As we do pretty much every weekend in Spring we went to see Jude play soccer. He had another solid game and he was easily the best offensive player on his team. But they played a good team and lost 3-0. Jude was the only one on his team with some good opportunities on goal and one hit the post so he was unlucky not to score.
Over the last month Anna has started watching baking shows. The Great British Baking Show is her current obsession and we all watched the season finale of Season 1 tonight. It has also really motivated Anna to start baking herself. While she has always shown some interest in this it has reached a new level since she watched the show. She bugged Marcy for days that she wanted to make a cake so on Saturday she made one all by herself. It was actually pretty good.
In fifth grade the big project they had to do was a state project. Jude was assigned Mississippi and he had to write a report and do a presentation on it. He worked hard on it and was excited to find out his grade. We said that if he got an A he would be rewarded with a special treat at Glacier, his favorite ice cream place. Well, the grade came in on Friday and he got an A-. So, we were off to Glacier today to celebrate.
We have tennis courts about a quarter of a mile from our house. One of the neighbor kids asked Anna if she wanted to play. So, she got out her backpack and racket and rode her bike to the courts. She has been doing both golf and tennis lessons this spring and she likes tennis the best.
