The Mighty M Family

This time, she has her jersey.  Coach might have forgot them the first game.

Hannah had her first soccer game over the weekend.  For her age group a “game” basically means 4 mini games with 4 different teams.  We were the “away” team, which meant every 10 minutes we rotated in a circle to the next field.  It was hot and sunny and there are tons of games going on all at once – soccer everywhere you look! This is the view from the soccer fields:

and that means soccer season! Our first season of soccer kicked off last night.  Hannah was so excited to play and see some friends! The age difference between these 2 girls is 4 days.  Hannah is younger.  And taller.  I am going to try to get Eli on a team too…he is ready to play!

A few weekends ago my husband thought it would be fun and challenging to commemorate turning 40 by doing a half iron man race.  This breaks down as follows: Swim: 1.2 miles Bike: 56 miles Run: 13.1 miles I am pretty sure that when I turn 40 I will think of a much more fun and far less taxing way to commemorate the occasion.  But that’s just me. I drove down after the race started, and arrived at some point during his bike ride.  So the first glimpse I had of him was when he came in to the bike area to transition to the run. He was still smiling.  And he was still moving! And saw him again about halfway through the run. Of course he had to stop briefly for his adoring fans. And then, 70.3 miles  and about 6.5 hours later, he finished! We are so proud of you!!

Here are some pictures from Hannah’s first basketball game a couple weeks ago.  If you haven’t watched a bunch of little kids play a basketball game you must add it to your to do list!
