Soccer Stud

Yesterday Gabe and the Freshman/Sophomore Blue Devil soccer team hosted Burlington at the Davenport Dads Club soccer complex. Any time we are there you can pretty much choose one of three different types of weather patterns....wet, windy or cold. Tuesday was windy!

Central used the wind in the first half, scoring a goal early. But the wind picked up stronger in the second half. Burlington used the wind at their back to score 3 unanswered goals for a 3-1 win. The strong breeze made it harder for Central to move forward, they didn't come close to scoring in the second half. Gabe played the entire game at his customary position, left back defense man. Here are the highlights:

We'll try and get some film of Abbi and Elli playing soccer and Elli at Little League later this week.

Reesey Pooh

Last Sunday Marcia and Tiffany held a baby shower for Ally here at our house. About 20 of Ally's friends and family showed. They were treated with some snack foods and played games for prizes. Ally looked like she was very happy with the turnout and she even got to take home some cool gifts for her and the baby.

Before the party started I got to take this video of the girls playing with Reese. You'll hear the name Reesey Pooh mentioned a couple of times, if you are wondering there is a story behind the name, which Gabe came up with. But not for baby Reese....for his choir teacher Mr. Reese!! It seems back in February Gabe found Mr. Reese's cell phone out of sight from Mr. Reese. Gabe got the number and started texting and calling him....Reesey Pooh! Mr. Reese didn't know who it was until a few days later when Gabe couldn't keep the secret to himself any longer. Enjoy our little Reesey Pooh...awake and animated!!!!
