Saturday

Austin after a huge kick....

Abby just kicked the ball up the field....

Andrew winding up for the pitch....

Another day on the run here in Barron! Austin had his 2 soccer meets today in Barron. They tied the first game, 0 to 0. The second game also ended in a tie, with a score of 1 to 1! The other team in the second game didn't have enough players, so four of our team players had to play for the other team so they had enough to scrimmage. I wonder if that really counts as a win for Barron then...

Abby also had soccer this morning. She played really well, up until the play when she got the ball right to the eye! That did not make her happy! She sat out for just a bit, and then was right back in there battling for the ball. Her team won their game--she told me that her team ALWAYS wins!

Andrew had his baseball tournament in Grantsburg today. They lost their first game, 2 to 4 against Grantsburg 1. By the time I got there with my friends, Linda and Kelli, they were tied 2 to 2, and then they ended up losing. I guess Linda, Kelli, and I should have come just a bit later! Maybe we were bad luck! :-) The boys went on to win their next 2 games of the day. They beat Grantsburg 2 by a score of 5 to 2, and they beat Osceola 14 to 0. Andrew got to pitch in the game against Osceola for 2 1/2 innings. In the second inning, he threw seven strikes out of seven pitches--3 up, 3 down! He did very well with his pitching!
