Shelby Swim

Well, today is day 2 of Lenoir Swim Meet. We leave this am to drive 1 1/2 hours so Jen can swim in three events. She swam 2 yesterday and did great in her 50. She took 2 seconds off her best time and that will qualify her for state if there is a school swim team this year. We looked for friends of ours who are swimming with a different team but were never able to spot them. They swam in the am so maybe we can find them today. We are having a nice weekend despite the hear. John turned 8 on Sat. and we had a  breakfast birthday complete with candles on a pile of donuts. Then Jen and I hit the road for Lenoir. We called onstar to help once we arrived in Lenoir and had a nice conversation with one of their people. He actually was from Charlotte. Anyway, after the meet we drove home to a wonderful Chicken and Dumplings meal that Tim made in John's honor and then we all had birthday cake. What a full day! I was exhausted and slept soundly.
