We had a very busy day today. We started the day with football weigh ins for Hyrum. He weighed above the max amount so he will have an "X" on his helmet. He was hoping that if he didn't have the "X" that he might get to be a wide receiver. I explained to him that he will likely not get off the line due to this being his first year. Tiffany, Mari, and Eve went to the Fidelity 5K race they had before the start of the Summer BBQ. Emma was at dance lessons. We met up for the BBQ with Nate, Eliza, Kimberly, Rachael, and Sammie. Mark was there too but he was busy assisting with the food. After that we went to a swim party for Hyrum's football team. It has been a challenge to get to know the parents on this team. It seems like most of them are not LDS and they seem reluctant to reach beyond their tight nucleus of parents who have kids that have played football int he past. I left the family at the party to help Carrie and Dean unload their belonging into storage. They are looking for a new home. They have moved from Idaho back to Utah but they have not found a place to live yet. After that we gathered the family to go take family pictures in Herriman. Emma's dance instructor Andrea came with us to snap the shots. I then took the family to Cafe Rio for dinner. I was too tired to think about fixing dinner. It was a very tiring day. we finished the day watching TV as a family.
We complete a Triathlon last weekend. President Saunders asked the sport committee to create a sprint triathlon for the Stake. We had three Stakes involved. We thought we might get 30-40 people to show and we had around 240. It went well and everybody seemed to have fun. I was in charge of the run. I made a bunch of signs to mark the run route. There was a lot that went into the race. Tiffany, Emma and Eve ran the race. The race went from the South County swimming pool (swim 300 meters), along the Jordan River parkway and up 13th West (bike about 5 miles) and the run from the church by the city cemetery down Lover's Lane and back (about 2 miles). Now on to volleyball and and soon basketball.
