"What good does it do to be afraid? It doesn't help anything. You better try and figure out what's happening and correct it."
-Chuck Yeager
It was time for another meet this weekend, this time in Denton at the Texas Women’s University campus. I’ll be honest and say it wasn’t Isla’s best meet. It happens in gymnastics, and all can do is learn from your mistakes and keep a positive outlook for the next meet. Isla took the falls in stride and she was even able to laugh at herself afterwards. That’s something many people can’t do and we hope she keeps that attitude as she gets older.
The 6th grade held a carwash fundraiser for a day camp and Ashlyn joined for a shift to help out. We had to visit of course, especially since the van was in need of a good wash. James had fun watching his older sister work out in the heat while he stayed inside with the air conditioning.
James has 4 more soccer games in the season, and we’re all happy that the weather is finally cooling off a bit. James is now shifting his sights from soccer to hockey, but he’ll still play out the rest of the season with the team since he committed when he joined.
