Cross Country and Soccer

I am so proud of JT and the progress he has made since joining cross country. He really seems to enjoy running and takes pride in his accomplishments hes making in it. Yesterday they had their only meet the 6th grade was having this year. There were 31 boys that raced and he came in 16th. Within only seconds from 10-15th. I hope he keeps it up!!
Pate had soccer yesterday and they WON their first game 1-0. She is getting to be more aggessive. She is very good at running and kicking the ball in practice and behind the bench while the game is going on but when she gets out there on the field she just follows someone on her team and is SO passive. She does her nervous hair twirl if the ball even comes close. Oh well, maybe by the end of the season she'll come around. Its funny how shy she is in front of people when really she is SO not that way. The people that know her best can vouch to that.
JT finally had his end of the season baseball party today! I know, a little late but better late then never. It was great to see everyone again. They swam and played and had a great time.
Tomorrow is a day off from school and Tara and I are headed to Tulsa for the day. Really looking forward to that. We never get away without the kids.
Here are a some pics from the weekend.

Favorites quotes for the week. (actually two quotes): "being nice to people you arent a big fan of isnt being fake. Its called growing up!"

"People ask why I run. I say "if you have to ask, you will never understand". It is something only those select few know. Those who put themselves through pain, but deap down know how good it feels".
