WOW what a FUN weekend I had this past weekend! I went to Springfield Missouri at Missouri State University to attend the State Summer Games. My brother and I compete in Track and Field. This year was my 2nd year to participate in state for track and field and my brother's first year to stay with team (like I usually do) and participate in Track and Field. We both really enjoyed it. So I been watching the weather for this weekend, and they were predicting thunderstorms for the whole weekend, and guess what, IT DID NOT RAIN! Hip Hip Horary! I was so glad it didn't. Overall, I got one silver in Running long jump, one bronze in 100 meter run and one gold medal each in 1x400 relay and in Softball throw. I was so excited about the results I received! Jesse got a gold, a silver and one bronze. I was very proud of me and happy for him as well! The dance was great! Jesse loved the dance, (felt a little sprinkle, but not much) This year at state, they add another activity and that was Kickball, I didn't attend that, but I heard it was a BIG hit! My brother attend the Bingo as well, and he won a shirt! :) I was in the Open ceremony with my fellow TLC (Training for life Campus) classmates, and I was also one of four other athletes (Out standing athlete winners) who held up a Special Olympics Flag. That was neat! Overall, the best part was to compete in my events and of course seeing my friends around Missouri I haven't seen in awhile. Thank you Special Olympics Missouri for another great State competition! Below you will see pic that will confirm the FUN my brother and I had!
