Both kids played Newport rec soccer again this year. Julia was on the Mighty Knights and Mom was the coach. Her team started 0-1-2 and finished with a 7-0 streak. Julia showed amazing tenacity and hustle. She was probably the 2nd highest goal scorer and the MVP on defense. And she decided goalie is not for her. Alex played on the Ender Dragons although there were only 4 kids back from last year. It was definitely a rebuilding year as they only won 1 game. Alex scored 2 goals and was by far the best goalie on the team and maybe in the league. Way to go, Alex and Julia.
Alex is doing debate club this fall and his team won the whole tournament. He recently argued it's better to be a follower than a leader since you're less likely to get assassinated.
Other fall stuff - We had a nice visit with Grandma B is September. Kids were Darth Vader and Medusa for Halloween. We had a very early snow. And we had a wonderful family reunion last weekend. Everyone is looking forward to the holidays!
