Way back in mid July, Mary's softball team won the championship in 7 inning. They normally play 5 but the coaches had agreed to 6 in which they tied. The winning out was questionable but both teams played very well.
By the end of July, we were finished with the swim team season as well. Mary won the "Most Improved" for her age group and Becca, who was not present, won the "Two Peas in a Pod" award with her bestie Anna.
Mary asked for lots of braids in her wet hair one night. She was very happy with the results the next day.
Anniversary DQ!
Becca wasn't the only Scout to earn their Eagle this summer. Pia joined the same time as Becca and I think they helped motivate each other to the finish.
It was a bit chiller than normal at the St. Pat's pool party this year.
Last weekend we celebrated Becca at Inside Panther Night, but first we had some BBQ.
Here is Becca with the swim team on the football field.
I was way to excited to go to my first real cross country meet yesterday. And unlike in the past, it wasn't horrible hot for the Pekin race. Here the St. Pats girls varsity is getting ready.
I was told to stop taking pictures, so I took this one.
The bulk of the girls team ran together for a good portion on the race. Lia is in the mix.
Lia is no the Irish runner in front but you can just see her head behind the girl in blue.
It was a new course for Pekin this year but still fast. Lia PR'd at 14:53!
