Some of What We've Been Doing

Rachel is pretty hot on the soccer field this year. As you can see by "not-too-subtle elbow," she is pretty aggressive, but it means she's a high scorer, which is fun. Now Dave owes her many scoops of ice cream...She is also doing tumbling.

Michael participated in his first soccer experience. I put him in size 3 cleats for the first couple of game s on accident, normally he wears 13...and I couldn't figure out why he kept falling down. He just thought that's how cleats were supposed to feel. Whoops! He ended the fall season with two goals! More ice cream from dad.

Bella also played a great season of soccer. Unfortunately, they lost every game, but she's a pretty spunky player, manning various positions. She plays on the full size field with girls up to 14 years old, so it was pretty tough. She is also taking gymnastics with Rachel.

This is Tommy standing in our garage getting ready to head out for a mini-mission. Hopefully he'll look a little more excited in 5 years. It was a neat experience, though.
