Alex and Ryan have begun their first season of soccer. They are both so cute out there. Ryan, while timid, gets into the play more. He tries hard and has a great time. I am so proud of him for giving it his all and having fun while doing it. Alex enjoys playing too. Sitting on the sidelines, talking to people, doing some sort of Tai Chi, and going after the ball are all things he likes to do on the field. He loves being part of the team and when he wants to go after the ball, he goes after it until he falls down (which everyone does in this age group). Katie wishes she could play. She probably would do really well, but she would also be the smallest kid out there and I dont think Lori or I are ready to handle her out there.
Easter was on Sunday and it was the first time in a while we all sat together in service. Usually Alex and Katie stay in extended care, but we decided to keep them with us and it was a real blessing. We then went to Nana and Grandpa's house and had dinner with them and Aunt Christy. The rain came in the morning but the easter bunny found a way to hide eggs outside and the kids had a blast. Even Butchie found an egg!
Anyway, soccer goes on for a few more weeks. I'll even get a chance to coach a week and I cant wait. Feels good to be back on the field.

Important Team meetingI would be remiss if I didn't mention that Ryan won the Kindergarten 1st prize for his drawing of what Easter means to him. It made the Friday newspaper!!!! I am not at all biased, but I think his was the best drawing even better than 1st and 2nd grade!!!
