BYE-BYE JUNE!
So as usual it's been a busy June for the Ashby's! We finished up baseball and unfortunately Ethan's team gave new meaning to the term "bad new bears"! They either started off the game kicken butt and ended kickin dirt or started the game kickin dirt and ended kickin butt...not enough to win though! Ethan moved up a league this year so there were new rules which they all had to adjust to and some of the boys his age have hit their growth spurt and that really came into play when batting! Through it all Ethan played with great sportsmanship, had some awesome hits, played some good defense, and over all just had fun! He's now praying for a growth spurt before next season!
Following in the foot steps of another great "Trackster" in our family.....(Mariah) Tylar started track this month and has "Wowed" us with her mad running skill! She has truly loved it and beg's us to take her to the track to practice every chance she gets! Last Monday she was in charge of Family Home Evening and made us all go to the track. She was the coach! She warmed us up, ran us, and sprinted us until we were all wore out! She has won multiple ribbons and even qualified to run the 4x100 at the State Hershey Meet. She recently took first place in the long jump by jumping 8'9". The above picture was the qualifying meet for the District Hershey meet where she took 1st place in the 50 meter dash. It's been so much fun watching her and we are excited to watch her continue to grow in this!
The other pictures are of the kids Field Day at school and all the Ashby boys playing basketball which has become a regular occurance! I took pictures because as you can see, Lance is playing and in 20 years I don't think I've ever seen him play. I was a little nervous because of his back but it doesn't seem to bother him and I'm quite impressed with his basketball skill....so is Ethan! It's been a fun time for he and Ethan to spend together.
Well those are a few of the highlights for our June! We're definatley looking forward to July and all the family activites that are coming up and can't wait to be together with everyone! I'm sure we'll have some great pictures to post!
