Too many pictures from last weekend

Jade and Xander before soccer practice.


These two were far more interested in the circling ice cream truck
than anything Coach Tim had to say.


Coach eventually got Xander's attention.


Kick!


Xander asked me to take his picture with Clare.


Couldn't pass up that rare opportunity!


I'm slowly, slowly starting to win the battle of the hair clip.




Ready...set...


Jump!


Xander and Jade wait their turn to jump into the "water."


Go Jade!


Axel really wanted in on the diving-into-the-imaginary-water action.


He thought about it for a long time, watching the bigger kids go by
again and again.


He finally got to do it, too.


And soon he was as confident as an old pro.


The kids get free apples at the Olympia Farmers Market.


When Xander was this age I couldn't yet dream of the day he could amble around a public place without one of us holding tight to him.
He was always off like a shot.


Pointing at Daddy behind the camera.


We had a fun morning.
