Cross Country runners




Here they are - Hollan and Addison participating in their school's cross country races....they finished every race - Addison's highest place was 4th and Hollan's was 15th (there were an average of 35 runners in his races). They are both happy the season is over!

Another win for the Hot Shots


Hollan 'pitched' his second shutout as he made some incredible saves in goal with his team winning 5-0 in their second to last game of the season. His leaping save to knock down a shot that was over his head was one of the highlights not caught on film....the videographer was too busy watching the game! It will, however, be etched in the brain of Hollan as he recapped the play over and over and over again to his siblings..

Mike pulling his weight


Mike, you've finally found a justification for putting on all that weight. It was for the future support of Nairne. You're a good dad.

Das Boot doubled


On the strength of her 'booting' ability, Addison's two kicks, which ended up being goals, helped her team to a shocking 4-3 victory over a more talented opponent.
Her penalty kick hit the top crossbar and bounced down into the goal and her corner kick curved and landed in the corner of the net. What a leg!

Victory at Last!


Friday night Nairne led his JH football team to their first victory in 3 years...in a 2 touchdown pass (1 int) outing in the pouring rain and in a slimy mudpit, they pulled it out an OT win... a cheering massive pile of Timbercrest football players ended up in the middle of the field. Mike tried, unsuccessfully, to knock over the field goal posts along with the 12 Timbercrest fans.
I, unfortunately, had to leave before the end OT to pick up Add from soccer practice, so was unable to share in the joyous celebration.
