End of School Year Crazies

For Memorial Day, Dan took Evelyn and a bunch of her friends on a hike up Saddle Mountain.  They had great weather for hiking, but less than stellar for views at least some of the time.  :)  They all had a great time together!   

The rest of the week was busy with water polo and school and work.  Evelyn had her end of year band concert on Wednesday evening - which also happened to be the same day as her Track banquet and my OHSWP spring coaches meeting.  So Dan and David and I went with Evelyn to her banquet, then Dan took David home and I went into the school to sit in the meeting (thankfully I was able to be there by phone) and then went into the concert.  Evelyn did amazing!  Their band really is incredible and it's so much fun to watch her do something she loves so much!  They all put in so much hard work this year and it has paid off!!  

This weekend was the Newberg Summer Kick off tournament.  Aaron was playing there with the 18U Newberg Team and David and Paxton played their first tournament with the 11U Thills team.  It was so fun watching and coaching the little kids!  It was also nice to get to talk to their parents some!  Paxton jumped in with lots of enthusiasm and did a great job!  David was a bit reluctant - it was a little deep for him - he could touch, but barely.  He finally tried a little bit - then he tried playing goalie for a bit.  Coach Blake was really great with him - helping him and encouraging him.  The other players were also really supportive!  

He claimed that he wasn't tired and that he got enough sleep, but he crashed in the car on the way home.  :) Maybe letting him sleepover at Paxton's before the game was a bad idea.....  

Sunday afternoon, David wanted to go on a walk, so Anna and I took him out on a walk at one of the local nature parks.  He loved looking at the flowers!
