Kite Festival and soccer

The city hosts a kite festival every year. This year we were worried that it would rain since it seems to rain nonstop now. But thankfully there was a break in the weather and we had a perfectly sunny and windy day for a kite festival:

Here is Lily on her bike:

 The kite festival was awesome! Jack had a blast flying his kite

 After the festival we had to head over to Jack and Lily's last soccer game of the season:





Jack had a great team this year and we became friends with many of the families. It is fun to watch the team play together, but Jack seemed to struggle to keep up with the other kids. He needs to work on his running so it is a good thing he is taking track this summer. We will try soccer again in the fall and see if he has improved. But we still had a great season and we made some good friends.

Most of Jack's games and practices were cancelled because of the rain. We tried to make up most of them but even the make ups got rained out. One of the make up practices was scheduled for a Wednesday afternoon but it had been raining all day. We showed up for practice at 5pm and it was still raining and there was a river flowing through the field. The kids still wanted to play soccer in the rain so we all got out with our umbrellas. Then the sky cleared for an hour and the kids were able to get their practice in under a rainbow.
