coach and player from Tanners team both getting ejected. Tanner only played about two innings in each. After the games we went to the movie theatre to watch San Andres. Then off to our luxury accommodations (haha) for a good nights rest. The next morning they played another game-they ended up losing by one point-but they still lost-so they were out of the tournament and we headed home. Tanner played about 3 innings of that game.
 

While we went to Panguitch I left Chloe and Bryce home. Chloe tended him all day Friday until Landon got home. They did go to my Grandma's for a few hours at one point-but overall she managed all by herself. She did such a good job too-she made sure he got to the bathroom (no accidents), she put him down for a nap, and she even made cookies. What a good SIS. When Landon got home he took them both out for frozen yogurt. Saturday Chloe had a swim meet @ Dixie. She swam three races. The breast, IM, and Free. She did really good in each race. She is beating her times each week and getting stronger and better ever day. This year might be a tough year for her since she is in a new age group and is the very youngest-but I think we can still plan to see some good things. In the breast she took 5th overall, 1st overall in the IM, and 8th overall in the Freestyle. Way to go Chloe!!! She definitely is part fish.
