First Volleyball Game

Caroline had her first volleyball game on Sunday.  She needs to work on some of the moves, but had a great time.  Aunt Mara will need to spend a few hours with her. :)

 

First Soccer Game

Caroline decided to go back to recreational soccer this year and not be on the academy team.  It really came down to she wasn't having as much fun with all the practices and games.  Being on the rec team also means that Brian can be one of her coaches again.  And now she is able to add volleyball into our already crazy fall schedule!

Saturday was her first game and her team (Eclipse) won.  There is quite a difference in the level of play going from academy to recreational!!  She had a great time.  We were lucky that it was nice fall weather.

 

Dance Class for Sarah

On Wednesday night Sarah had her first dance class.  She is in the Tippy Toes class at Brookfield Dance Academy - the same place Julia goes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

First Day of School

 

Wordless Wednesday

Museum of Science and Industry

 

 

It was a long, but very fun day.  The kids can't wait until we go back!

Fun at the zoo

On Friday we took the kids to the zoo.  We have the zoo pass, but with how hot the summer was we didn't get to use it that much.  And unfortunately it was 90 degrees when we went, but it was fun and the kids enjoyed seeing the animals. 

And of course you have to do the train ride.

Everyone was hot and tired by the time we left.

And tomorrow (Sunday September 2nd) we are taking them to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago.
