After a week of rain, the sun made an appearance Saturday. What a glorious day. Sunshine always lifts the spirits, and mine had gotten kind of low as I'm losing a battle against a cold. Katie played in a football (soccer) tournament, which began at 8:30am. Larry, thankfully, took her and let the twins and I sleep for a few more minutes.
There were five schools competing in the tournament. Katie's team played three games; losing two and tying one. Since they only practice once a week, I really wasn't too surprised at the outcome. The other girls' teams were made up of older girls, so Katie used that as an excuse as well. I was reminded of watching my niece, Julia, playing soccer one time. She looked so cute in her little uniform, standing in the middle of the field, twirling her hair, not at all concerned with the game going on around her. Several of the girls on an opposing team were practicing their cartwheels at mid-field. However, Dulwich's boys' teams did well, winning the "cup".
After the games, the girls and I went out to lunch and then took a walk along the lakeshore. We took lots of pictures, pretending it was for a magazine...basically hamming it up and enjoying the gorgeous weather. My girls love the camera and the camera certainly loves them.
