Great First Half!

My summer has been pretty much the most exciting summer I've ever had. The thing is, it's only going to get more exciting. You see the the 1st week of June I went to Carlsbad to spend time with my dad. On the 5th and 6th I went to a family reunion in Balmoreah. The next week my mom decided we should probably stay in Monahans for the boy's baseball tournament. That was probably a good idea. Nolan's team won on Monday against the Yankees 6 to 1. That was an exciting game. Since they won that game they didn't have to play until Wednesday. On Wednesday they played the undefeated Dodgers which became the defeated Dodgers, causing them to play on Friday. The Championship Game. Nolan unfortunately couldn't go because of a family reunion, but they still won. From what I hear the score was 12 to 3. They played the Dodgers. Caleb's team did pretty good. On Monday his team lost 6 to 2 against the Rockhounds. That was the worst they lost to that team ever. They had to play on Tuesday against a team called Storm. They beat them in the 4th inning 14 to 4. The team Storm was pretty worn out. On Wednesday they played the Mets. They beat them. On Thursday they played the Mudcats and beat them. On Friday they played the Rockhounds again and lost. That just means that they got 2nd place. I think they did really good. On the 12-14 I was at a family reunion in Llano. It was really fun besides Caleb getting a huge blister on his face and Evan getting blisters on his arm. After that, while my mom went to Carlsbad, I stayed in Monahans. I decided that I wanted to work out. I'm doing the same thing this week and this is my dad's last week in Carlsbad! Next week is Scout Camp and today is my birthday! I'll refresh my update after Scout Camp.

Sincerely yours,

Blu

It's so much better

You'll be surprised at how much better my face looks right now! The day after I went to the doctor, it was allready clearing up. Right now I don't have any scabs on my face. I'm glad that the medication is working. News on working out, we maxed out this week. In other words, We saw the most we could lift on the certain thing we were lifting. My max on bench last time was, 95. This time it was 110. On incline, last time it was 95. This time it was 100. On squat, last time it was 125. This time it was 150. I might retest tomorrow. On power clean, last time it was 95. This time it was 110. I'm glad I improved on everything. Next time I do squat my goal is to get at least 200. Phase 2 starts Monday. I missed Monday because I went to the doctor, so I had to make up what I missed. The things that I missed were shuttle, verticle, and dummy jump. We didn't dummy jump last time, but this time I did 52 dummy jumps. On vertical, last time I got 11. On the...

Stock Show

I've really enjoyed the past week at the stock show with showing a pig and 4 lambs. As my mom might have allready told you, I got 4th place with my pig on Tuesday. On Thursday, I had to go up to the barns at 8:00, and start washing all 10 lambs. We didn't get completely done until 4:00 p.m. It was very exhausting. That night, Evan showed in the pee-wee show and did very good. Nolan was in the 1st class of lambs which was the light weight crosses. He got 1st place in that class and Caleb and Bobby were in the Medium weight class. Bobby had a cross and a fine wool, and decided to show his cross since they were in the same class. He had Riley Price show his other lamb. Bobby got 4th, Caleb got 3rd, and Riley Price got 2nd with the fine wool. I showed a heavy weight cross and it was the 2nd heaviest lamb that was showed. I got 2nd and didn't get reserved or breed champion cross. The next class was light weight medium wool. I had a lamb that was supposed to be a cro...

Band

3 weeks ago we had our band competition in Midland. We went to school until 4th period, and even then we still had to wait a little bit. We went just 30 min. into the period and then we were dismissed for lunch. After that we came to the band hall at 12:30 and departed at 1:00. When we got to Midland, we waited for about a half hour. During that half hour people either slept or they went to the bathroom. We went to warm up at 2:30. We performed at 3:00. President Witcher was there to listen and watch and he thought it was fantastic! I must have been because we ended up getting a 1 in both concert and sight reading. Of course we ended up getting a sweepstakes. But something even more amazing than that is that the symphonic band (B band) got a sweepstakes also! From what I hear that hasn't happened in Monahans in 10 years! A lot of amazing things happened this year including getting a 2 in marching. Not exactly the best part of history, but we turned things around in the...
