Soccer has been going well, and the season is almost over. Griff has learned a lot and is improving each game. One Saturday was Family Fun Day/Picture day. I don't know why every sporting organization doesn't do this. Instead of Games on picture day, they just had activities for families and free hot dogs/chips and sodas. The kids had a great time and there was no stress to make it to a game.
We took a break from Soccer one Saturday so Griff and Miles could participate in a District wide track meet. One of the local high school's track team put it on for a fundraiser. It was open to all 4th, 5th, and 6th graders. Griff loves to run and holds the title of "fastest kid" in his class, so he wanted to see how he did. I love how he welcomes challenges and tries new things.
Miles got talked into participating at the last minute and was a rock star in the mile run. He ran the entire time, beating his record by a whole 2 minutes. His class runs every morning, so he's getting into great shape. He also did the Softball throw, and the 50 M race. He threw the SB pretty far, I guess all the time tossing the Football out front is paying off.
Griff did the 400 M, the 100 M, and the Softball throw. He came in 6th for the 100 M, and rocked the 400 M coming in 5th. It was so awesome to see him run his little heart out. It was such a well attended event and Miles and Griff had a great day. Way to go boys!
