Dr. DeYoung

What a whirlwind couple of days!  Nate successfully defended his dissertation on Thursday and while he  technically still has to complete his internship in order to fulfill all his doctoral requirements, I'm calling him Doctor anyway.


While Nate was sweating it out in front of his committee, I was able to visit with some old friends.  Me and Avery got to be silly at Jump It and while adults aren't really supposed to play on the inflatable slides, Jennifer and I did anyway.




We both knew that my mom was coming down from Chicago on Thursday, but neither me nor Nate knew Katherine coming! She surprised us Thursday night while we were out celebrating with friends.


My Mimi and Grandpa even drove over on Friday to surprise Nate too.  Mimi also brought Dr. Bear with her, who wanted to congratulate Nate in person.



Finally, a moment to relax and catch up on some basketball while enjoying fro-yo at Orange Leaf.


And finally, a random sister picture.  


Thank you to everyone out there who supported and prayed for Nate along the way!  It meant a lot to both of us to know that people were thinking of him on Thursday.

City champs

 Cross country season is officially over. Last night was city finals and Blackhawk girls finished first. We took 1st, 3rd, 5th, 8th and 10th place. Evelyn ran 14:56, so about 10 seconds off her PR.  She was 32nd overall out of 64 girls.  Her place counted for her team which she was happy about. The boys did good too and finished in second place overall.

Last weekend

 Last weekend was a busy one. I had the Fort4Fitness, Evelyn had a cross country invitational in Huntington and Jameson had two soccer games in Middlebury. All on Saturday! Friday I spent all afternoon at the F4F expo. The weather was lovely so that was nice. When it was busy, the time passed quickly. When it was slow, there were still enough people that I wasn’t totally bored.  Evelyn had a great run and PR’ed with at time of 14:40.  It was an early morning for them as she had to be at the meet by 8:40. But that was better for us since Jameson’s games were into the afternoon.  I had a decent half marathon. I ran 2:10:30 which is slower than I’d like but I’ve also been dealing with a nagging right knee problem. So I honestly was thankful I could run and run the race without much discomfort.  I was fast enough to get home, shower and eat lunch before we left for soccer. Jameson’s team won the first game 0-1 and tied the second 1-1. He scored both the goals. ...

Futsal

 It’s futsal season. Jameson had his first game tonight. It’s all just intra club fun meant to help the players develop and practice over the winter. Parents only have to help during games with subbing but we also got Evelyn to help run the scoreboard.
