Hello 2010!
Never tried adding video before lets see how it goes. The second video you just have to wait a bit and then you hear abbie announced. Clearly Steven Spielberg I am not....
It was homecoming week this past week. Mattawan has a parade, a huge parade, right before the football game and dance. Both Abbie and Ethan marched (rode) this year. Ethan walked with the scouts. And although this is not a very good picture, Abbie rode on the vette. She was the freshman homecoming queen! I have video that shows this better.
Did you all hear?
Happy New Year one and all!
We had a sporty type of weekend this last weekend before Christmas. Don't get me wrong, we did some other things too (i think?!) but sports was definitely a big part of it all. On snowy Saturday (which was icy/snowy Saturday by the time we left) we had Max's all relay swim meet. It was really fun for the kids! Max loved it. He swam in three relays. The first was a medley where he got to be the anchor member and swim the 50 freestyle. He swam it sooo well, he brought his team up from sixth place to third!!! Here he is ready to take offHis second relay was the backstroke relay where each child again swam 50 meters (the length of the pool and back). He was the anchor position again and was the only child able to use the board to dive off and then flip to his back. The other team members started off in the water (it was fine to do so and was an option for his age group). Here he is mid starting off. Swimming pictures are HARD. You just can't get close enough.His third relay (and by then it was nearing 8pm - swim meets take quite a while) was the breastroke relay. This was his least favorite, but he did a personal best time and was in the anchor position again. Not bad Max, not bad at all! The picture is of his backstroke.
Good morning!
How's the weather where you are?
