Plebe Summer: Fun OUT of the sun!

This week USNA held a track meet for the plebe class - INSIDE! We don't have many details other than what you can see. The plebes rooted for their company's competitors, and it was so good to see the cheering, camaraderie, and smiles.

We'll put the pictures showing Steven first and then include a few others for you to enjoy and see what was happening at the Yard :-) Be sure to read to the bottom of the post!


You can see Steven with his company in these two shots



This is also M company - having a great time!



Wow - things are getting down right fun over there with this company



It was great to see that even those running (yes, more running) were having fun!




There was even pole vaulting




Aren't you just happy for these guys?!?



FINALLY.....just in case you missed our FAVORITE runner
(Thank you to Chrissey for finding this picture on FB!)



And if you want to see why there is so much cheering and smiling at the track meet, 
just remember that this is who Steven is usually running with...The enlisted leader that works with M Company is a former Parris Island drill instructor. Steven isn't in this picture, but this is M Company - and we can all see why they're not normally smiling.




Thank you all for supporting Steven and praying for him and the other plebes!

Plebe Summer Day 11

 No pictures today, but we did get to talk to Steven! He had a very short window of time to use his phone, and unfortunately the call got dropped twice during our short time to talk.

It seems this is the place where they get the most attention from the detailers. *They've done a lot of "rack races." We're not sure what this means but we think they're tests to see how fast they can make their beds.  *They are starting the sports period this week. He plans to try ultimate frisbee and see how that goes. *He is able to go to the chapel on Sunday mornings (we think we heard there were donuts!), and he also went to the gospel service on Friday evening. *The platoons are doing a rotation through the vario...

Plebe Summer: Pool time

 Have you been able to spend some time in the pool this summer? Steven has :-) (Thank you to Kurt who found this picture!) We don't know if this is the 5 or 7.5 meter platform, but either way, the upperclassmen are ready to help the platoons take the plunge! They'll have to jump off the 10m platform in an upcoming year at USNA. Making the climb up to the platform (Steven is not pictured) Here is Steven having fun watching platoon mates make the jump! (Thank you again for Kurt and his eagle eye spotting Steven) Happy swimming, everyone!
