OUT FOR A BOATRIDE....


We had an awesome weekend in Boise for Special Olympic State Games. As you can see Vanessa won 3 gold medals in swimming, one for the 50 meter freestyle, 25 meter freestyle and a 4 x 50 relay. As she put it she "smoked em'". She had the great opportunity to be the global messanger which was such an honor. I have no pictures of the dance, but I will put a video up as soon as I can figure out how. She had a blast at the "victory Dance" THe last day in Boise we played all day at Wahooz. She had a great weekend, I however, am still exhausted!!
I LOVE THAT GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
