My life is full of two things and two people: everything baby and everything fitness.
We took a break from our regular routines and headed over to a fun competition on the other side of town. I played the role of photographer and baby tamer and Kevin played the athlete. We are trying to incorporate fun events throughout the year to make working out more fun and purposeful.
Here's some shots of Kevin at the Toro Olympic Weight Lifting Open at Mesa Mountain View High School... I'm not really sure where the mountains were to view, but he finished first in his division! Way to represent Team Cherrick!
Getting ready.
Weight in the heels... drive through the floor...
Clean...
and Jerk. - 264 lbs
By the way, while each athlete attempts his or her lift, the gym gets completely quiet. Reagan was a perfect angel - hardly a peep :-) - and by far the youngest cheerleader in the gym! How did we get so lucky?
Great job, congrats Kevin!

Great Work! Nice straight back! Awesome! These 4 photos would make a super "how-to" poster! Name it:
"How to do it & How NOT to get hurt doing it!"
Love you bunches!
BTW: LaCrosse was being played this a.m. in the 38 degree rain on the Cirque playfields! UGH!
