IT WAS A DAY

FULL OF WATER POLO

AND A NIGHT FULL OF FOOTBALL

TODAY FOUND US AT SACRED HEART HIGH SCHOOL
WATCHING SOQUEL, AND SYDNEY
IN THE NOR-CAL CHAMPIONSHIPS

SYD AND MONTA VISTA'S #12

HUNG OUT TOGETHER
A GOOD PART OF THE GAME.

YOU'D ALMOST THINK THEY
WERE FRIENDS,

OR NOT!

YOU SHOW HER SYD,

YOU OWN THE BALL!

DOESN'T IT LOOK LIKE SHE
JUST WANTS TO SLAP THIS GIRL.
NOT OUR SYD.

SYDNEY GAVE IT HER ALL,

SO THIS FINAL SCORE
IS NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OF.

 THIS CAMPUS AT SACRED HEART IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!

THEY EVEN HAVE THEIR OWN HORSE STABLES.

 SECOND GAME, SAME NUMBER, 

BLUE CAP.

SAME GOOD MOVES,

WHEN SHE HAD THE BALL

OR WAS DEFENDING.
SOQUEL WAS WINNING THIS GAME UNTIL
THE SECOND HALF, WHEN IT ENDED IN
A TIE SCORE.  THIS LED TO OVERTIME, 
AND SOQUEL LOSING THE GAME.

TOMORROW'S ANOTHER DAY,
WITH NEW GAMES TO PLAY.
GOOD LUCK LADY KNIGHTS!

WATER POLO AT IT'S FINEST

TODAY SYDNEY'S WATER POLO TEAM HAD A GAME AGAINST SALINAS HIGH SCHOOL.  I HAD NO CAMERA BUT BETTY TOOK A PICTURE FOR ME WITH HER PHONE.

SYDNEY, ON THE LEFT SIDE WITH THE WHITE CAP, #13,
HAD A GREAT GAME, AS DID HER TEAMMATES.
THEY WON WITH A SCORE OF 16 TO 0.
WAY TO GO LADY KNIGHTS!

 LOOK AT THESE CUTE SMORES KITS BETTY MADE.

I LEFT SOME FOR THE GRANDAUGHTERS THREE,
BUT KEPT A FEW TO TRY FOR MYSELF.

YUMMY!!!

SUPER KID TRIATHLON

IT'S BEEN 14 YEARS NOW THAT THE GRANDKIDS HAVE BEEN PARTICIPATING IN THE SUPER KID TRIATHLON.  THERE WERE YEARS THAT WE HAD 10 OF THEM IN THE RACE AT ONCE.  IT WAS ALL WE COULD DO TO KEEP UP WITH WHO WAS SWIMMING, OR BIKING, OR RUNNING FOR THE FINISH LINE.  SLOWLY BUT SURELY, THEY'VE  TURNED 16 AND NO LONGER COULD BE A PART OF IT.  THIS YEAR THERE WAS JUST THREE GRANDKIDS, AND A FEW FRIENDS THAT DID THE RACE.

 THESE THREE VOLUNTEERED,
HANDING OUT THE MEDALS AT THE FINISH  LINE. 

ROXY AND HER COUSIN GORDAN RACED SIDE BY SIDE
IN THE OLDER GROUP,

ALONG WITH THEIR FRIEND DOMINIC.

THEY WERE NECK N NECK

FOR THE SWIM.

LIV WAS THE NEXT ONE IN THE WATER,
BUT FIRST THERE'S THAT WARM UP DANCE.

SHE'S A STRONG SWIMMER,

COMING IN FOR A TURN,

AND OUT OF THE WATER IN A FLASH.

SHE WAS OFF ON HER BIKE,
JUST BEFORE ROXY CAME IN ON HER RUN,
WEARING HER TRADITIONAL TUTU.

ROXY WAS THE FIRST PLACE GIRL IN HER AGE GROUP,
AND SECOND OVER ALL.  FRIEND DOMINIC WAS THE
 FIRST PLACE BOY, AND FIRST PLACE OVER ALL.  

GORDAN, EVEN AFTER TAKING A SPILL ON THE BIKE,
CAME IN SECOND BOY, AND THIRD OVERALL.
I'D SAY THAT WAS A SWEEP!

SORRY HANNAH, NOT SURE WHERE YOU CAME IN.
I HAVE A HARD ENOUGH TIME KEEPING TRACK OF
THE GRANDKIDS.  LOOKS LIKE YOU WERE FINISHING
UP STRONG.

WITH THE OLDER ONES DONE,  LIV
COMES IN ON HER BIKE, READY FOR THE RUN.

SHE COMES IN FOR A STRONG FINISH,

PUSHING IT TO THE END.
NOT SURE WHERE SHE CAME IN, IN HER AGE GROUP,
BUT SHE WAS FAST!

 WE CELEBRATED BEING DONE EARLY THIS YEAR

WITH GOING OUT TO BREAKFAST.

IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A GREAT BREAKFAST BURRITO,
THIS IS THE PLACE TO COME.

WE KIND OF TOOK OVER THE PATIO.

AFTER THE RACE , IT WAS TIME TO CELEBRATE
ELISE AND OLIVIA'S BIRTHDAY, WITH
FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
HAVE A GREAT YEAR YOU TWO,
AND MAY ALL YOUR WISHES COME TRUE!!!
