Soccer, gymnastics, and a day at the beach…

"The ribbons are the whole point."
-Isla

James has had his second soccer game this weekend.  His team, being new, should have been put in one of the lower divisions.  However, due to a mix up, they were put in the top division.  Basically this means every game this season will be against much more experienced teams.  That didn’t stop James from getting out on the field with a “I think we can still win” attitude, and he played his best even though they were playing a tough opponent.  He’s getting better every game.

Isla’s first meet was this weekend and she was excited about it.  With coach Ashlyn along for support, Isla performed all of her routines with confidence.  She was towards the top of her team in her first meet, which is great.  The main thing is that Isla had fun and is already looking forward to her next meet.

The kids have been working hard at school and sports so we took the afternoon off on Sunday to go to the lake.  They were limiting access due to COVID so we had a section of beach to ourselves.  The kids got to build sandcastles, swim in the water, bury their siblings, and play on the playground.  It was a fun outing, we might go back and do some camping in one of these upcoming weekends.
