I am so techno-challenged!

This is pretty neat! Thought I'd update you on the happenings of the Brett Moore family.

Brenlon has been playing in his Major Boy's All-Star Tournament this week. The tournament is set up as a pool play. There are two pools. They played on Monday and lost. They played Tuesday and won. They played Wednesday and lost. We figured that would put us out of the running for the semi-final game on Saturday. They played yesterday (Thursday) and just had fun. It was a fabulous game. They won by one point in the bottom of the last inning. What a heart-pounder! We found out that we are in a 3-way tie for 2nd place in our pool. Whether we play in the semi-finals on Saturday depends on who wins a game today between LaGrande and Triangle, and how many points are scored (how many points scored against each team is what breaks the tie). We are a long-shot, but it's been a fun tournament.

We are also playing soccer. Landon is loving his first year of playing. I am coaching his team. He plays on the U-7 team, which is 5&6 year olds. They play 3 on 3. Landon does pretty well, but I find that I have to remind him to go get the ball a lot (he loves to watch his shadow run). He scored his first goal last night. Jayden and Kindra are playing on the U-11 team. They are doing well. Kindra is still pretty timid, but seems to enjoy playing. Jayden gets right in the middle of it. He scored 4 goals last night in his game. Treyton and Brenlon play on the U-15 team. Treyton loves soccer. It is definitely his sport. Brenlon has been playing baseball in the afternoons, and then playing soccer at night. He does well at soccer, but prefers baseball. He'll be glad when he's only playing one sport at a time, though.

The boys are getting ready for our County Fair. Our pigs got sick this year, so they are really small. It will take a miracle for Treyton's and Brenlon's to gain enough weight. Jayden's pig was too big when we got him, so he should be just right at Fair time. Our fair is July 31-Aug. 5.

Everything is going well around here. We are really busy, and don't ever seem to be home. I tell people that it keeps us out of trouble! Hope you are all doing well.
