Lax Goal!

2 weeks ago, Mike & Sil were in town and spent the weekend with us.  They were good sports about us dragging them to bmx and lacrosse, and the kids just love them!  I took my camera to Lucas' first game, and then left it home for the next 7 weeks or so.  I took it this time, with my big close-up lens, and it's a good thing I did... Lucas scored his first goal!  We were all SO excited!

Some pics of the game and maybe of Char playing...  He's #4 on the gray team.

And heeeeeerrrrreeee it is...  The before and during shot of Lucas' first ever goal!

Just scooped up the ball...  Eye on the goal...

Pushed down right after he took the shot.  If you look closely, you can see the ball in the air by the goalie's shoulder.

So Excited!

Memorial Day Weekend

Saturday morning of Memorial Day weekend, Lucas had a lacrosse game.  We left from there and headed toward the property.  We stopped in Hagerstown on the way, because they have a bmx track and there was a race that day at noon.  There weren't many people there, and Lucas had plenty of time to practice before the race began.  In the end, he came in 3rd because he fell (after getting a great start) at the beginning of the final race :(  Oh well, he got his first ever medal instead of trophy.  His highlight was in the 2nd lap when he cut someone off to get the inside line on a curve and came out ahead.  Once at the property, there was plenty of swinging, playing, quad riding, and unsuccessful fishing!  The Pebble Beach of disc golf was discovered, and we stayed 2 nights for the first time ever too!

The "pass you on the curve" maneuver

This time last year, we just found out we were expecting baby #3!!!
