Veni, Vidi, Vici

Although I know that it probably sounds a bit ridiculous, "conquer" and "dominate" are really the only words to describe a meet in which basically every competitor from The Refuge takes first place and breaking four state records and two APA world records along the way.  The men that Lee lifts with are committed to their sport and unbelievably good at what they do.  We have reached the point where we consider these guys to a part of our family.  They are tremendously good people, treat the girls and I like gold and have made Lee reach down deep and find strength that he didn't know he had.  Great work Brian, Adam, Nick, Matt and Lee - so proud of you guys!  Below are shots of the members of Team Refuge and a video that I put together.

The girls don't have team t-shirts like the rest of us, so I had some hair bling made for them.
