Summer camp

 This was the week of summer day camp. Evelyn had river camp at Shoaff park which is right on the St Jospeh river. She learned about river ecology and how to be a good steward of the rivers. She got to fish, canoe and kayak. There were also lots of water games because it was very hot and humid all week. 


Jameson had splash camp at the same park, but just in the afternoon. So we dropped off Evelyn at 9 and had until 1 to do fun stuff. On Monday we went to Tim Hortons for coffee and donuts. 


Tuesday we went blackberry picking. Wednesday and Thursday we didn’t have a special activity, just extra screen time. Today we planned to play tennis but it stormed. 



Jameson had fun at his camp too. They played in the splash pad, went down a slip n slide, had water balloon fights, all water related fun. He did not want his picture taken on his first day of camp.

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.
