Morning everyone!! im just here to say im only on for a shor amount of time because i am leaving for Pennsylvania in a half an hour.

My dad called me with really shocking news last night. I thought he was calling to say my grandma had died, but he was calling to say one of my cousin's husbands had a massive heart attack yesterday and died. He was younger than me. You don't expect a 32'ish guy to die from a heart attack. It's all so terrible. Their story was already sad because they've been trying for years to have kids, and couldn't. They would have been such wonderful parents too. I have little contact with my dad's family, but this is my favorite cousin, so I think I should go to the service. My dad's family has fallen in to that category that I only see them at weddings (well, I miss most of the weddings) and funerals.

omg i am so sorry Abby. i know how it feels to loose someone so close to you. after my first competition last year, my uncle nicky,well my cousin but i called him uncle, died from cancer and he lived in florida close to WDW and when i went to disney this past august, it was wierd not seeing him. but my aunt, and my 2 great aunts live down there so everytime we go now, we have to visit them to keep them company. I hope you feel better Abby.

Have fun in PA Samantha!

Thanks. Actually I am fine. It's just so shocking. It's hard to wrap your mind around something like that when it is someone who is young.

Sounds like Tim did great!!

Just back in from yet another day of wild running around... Tim swam in 4 events today plus a relay. He had another good day - shaving time in all his events. He almost freaked out when he placed in a heat of the 200M backstroke with 17 & 18 year-olds!

Jake's team remained undefeated. He netted two goals and had many other chances that he, unfortunately, did not convert.

If I could - I would lie down and take a nap right now, but that isn't going to happen! Hope everyone is having a great weekend.
