I’m trying to write about some of the things we did when we got EVERYONE home during the quarantine, but I’m getting overwhelmed with too many pictures. So here’s a separate post about one night when we rode bikes through the slanted evening sun (back when it wasn’t cook-an-egg-on-the-sidewalk type…

I’m going back to pre-corona for a minute here, because gosh, there’s still a whole lot to document from “B.C.” And right up there on that list is pickleball. Ha! But really, Dave is so in love with this game. Such a good outlet for him. Such good friends to…

I have mentioned that Claire is playing volleyball pretty much non-stop around here, but I haven’t had a chance to post many pictures yet. And I may as well get to work on that since we’re already over half-way through the season! Claire has the best of both worlds in…

Let’s talk about Claire. And junior high. Because we’ve been spending a lot of time over there lately.   And because look at that smile. We just wrapped up the junior high soccer season. It was a wing-dinger, I’ll tell you that! (That’s Claire’s tumbling coach who coaches all these…

Question:  Who wouldn’t want to win a football game with this gigantic smile cheering you on from the sidelines? Ha! I love watching this girl out there cheering her heart out. Lucy on the other hand, could take it or leave it most of the time. Good thing she love…

Well, it looks like we just continue to diversify our sports around here.   We fell head-over-heels in love with volleyball with Max.  And tennis has always had our hearts.  Now we’re diving into cheer with Grace and on to some serious soccer with Claire. I haven’t talked about the…

Let’s begin where I left off in “part 1” (back HERE)…the end of the season and on to doubles.   Elle and Emma (her doubles partner) after the last season game: Oh man I love these girls. They’ve been playing together since Elle was a sophomore and Emma was a…

Yep, she did it again. This girl wrapped up tennis season, then went ahead and made the high school cheer team: She was so scared for try-outs. There are some pretty amazing tumblers and dancers who try out. But that’s what I love about Grace.  She doesn’t let the scariness…

Ok, so I’m going to have to do this whole tennis season wrap-up dealio in two sections because there are too many thoughts and heart-strings attached.  I can’t possibly wrap up a whole four years of Elle playing high school tennis in one measly post.  So bear with me.  …

Claire is head-over-heels in love with soccer right now.   She just finished a pretty fun season. She plays with great friends… …and gets to play against some good friends as well 🙂 The night games were so fun to watch. With my second child graduating from high school in…
