July - September 2013

Our summer involved a few trips, including one big trip to the "Historical Triangle" in Virginia where we visited Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown with our friends from Vermont. In August, Fall soccer started up again. Jack scored the first goal for his team in the first game of the season, which turned out to be the only win of the season for Jack and his teammates, unfortunately. Anna and her team started off strong with a series of wins (more on this next post). Kate started back up with gymnastics (but we don't seem to have any good photos of that; sorry, Kate!).

April - June 2013

Spring soccer, the Springfest goldfish, Kate's first all-by-herself 1K kids run, and then summer vacation started! There was a ballet recital, the first camping trip with all five of us, and then a big trip for a family reunion in Nebraska.

January - March 2013

We had birthdays in January and in March. We also had some late snow, so we got to do some extra sledding. Unfortunately, we broke a few of our sleds on our last trip, so we'll need new ones the next time it snows.
