This spring we decided to take a break from travelling soccer. And by we I mean (Johan and I). The boys kind of just went along with it... The plan was to for go soccer and all the crazy driving around the state in order to try some individual sports with less strenuous travel schedules.
Since December the boys have been doing Tae Kwon Do again. But they have decided that there was a reason that they stopped doing it a couple years ago. They just don't enjoy it... C has been participating in track with the local middle school. He is starting to enjoy it, and he has a great deal of talent.
For their birthdays we got the boys new BMX bikes. The racing season began here two weeks ago.
The first day was a lot of fun. C and K loved it! That is C on the far left in the starting block. K is the second racer from the left. This is a warm up round. They had an opportunity to practice for about an hour before the actual racing began.
C and K's biggest fan.
The races are held at a rough time for us. They start at noon on Sunday. Noon is little K's naptime. So we left church and little K fell asleep.
I thought it was going to be perfect because we could get the boys registered and little K could sleep in the car. Nope! A is not so good at doing anything quietly and when we arrived at the track she was excited and bopping around the van. Her excitement was contagious. Little K could feel the energy...
The first day of racing was a success. The boys had a great time, and A enjoyed making friends at the track.
This weekend, I was in SF so Johan was on his own. He did great! So did the boys. C and K both brought home a first place one of these:
I think we will be going back to soccer in the fall. But for now, BMX is pretty fun!
