Exhaustion

That's how I feel... as does the rest of the family.

Just spent the last four days at the National Water Polo Junior Olympics. Kyle's team did well... they went in seeded 41 out 48 teams invited, and ended up 21st in the nation! They had the biggest leap of seed-to-finish. Our friend Joe's team was seeded 6th and finished there as well. [btw, another friend Blake was in Lincoln, NE, over the weekend for the track and field JO's and finished sixth in the nation as well...] Very cool.

Of course, not cool was Kyle getting rolled for a brutality call in the last game. In an attempt to swim the ball away from a defender, he was grabbed on the arm from behind, and when he stroked forward, he had his hand balled into a fist... and the ref mistook it for an attempt to cause harm. So he was rolled for the game (and will miss the next USA Water Polo-sanctioned game... thank goodness it was the last game of the tournament). Thankfully, his team was able to go undermanned for the last four minutes of the game.

He had a pretty good weekend... and we saw some great teams. But we're tired now, and I'm back to work... sigh.
