Sports Star

Well, before I tell you about soccer, I should let you know that I'm taking a break from baseball. I had so much fun and might try it again, but for now I'll take a shot at soccer.

Baseball Stars!

The parents in my class at school -- well, my old class since a lot of the kids are moved up now -- put together an indoor soccer team with Play for Sport who does sports with us at school. It's a pretty big commitment between practice during the week and games on the weekend, but I told my parents I really wanted to try it.

Stretching before practice

Mommy says she'll never forget the first game. It's indoor soccer, the first game, there were four crying kids being led by Coach Dave around the field while there were six crying kids sitting on the sidelines. Why were we all crying? Well, the other team wasn't sharing the ball; we couldn't play with the ball we wanted (ie the pink/yellow/green/Sponge Ball one); there was only one ball on the field ... the list goes on. I am proud to announce that I was the first to kick off the game, I did score the first game, and I did end up having fun, but we -- or rather Mommy -- decided to take a break from the team sports for now.

Culture Day

We had culture day again at school (remember It's a Small World last year?), and we made-do with the "asian-y" clothes we had already.

Asian-y, right?

Artistes!

I love, love, love drawing, painting, writing, and anything that showcases my imagination and artistic side. Luckily for me, Gavin's willing to participate as well, even if his attention span isn't nearly as long as mine.

Austin Trip

Mommy and her college friends have FINALLY been able to get their families together for a group vacation. They decided to rent a house together off the lake in Austin, and to make it even more special, this is the exact same house Mommy wanted to rent ten years ago when she was looking at houses for her wedding! But before we actually got to the house, first we had to get there. This was the first time Mommy attempted a longer drive with us kids by herself, and we did great ...

Stopping by to see the Adairs

After the weekend at the house, we made the necessary trip to see James and Tessa (of course we can't come to Austin without seeing them!).
