Chess

Lincoln played in his first chess tournament the other Saturday. He had a good time and won 3 out of his 6 games. He liked it enough to sign up to play in another one in January!

Too long

It’s been too long since new pictures have been added. Here are a few from Cade and Wyatt playing in the Jr/Sr High Orchestra at Silverwood. The same night Lincoln was in the Christmas program.

9 is fine

Cross Country

Wyatt is in the pack somewhere!

Fishing

Upside down cello playing

Shhh, it's a secret!

Don't tell his older brothers. He spilled the beans and told mom though. :)

GMS Academic Awards night

Cade was honored last night along with 25 other classmates for earning straight A’s during his middle school years. Each student had a teacher introduce them. It was a special night!

Spring Break

While Cade had a concert in Chicago the rest of us walked to Navy Pier and enjoyed the Children’s Museum. After the concert we rode the train up to the Cubs game. Finally we went to Gurnee and had a blast at an indoor water park!

First fire of the year

Who needs the beach when you have s'mores!

GMS conference meet

The swim season officially concluded this week with a GSI banquet Tuesday night and conference meets on Wednesday and Thursday. Wyatt swam last night at the JV meet. He earned two fourth place individual finishes and two seconds with his relay teams. The JV boys also earn second overall in the conference!

Cade earned a fourth and a tie for second in individual events and second and fifth in relays. The boys varsity team earned second overall!

Meanwhile…Lincoln is just glad it’s over!

Bring on the baseball season!

Snow camp

We had a great time with the junior high youth group at Camp Friedenswald this weekend. There were lots of things to do like a nature walk, naked tubing.

Bundled up tubing.

and sledding!
