dbw day 6 - picture this

Today's Prompt: With a nod to the Diabetes 365 project, let’s grab our cameras again and share some more d-related pictures.

We're spending the weekend in a town a few hours north of where we live attending a soccer tournament. Here's what our day looked like.

 

We always pack backups of our diabetes supplies. And backups of our backups. Hilariously, we forgot to get the extra insulin out of the fridge when we left town yesterday. Luckily, another soccer mom that lives in our neighborhood was driving up this morning, so we asked her to stop by our house and pick it up on her way here today. I actually found it strangely comforting that we left the insulin behind. It makes me feel like diabetes is just along for the ride, and we can forget about it for a moment just as easily as we might forget to pack our chairs (which we also did). Go us!

 

Free pancake breakfast anyone? Nothing like starting the day off with a bit of a SWAG (it was thinner than the ones we make at home, so we guessed 19 carbs). L asked a hotel employee if they had any sugar-free syrup, and I was sure he'd say no, but they had some in a cabinet under the pancake maker. Score!

8:30 am and ready to hit the field for the first of three games this weekend.

 

In between games we had a cook out and snapped some team photos.

 

We brought brownies and I cut them into proper serving sizes and noted the carb info.

 

As we were leaving, we saw this on the back of someone else's minivan. It made me smile to think there might be another member of our 'club' out there on the field somewhere. In fact, with 299 other teams at the tournament this weekend, there's probably more than one.
