The Dream Team was back again this spring for a season full of awesome soccer playing and plenty of cartwheels! Go Dream Team!!

Samantha and Frances missed two games for the Taylor Swift concert. Bummer…but worth it! It wasn’t our winning-est season overall with two losses but they all played great and are really getting the concepts of dribbling and passing down. I continue to be super impressed with Samantha’s footwork. She’s a good soccer player!

They ended up in the silver bracket and had the bracket championship game Saturday morning. It was a tough game but the Dream Team took home the gold!!

Proud of these girls and the hustle and heart they bring to each game. I’m especially proud of this tough little girl and sure do love to watch her play!

Confirmation

May 22, 2023

Maxwell and the group of 6th graders at Cathedral Church of the Advent have been going through confirmation class the past several months. It’s been quite a commitment and I’m been so proud of how Maxwell has upheld that commitment! He only missed Sunday confirmation class two times – once because he was sick and once for a scout campout. They also went on a weekend retreat. Yesterday was confirmation day and Robert and I actually decided to get confirmed and join the Advent as well. Ronnie was Maxwell’s sponsor and everyone was able to come in town for the service and lunch at the club after.

It was a special morning and I’m glad we could all be together. I guess we’re Episcopalian now! ha! The denomination doesn’t matter much to me but what does matter is that the kids have a good church home with a thriving youth group and lots of buddies. Advent fits that bill and we’re happy to be there!
