Yep! That would be hail. We woke up this morning to thunder and lightening. When John got home, he went out to make sure our backyard was rain-ready, putting down umbrellas, covering the BBQ, etc. While doing that, he heard sparks and looked up to see that the telephone wires behind our house had been struck! Needless to say, he hightailed it into the house and soon after the huge raindrops and hail started falling. The kids were freaking out with excitement!
So, all games before noon were cancelled but the "storm" left as quickly as it came so the later games were a go. This season is a little different for us now that Kate is out of pee-wees and playing for real with goalies and scorekeeping and all. Although, we were told up until this afternoon that the lower 6 teams did not have goalies so we have never practiced and the girls didn't quite know how to do that job. Our "Red Hearts" did a great job and won their first game 2 to 1! Kate even played goalie during the last quarter. (Psst...she's kind of the reason the other team scored but the Pink Fairies appreciated it. ;) )

| The Vander Molens rode their bikes over to the game so Luke and Brooklyn had a great time playing in the bike trailer while Kate played. |

| Dylan loves cheering on his big cousin! |

| She stopped a goal! Good job! |
 |
| But she did not want us to cheer for her |
