Tired Of Header Changes Yet? [Administration]

A Glorious Hampton Weekend (Not Really) [Video]
So this was one of those glorious weekends without the kids having any games (though Madysen did have soccer practice and I had an indoor game–which I won and scored a goal (ahem)), so we did our impression of normal … Continue reading
Lacrosse v. McKinney [Speed]
Speed had a lacrosse game against McKinney yesterday afternoon. We got there late–coming from Layla’s Blue Broncos team party–so I have no idea what the final score was, but HP won going away. The little girls were–as always–paying rapt attention. … Continue reading

Another Year, Another Banquet [Madysen]
Madysen is approaching the end of her third year of select soccer, which means it’s that time again–banquet time. Like last year, the banquet was too long. (I think they are largely pointless, but whatever.) It was held at a … Continue reading
