The start of soccer and baseball

Ella is still taking gymnastics, but also decided she wanted to try soccer this season.  We were so lucky to have one of her sweet friend’s dad’s coaching a team, so she was able to get on the same team her longtime friends Addie Brown and Ella Perkins.  It also turned out that one of Jeff’s oldest friends also had a daughter on the team. 
Ella had never played before so we weren’t sure what to expect, but she blew us away at the first game.  She ran like the wind and had a fantastic time!

Hard to believe they used to be this small 3 years ago!

Austin had his first baseball game of the season at the same time.  His games go a bit longer, so we rushed over to his field to catch the rest.

This guy can steal bases like no one else!

Austin has since also joined a select team, so 5 days of the week are now consumed by sports for our family.  Jeff made the comment that this is exactly how he hoped our lives would be…consumed with sports.  I said, “yeah…I didn’t think that part through.”  None the less, the kids are happy and we are taking it day by day.  School and family first, with sports close behind. I think we have some very busy years ahead of usSmile
