Here we go again with another chapter of the VA Stone saga....
So we were in week two of the Austin Ridge Rapids swim team schedule - we have practices starting at 4PM and ending at 6:45 Mon thru Thurs and a little shorter (4-6) on Fri. Everyone from Brittany down to Hans is actively practicing with the team, we are still working with Daniel and then Brittany and Alli will not compete at the swim meets as they have decided that belly flopping off the starting blocks is not a good idea...
Mingled with those goings on we had soccer parties for Hans and Daniel, Orchestra concert for Allison, soccer practices and a tournament for Michael, youth activities, a piano recital for all and various other miscellaneous outings to play tennis or to the pool etc.
The Orchestra concert was lots of fun with a little craziness because this was the same day as the soccer party for Hans and we had to run home for the camera - just little speed bumps though.
All of the kids (who participated) did great in the mock swim meet we had on Saturday morning and then we had a great time listening to our sun bronzed swimmers tickle the ivories as well at the Recital. Daniel and a few siblings headed off to his soccer party and then the whole family headed south for the soccer tournament. Michael's team won their tournament game with Michael playing great defense and setting up their third of three goals. We capped everything off with a fun cookout at Aunt Merica's house on Saturday and are now, Sunday evening, thumbing this update on the Blackberry from the Stake Center before Britty and Allison sing in the choir for Seminary graduation.
Mylinda continues to work miracles with the pebbles and I am enjoying setting years of crazy maker wasteful processes aright at work. We also have a champion crawler in Gideon and a potty trained little Lucy who expands her vocabulary by hundreds of word a day it seems. Never a dull moment and always reminders of the many blessings we enjoy. Sure love you all and would love to have any of you visit whenever you would like!
