The first game of the season for Luke’s team started out a bit on the “Oh My, this could be bad” kind of game. His team has two boys including himself and a whole bunch of giggly girls. They are all first graders age 6 and 7. The team they were against was second graders, that were much taller and looked tough with 4 boys. Luke was on their team last year. Luke’s team did well, got right in there and after the ball. The first half Luke ran back and forth, kicked the ball a few times, then discovered he liked to hang back and play goalie. When the other team kicked a ball down to his end, he did a good job of kicking it back. It worked for him. By the second half he was hanging back almost the entire game.
The second half of the day we went to celebrate Alivia's 8th birthday. She had a family party with Pretty Pony decorations. She even had a giant pony balloon. This years party was quiet without all the school friends. Jake got into a bit of trouble. He and Alivia like to gang up on Luke and hide from him or just be mean, hide his shoe,s or throw dirt in his face. Jake had a long talking to about showing love to his brother and we left a little earlier.
.It was also the first time we got to see Alice since she is back.
Mark and Jayden went down south to Centerville to pick up a horse to try for the boys. A friend of a friend told us about the horse. We didn't ask questions or see the horse and just went by what the friend said. Bad idea. When they brought the horse home, I couldn't get it back fast enough. It was so sway back it looked awful. I can't see how that would be healthy for a horse to be riddeen and it would be embarrassing to take anywhere. That was one of a list of bad qualities we discoverd with the horse when we did give it a try. Both riding and on the ground, he was not a horse we wanted to have around. Another no go for the boys.
