E U R O P E A N S this weekend

It's been a busy week of field trips and sports. It's about to get a little more crazy. The European Championships are this weekend for track. Exciting days that will likely be stressful for this mama watching her little cubs compete.
Justin will be in the pressure cooker as the favorite in disc. He's thrown the farthest of any kid in Europe this season at 141 feet 9 inches.

Last year, he received the silver metal in disc with a throw of 128 feet four inches. He's definitely improved!

This weekend- he definitely wants a gold metal placed around his neck.

Improving every day, he'd love to metal in shot as well- an event he qualified for last year, but didn't place.

With Ty qualifying for both the high and low hurdles, it will be exciting to see how well he does.

He didn't qualify for either event last year, so he's just happy to be a part of the big show.

Here's the preview article in stars and stripes. They published this great picture above of Justin.
