Family arrived today for the weekend, sisters, nieces, nephews all gathering for our birthday, anniversary and engagement celebration. So wonderful to be all together! We spent the afternoon stewing in the pool, snacking, visiting and then followed it with a raucous dinner at Whiskey Hill.
Fortunately, we made it home in time to watch Michael Phelps win his 22nd gold medal in the 200 IM. He took it by over two body lengths while Lochte placed fifth. Then he had just 37 minutes to collect his medal, cool down and get ready to qualify for the 100 fly.
Ryan Murphy collected a gold in the 200 M backstroke and Simone Manuel won gold in the 100 M freestyle. And perhaps most significant, Simone Biles won gold and Aly Raisman won silver for the overall gymnastics championship. It was another thrilling night!
In Canada, Evan has won four medals this week at the IGLA games in Edmonton. He won gold in the 400 Medley Relay, bronze in the 50 free, bronze in the 100 fly and silver in the 200 free. This is in the 35-39 age group.
