Sports and stuff

Just wanted to update our family athletic program, because every body wants to know...

Emma: Softball - Had four hits last night, while playing all over the field...including an exciting stint at catcher, which was a first. Her team shows improvement every game, and the other teams are getting irritated playing them. Such is the curse of greatness.

Matt: Soccer - Leads his team as the goalie, and enjoys eating dirt diving for the ball. Plays more in goal than out now, due to this fearless streak. Makes us nervous when he gets aggressive on a goal scorer, but he smiles and loves it. Only has one game left, and the season will close.

Allie: Softball - Has developed into a very good hitter. While most of the girls hit off the tee, she continues to hit off the pitching machine. Plays the field wherever the coach asks her too, and is learning not to pick flowers while she plays.

Mase: Soccer - While his older brother defends the goal, Mason scores on it. Using his speed and quickness, he scores quite often. Other coaches have asked that he only plays defense, cause their tired of defending him. Two games left.

Leia (Cat): Killing - The cat has perfected her bird killing, which now at least makes her useful. We don't see her much, but do notice the carnage.

Brooklyn (Dog): Eating dead stuff - The dog has been enjoying the dead birds she finds in the yard (see Cat). If it stinks or is oozing something, Brook will eat it. She always enjoys playing hide and seek with her tail. Her buddy Jackson, in the neighbors yard, keeps things interesting and is her best buddy.

Michele: Shopping - Shopping is a sport. If you don't believe it, you have never shopped with Michele. She is working on keeping her average up and scurrying about finding every sale and Target store within 500 miles.

Ben: Softball - The team has only been mercied once in three games. Using cat like reflexes and his famous speed he continues to impress legions of fans while pitching with incredible accuracy. Oh yeah, and he hit the fence on the fly batting, but sadly only managed a single.

We will update as soon as a child is named an All-American, or Brooklyn eats something really nasty.

See ya.
