The Hamilton's have been a part of my life since before I can even remember. So when Alexa, the rockstar swimmer from Maryland, informed us back in June that the ACC championship was in Atlanta we put it in our calendar.
Early Saturday morning we loaded up the new Postma family Buick (name still TBD) for the 2 hour car trip. But of course we hit construction and traffic and missed Alexa's race! Argh! Jack was so impressed with the Georgia Tech aquatic center, he kept looking at us like "you brought my suit right?". Maybe he will surprise everyone and not do the basketball/baseball/football route but be the next Michael Phelps:)
It was so much fun to see the familar faces! We got to spend some time with Alexa at the hotel before she had to go back and rest for the nights events. Greg & Barb treated us to a great lunch, luckily we got to sit outside so I didn't feel quite so bad about Jack's mess. Jack was in love with Barb!
Alexa did great! She is one dedicated athlete that is for sure. Amazes me!

Great Saturday with awesome family friends and happy to report the Buick is a wonderful road trip car:)
