He trained with his co-workers for a little over a month, and finally racing day came! Thad and I were excited to see Dad compete along with some of the wonderful people we have gotten to know over the past year with his employment at the Financial Accounting Foundation.
There was down time before and in between races, so Thad was easily able to find ways to entertain himself.
The race took place at this beautiful river down the street from our house.
Brian's team is in the black jerseys.
Brian is second from the front of the boat with the blue shirt.
Their pre-race run was really good, but they got a rough start on their sprint and ended up losing their race.
They had lots of fun though and looked great doing it!!
Here is the 4 man team from the FAF rowing hard!
Thad was in rock heaven once he discovered these...now how do I get him to NOT throw these at the boats?!

These are some of Brian's great friends he made at FASB. It was such a fun opportunity to meet these wonderful guys. We wish them all the luck in the world with their future endeavors.

So when I think of rowing. My first thoughts go to the bachelorette this season when all the guys had to do like a chinese rowing race deal :) Looks like fun. I hope you let the little guy throw a few rocks ;-)
That is a really fun experience! I'm glad you guys are doing new things out there, seriously awesome.
laughing that you just wrote girl for the girl in the pic. haha
Crew was huge in my high school. I got to Utah for college and couldn't believe people didn't have crew teams there! Then I realized there are no bodies of water. Haha.
