Busy Month

Well, it's been a busy few weeks. We had 4 boys in soccer, 2 boys in scouts, 1 girl in track, 1 girl and 1 Mom (me) in Young Women's. Whoo....the time has come to an end, it's been crazy but fun!! Some highlights....Jordan loved his soccer team....the second one....the first one he was so unimpressed with because of their rudeness and swearing that he wanted to quit. But once we changed his team he loved it. I was very impressed with his desire to be in a good environment! Go Jordan!! Jordan is also in a chess tournament...and doing very well...obviously he doesn't take after his mother over this one! But I am very proud of him!

Brock lost his last soccer game but won in the sportsmans area!! He was kicking the ball in the middle of a group of boys and one tripped and fell, the ball landed right in front of Brock. I was (as a good soccer mom does) yelling...get the ball!! get the ball!!! He literally stepped around the ball and gave the fallen boy (from the other team) his hand and helped him up. Then he followed the boy asking are you allright, are you allright...while the boy was trying to go get the ball!! I was crying...I figured...ok...Brock will never be a football player (can you imagine...Did I hit you too hard...are you ok?...I am so sorry!) but he will be a caring guy...who needs football player sons anyway! :) Needless to say it was a proud Mom moment.



Tristan made North End in track...don't ask I guess it is like half district or something. She trained to be a sprinter and ran the mile at one meet just for fun because she hadn't qualified in anything else that meet. Her time was good enough to make North End and so she had a whole two days to train! She ran the mile in 6 minutes 49 seconds...not quite good enough to make district but she did get 12th place out of 26 and she won her heat. Her coach told her he was excited to see her next year and train her for distance and he figured he could get her to district!!! Go Tristan!! I was, of course, crying...it made me proud to see her run her little heart out.


The twins played soccer and did a great job!! It was fun to watch them play soccer for the first time ever! They both did a great job. It has been a fun couple of months but very, very busy!!!
