Tuesday, December 30, 2014. Chase got a chance to wrestle during the middle of the highschool tournament. The match was tough but Chase ended up winning by points and really looked good out there. Saturday, December 27, 2014. We had a nice visit with the rest of our family today. Hope got to meet even more of her extended family. She is really shy when she first meets someone and it takes a bit to open up. She seems to have a harder time with men and doesn't really want them to hold her. So here I am cat...

Saturday, January 31, 2015. Conor had his first indoor soccer game the other night. He injured himself early on and had a hard time playing the rest of the game. It's a really aggressive game and several people got injured during the game. The lighting was bad so the pictures really didn't turn out that great but here's a couple. Friday, January 30, 2015. We first ate at one of our favorite places Mo's. We got clam chowder and it was delicious! Parker's 8th grade Basketball. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
