Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving in Decatur.  Meredith and Jeremy came up from Louisiana so we took lots of family pictures.


The weather was perfect on Thursday.  


Evelyn and Jameson were excited to play soccer, frisbee, and hide and seek with Uncle Jeremy (who is probably hiding somewhere in the backyard).


Evelyn got to climb a tree with Aunt Meredith and Aunt Katherine.


Jameson took a pretend nap on the floor with Aunt Katherine.


Evelyn played Outfoxed with Mimi, Uncle Jeremy, and Aunt Katherine.


And Jameson narrowly escaped a trip to the urgent care.  He and Evelyn received umbrellas as a gift from my Aunt Martha.  It rained Friday afternoon so Nate took them outside for a walk to use the new umbrellas.  Jameson started running to catch up with Evelyn, tripped, and smacked his head on the pavement.  Thankfully everything seemed to look worse than it actually was.

City champs

 Cross country season is officially over. Last night was city finals and Blackhawk girls finished first. We took 1st, 3rd, 5th, 8th and 10th place. Evelyn ran 14:56, so about 10 seconds off her PR.  She was 32nd overall out of 64 girls.  Her place counted for her team which she was happy about. The boys did good too and finished in second place overall. 

Last weekend

 Last weekend was a busy one. I had the Fort4Fitness, Evelyn had a cross country invitational in Huntington and Jameson had two soccer games in Middlebury. All on Saturday! Friday I spent all afternoon at the F4F expo. The weather was lovely so that was nice. When it was busy, the time passed quickly. When it was slow, there were still enough people that I wasn’t totally bored.  Evelyn had a great run and PR’ed with at time of 14:40.  It was an early morning for them as she had to be at the meet by 8:40. But that was better for us since Jameson’s games were into the afternoon.  I had a decent half marathon. I ran 2:10:30 which is slower than I’d like but I’ve also been dealing with a nagging right knee problem. So I honestly was thankful I could run and run the race without much discomfort.  I was fast enough to get home, shower and eat lunch before we left for soccer. Jameson’s team won the first game 0-1 and tied the second 1-1. He scored both the goals. ...

Futsal

 It’s futsal season. Jameson had his first game tonight. It’s all just intra club fun meant to help the players develop and practice over the winter. Parents only have to help during games with subbing but we also got Evelyn to help run the scoreboard.
