a swimming victory

katrice and her buddy wade
after katrice's pace maker was put in, her cardiologist told us that she could require oxygen indefinitely. that news brought my sister in law to tears. the thought of katrice never being able to swim was more than liz could bear. these experiences made katrice's latest special olympics victory even sweeter. her bus driver, favorite cousin, favorite sister, and mom turned out to watch her win the bronze. as usual, tiff provided me with awesome pictures that made not being there to cheer her on in person suck a little less.

goooooo tweece!

That is so great! Go Katrice! Isn't it great that she will do it anyways despite what everyone says she can't do.

You know that the favorite status just depends on who has made her potatoes most recently. :)
