Congrats to Josh and the US men for taking bronze on Sunday. They made a great push, passing others after a slow start and just barely missed the silver. The US men may not have defended their gold this time, but the women's 8 took gold for the first time since 1984, so congrats to them too.
In the picture below Josh is the tall shaggy one 3rd from the right. Coincidentally, he's the tall shaggy one standing 3rd from the right in the first picture of my last post about rowing (here).
It's fun watching for someone you know. 4 years ago, in Athens, the US men not only took gold, but set the world record as well. Travis knew someone on that boat too! Joey Hansen was a year ahead of Travis so they were never in the same boat, but again it was fun for him knowing someone.
I met Travis in Institute at Oregon State University in 2001 and we were married Aug 2002. We have 3 boys, Avery, Carson and Emmett. I love photography and run a business, 
Travis is a dentist at 
Avery was born in Dec 2004 and is now 7 and almost a 2st grader. He loves being a big brother to Carson and Emmett.
Carson was born in March of 2007 and is now 5 years old.
Emmett was born in September of 2008 and is now almost 4 years old.
