Slam Dunk!

We had our spring picnic at church yesterday. So much fun. Porter took the first turn in the dunking booth. Thank goodness Wendy came to put him in the tank! Callie got him too, with a little help.

Non-Contact Sport





Leftie?

 
  


Spring Soccer

The team formerly known as 'The Paper Plates' might have gotten their mojo back. Or at least they have located their competitive spirit. After 3 games, the River City Rangers are 2-0-1. Callie scored a monster goal in the upper corner in the first game, missed the second game (tie), and had 3-4 shots on goal from midfield in the last outing, a 2-1 win.

We travel to Temple to play next weekend which will be fun for Callie to have grandparents in attendance at her game.

Easter

Spent a lovely Easter weekend with Porter's family. Bill and Paula came to town. We enjoyed Sunday church service together, then Wendy and Tosha treated us to an Easter feast at their house.

Christmas Show

Since Madden's spring show is right around the corner, I figure it might be time to post these photos from the Christmas show. Note the facial expression of Madden's friend Erin on the far right of the splits photo: priceless! Love these girls.

Soccer Game

Soccer Game

by Callie Wilson
 
Sun blazing on sweaty faces.
Parents yell and cheer, fists in the air.
Children clash to and fro
around the field
each one hoping to make one shot.
Heads pounding,
hearts beating,
teammates tumbling, fumbling
to demolish the ball.
Eyes squint from the hot rays of the sun.
The sun blinds brothers playing football
in the pasture.
The coach yells, encouraging
a goal.
But then luckily, zip,
dash,
pounce,
boom.
Goal for our team.

Fame!

All this fame in the same week. Pretty remarkable, huh? Like mama like daughter.
