Viking Cheer!
Millie loved her cheer camp and then cheering at the highschool game! We all went to watch and it was quite fun! Millie loved when the older girls lifted her up.

20th Anniversary!
Ben and I have been married for 20 years!! We have the perfect love story. All of our years have been good ones. We have been so blessed and are both moving forward. I love it. I love him. . . I got Flowers and the cutest heart necklace locket 🙂 I bought us matching hoodies. Ben of course wanted to go big but I convinced him that cruises to Greece and trips to Belize were more than sufficient! We had a good day and I took Packer to get his LICENSE! After that Ben and I left for the rest of the day and the kids took Millie to her swim team party!
Ben and I went to the movie! and then to dinner and then to another movie! Double Feature. I can’t remember the last time we did that.
My favorite part of the day was at the theater when I said that the only thing that would make this better is a box of Junior Mints and then BOOM, Ben pulls them out of his pocket! Amazing. 20 years in and we are in sinc – it was extra amazing because it’s not like we always go to the movie and I always get them – It was just the perfect timing, perfect anniversary gift.
Final Swim Meet!
We came straight home Friday so that Millie could be ready for the swim team finals… she did GOOD. A little hard when you don’t swim the whole week before 🙂 But her relay team did well and she did pretty good in her individuals as well!
Another Swim Meet!
Summer Sales and Activity Days
Millie and Maren sold cookies and treats and drinks and stuffed animals!! Tiago and Ray and all of us went to Bro Wise’s house for a campfire dinner 🙂
Swim Meet!
Millie doing her thing. She’s not the fastest and not the slowest. She does pretty good at all the strokes.
Soccer Tryouts
The week of soccer tryouts is my worst. I had to detach myself and just trust that everything will work out and the teams will be made and life will go on. They run around and wear themselves out and try to show up for all the coaches and all the teams. . .
Tiago had his team – didn’t make the first team but made the second easily. He is a star out there and LOVES the game – Surf with Jake McKay.
Millie and I decided to do our Rec team one more season 🙂
Ray still has his AA team with Ben which has been wonderful. We tried to go Club but that didn’t happen so 1 more year.
Rose went to all of the tryouts but Surf ended up not having her team from last year 🙁 Avalanche and La Roca gave her offers though. She chose La Roca with Ellie and Gentry. I think it will be a South A team.
Cali also did all the tryouts. When it came down to it Brian didn’t offer her a spot on their Celtic team. He cut about 5 of them and kept a small roster. Cali was devestated cause she LOVES that team. She accepted a D1 offer with La Roca!
So, we survived another year! We are all playing soccer and we will jump into this new season!
OK – Now it’s over…
Last game for Tiago in Rec – Cheeto’s was so much fun. Ben has been such a good coach for these little guys. And Cali, Anna, and Mia have had such a great soccer season. Cali loves her team and has made fun friendships and they are playing good soccer too
End of May = End of Soccer
goal!
