Wow! Talk about being behind! Will try my best in the days ahead to bring you up to speed. Today we're starting with the sporting events the kids participated in this past spring.
Jeziah played rec soccer for 5 weeks, well it ran for 5 weeks, but he only played 3 because of our schedule conflicts. This is cheap entertainment for kids who don't play league soccer. He absolutely loved it, even though it was hardly competitive enough for him. That is him coming for you in the muscle shirt and shorts. (The last game, the only game where I had a camera, was in the gym because of rain, so I ended up with crummy pictures)
This year league soccer came to MacGregor. We had once said, if it came to MacGregor, we would consider allowing the kids to play. Raquel wasn't interested, and Dexter didn't have to be convinced otherwise. Half their games were away, and half were at home. We ended up with quite a few cancellations because of rain, and froze through the rest. The last two games were the best! It ended up that some of his games were in Portage the same night as swimming lessons, so that part worked out really well. But it still was exhausting to be driving kids everywhere! Here Dexter has the ball. I acutally got some great continuous shots from this play, but with dial up, it just takes too long to show them all to you!
The very proud soccer player!
Jeziah took swimming lessons as his main sport this past spring. He did amazing. He went from fearing the water to absolutely loving it. He was all proud of himself when he went down the waterslide with no teacher to catch him. Here makes the jump (the boy beside him has the same swimming trunks!)
Raquel did not want to play soccer, so we allowed her to continue in swimming lessons. She loves taking swimming lessons and does well in the water.
