July, oh July.
You have been such an athletic month! There were so many hours put into hard training and all the sweat and hard work definitely paid off at the end.
Kids started the month by running Kids run during Canada Day’s celebration.
Katrin celebrated her 8th B-day. She is changing so much! She is such a bright and funny person to be around. She always cracks us up with her jokes and she always knows everything. One day she will make a great manager.
Patrik did several cycling races during this month and then together with Ivo and myself he rode the Prospera Valley Fondo. Guys did together the “short” distance – 50km and I challenged myself for 160km. It was really an awesome experience and a great challenge since it was the longest ride ever for Patrik and for myself. We both finished and had a great time.
The biggest event of the month was definitely Ivo’s Subaru Ironman in Whistler which took a place only four days ago. He was training so hard since last November and did amazing job during the race. I plan to make a separate post just about this weekend soon. All I can say is that we couldn’t be more proud of him!! All of us, kid included.
The weather has been very hot, I just wish that Ivo and I would have more time off from work so we could enjoy more days at the lake as a family together.
July was also a month of new experiences, not just on the sport’s field. Ivo and I tried lobster for the first time yesterday, it was so delicious. Kids chickened out and didn’t try but I’m glad the two of us did.
We are heading into another weekend full of sport – Patrik is going to have 3 cycling races within two days. I hope it won’t be as hot as it has been for the last couple of days though and that he will have a lot of fun!
I’m very grateful for our amazing and supporting friends who play a big role in our family. Thank you, Reb and Chris, Brian and Amanda, Janice and Eric, and Harmony!! We couldn’t call this place HOME without you!
July, you were a good one.
August, bring it on!
