Extra Pictures to Share

No photos again (darn it) but I have to brag about my boys' soccer games this weekend. The coolest moment in Kevin's game was when he broke through the defense at midfield and ran down the field with 3 kids hot on his heels. He kept the ball perfectly under control and took a shot over the goalies head and to the left. I really don't think he was expecting that at all beause he was crouched down low ready to pounce to either side. Kevin played goalie the second half and fended off all shots. His team won 2-1.

Cameron's team actually played together as a team for once and also unofficially won their game (the league doesn't keep score). Something in Cameron snapped last week when he broke out of the pack and dribbled down the field and around a couple of kids to take a shot at the goal. Until that day he usually either stepped on the ball or tripped over it when he tried to dribble while running. This weekend he dribbled up and down the field and around all the players like he's been doing it for years. He even scored 5 times! To top it off he made a dramatic save by sliding into the ball to keep it out of his goal right near the end of the game. His team "won" 12-11.

Ok, enough bragging. Here are some miscellaneous pictures that I took recently. Nothing special but some of you might like them.




This balloon flew right over our heads at a recent soccer game.






These pictures were taken from our upstairs porch a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately, the full moon rose too far north this month to be able to crop the houses out of the view.

What a gorgeous view you have! It looks like it could be on a calendar or something. We love seeing the pictures of the boys and staying "connected" with you guys.
