First Communion

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

More important than the soccer games on Saturday was Kate’s First Communion. She looked lovely in her white dress and veil, and the jewelry she received from gifts from Ted & I as well as from my parents. Kate bravely partook of the wine but rather than taking a small sip, she drank deeply from the chalice! Perhaps that’s why she fell asleep in mid-sentence while eating her ice cream later that evening!

Soccer Saturday

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Both kids had soccer games on Saturday — a makeup game for Ben and a regular one for Kate. I’m not really happy with pictures from either game but here they are any way.

 

State Cup

Monday, April 21st, 2008

Ben’s team played in the state cup tournament on Saturday, on a gorgeous day. The field was a fairly new turf field and it still had tons of those little black pellets. You can see the spray in a couple of pictures. Maybe I should be concerned given the news about lead in artificial turf fields. Nah – there’s a soccer game to play!
