On Saturday April 19th several of my project team members, their family and friends, and my lovely wife and sister gathered together at the Aquatics Center in Federal Way to support the Special Olympics Aquatic Event. We volunteered our time as timers, runners and marshals. We had a great time cheering for the athletes as they gave it their all in their respective races. Their energy and enthusiasm was contagious and their smiles warmed our hearts. 
Thanks goes out to all of those who volunteered and made this an event to remember. Kirsten made it even more memorable when she randomly asked "the cutest lifeguard ever" (her words) to snap a photo with her. Way to go sis!
Kirsten also grew attached to some of the athletes including the cute kid in the photo below. The little guy asked Kirsten if he had a chance at winning his respective race and she told him he did and then added: "Go get em!" The little guy took her words to heart and impressed us all with his speed and form, taking home the gold! What a fun event!
