Updates














What a nice way to start the new year's blog. The Steelers return to the Super Bowl and I found this great pictures of Emmy and Tyler at a younger age in there Steeler best. I will highlight some updates of each kid and their parents from youngest to oldest.






Tyler: This guy is keeping busy. He has a record of 7-7 in wrestling this year with 3 coming by pin. He has won a match at every tournament and has not been pinned this year, all losing coming on points. The most recent tournament Tyler took second meeting his goal for the year of a second or better at a tournament. He has also been active in Tiger Cubs taking second in his den at the Pinewood Derby race. He has started playing basketball this year and is super excited. It has moved to his favorite sport with wrestling and football following behind. His flag football season was great. he also played soccer in the fall and has decided that was his last go round with the round ball. He has one more tournament for wrestling this year and then will have basketball. In school, Tyler is doing really well all As. He has read over 700 books, his goal is 1000 by the end of first grade. Tyler is also singing in the Little Angels Choir at school




Emmy: Our sports nut. Emmy has been playing travel soccer this year, mostly playing against 9 and 10 year old boys. She loves it! She has started her second year of basketball and had really improved over last year, making 3 baskets in her first game. She will be continuing with soccer with a travel tournament in St. Louis, that she is really looking forward to. She is currently playing soccer 4 days a week and basketball 2 days a week. She is looking forward to summer soccer and softball. She is also doing amazing in school earning As in most subject and 2 B+s. She is enjoying being a Brownie after 2 years as a Daisy. She also is singing in the Little Angels Choir.


The Parents: We are happy, proud, and tired. Carrie continues her work with the American Cancer Society and loves being a sports mom. Brian has taken a position with Child Care Connection as a Provider Services Manager and loves the new role and challenges. The family has had great vacation this last year from Vermont to Disney to Gulf Shores. Traveling continues to be a passion of all of us. We are always on the look out for the next place to go.
