Weekend Wrap-up

Rain...lots of rain and cold. I think that sums up the weekend, no? We had one kid at a football game in the torrential rain friday evening. Good news, he had the good sense to get out of it and head for the nearest coffee shop AND he let us know he was there. We went and got him, timed it right because the flash flood warnings went off and it wasn't a false alarm. Crazy!

Saturday, we had some friends over for dinner and we had such a great time, there are no photos. It was so much fun to sit around and reminisce about the past...most of us have known each other for more than 15 years! Even Diego had a great time playing with the younger kids.

Sunday, was baseball and hockey day. I have to say is amazing to watch the boys play especially when they have wonderful coaches that keep the games fun and the team is having a blast on the field/ice. Jori has never played 1st base and since everyone is rotating, he got to play 1st...even his teammates asked "Have you ever played 1st before?" LOL!

And Darin who plays defense mostly scored a goal and then said to us, "I juked 2 players and was falling over not looking when I took the shot. I don't think the goalie was expecting it!" To put it into perspective, this is only his 5th year playing and last season he scored a total of 3 goals, the entire season!

The love and enjoyment they have for the game is what makes it all worthwhile, right fellow parents?
