Three Rivers Festival

 Evelyn and I participated in the Three Rivers Festival parade this morning with Girls on the Run.  Our group was on the small side; several girls signed up to walk and then didn’t show up.  But the girls that did come were super sweet and had great attitudes despite how hot it was. They also completed the assignment we gave them - design a flag celebrating Allen County’s bicentennial. Bicentennial was the theme of the parade.  Evelyn’s flag. She wasn’t super excited about designing another flag as she had already created one in school for TV/media studio. I drew the cardinal.  Our small group. Evelyn was reading in the shade so she missed this picture. Fun photo with Icy from the FW Komets.  Walking the route.  We were stopped along the route for a few minutes so I quick snapped a picture of Evelyn. 

Basketball

 Evelyn’s summer rec basketball league ended tonight. Her team lost both tournament games. Overall Evelyn had a good experience. Her coaches were great. Playing with all boys is hard though and she did say she felt both part and not part of the team. She scored a basket in every game, so they did pass her the ball occasionally. Not sure we’d do this league again, but super proud Evelyn put herself out there and tried something new.
