Alyssa Was Very Busy

Alyssa decided to run track and field at school in the spring. She really enjoyed it, but it took a lot of time. She had practice until 4:15 Tuesday-Friday, plus 6 different track meets from the end of March through the beginning of May. Her best event was probably the 800M, but her favorite event was the 4X400M

Then, on top of track, she also wanted to play spring soccer with the city. I think she liked her team and she had 1 friend on the team that she has played with the past 3 or 4 years. Her coach held 2 hour weekly practices on top of the 2 games a week(almost every week). She ended her season with a tournament, in which they ended up loosing to the undefeated #1 team in the semi-final. It was a team that beat most of the other teams in the league by 10+ goals. I think her team held them to 5 or 6. She had a good season. She played goalie for half of each game and did very well considering her size. She got a lot of comments from both teams in that final game about how well she played.

Tyler also played spring soccer with Danny as his coach. He was able to play on the same team as a couple of his friends from the neighborhood. He seemed to enjoy it, but didn't love how much he had to run. He also had 2 fairly dominant players on his team that scored the majority of their teams goals. They probably won most of their games by a 10-15 point spread because of the 2 boys, one of them pictured below(on the right).

Unfortunately a lot of Tyler and Alyssa's games overlapped, so I was only able to go to about 3 of Tyler's 8 games, and Danny only made it to about half of Alyssa's. Thank goodness we didn't have a 3rd child signed up for soccer!
