A Lake and Biking weekend

The weekend started with a trip to Lake Panorama on Saturday. Our head swim coach and her family have a lake house and they host a lake party for each of our age groups. This weekend was the 9-10 age group party. I've wanted to go the last couple of years, but with bike races and other activities, it just hadn't worked out. Alexa and I had a blast and hope to make it to the 8 and under party the end of July!

Alexa LOVED coach Kim's dolphin statue. Our team name is the dolphins and Kim has started quite a collection of them!

We got to do one lap in the kayak before she wanted out. Sara managed to get a picture of her smiling!

Swimming in the lake with some of the swim team girls!

Sunday we headed up to Boone for a Mt. Bike race. It is definitely harder to watch the race with Alexa in tow. We didn't make it into the woods, but got a couple of pictures by the start finish line. Kyle is racing expert again this year. This was race #4 for the summer. He's not sure how he finished. He knows he was mid-pack in a group of 20 and was happy with how the race went.

Alexa even got to try out Seth Tellinghuisen's bike. It was a little big for her, but she tried to put her feet on the pedals. Time to get a trike!!

I should have waved at you when we went by on the boat then. Glad to hear you had fun at Panorama.
