The kids both participated in a spring sport this year. Olivia played softball with the rec. department. They had games both in town and in Alma. She mostly played catcher, which is her favorite position, and she even caught a pop fly in one of the games. When she wasn't catching, she was in the outfield and she did a good job playing in that position as well.
I had planned to sign Owen up for baseball again, but he let me know real quick that his baseball days were over. His age division in baseball is live-pitch, and he is not a fan of that. The rec department had so much success with the soccer program in the fall, that they decided to do a spring soccer league. Owen likes soccer a lot, so he decided to play that instead of baseball. The only downside was that his games frequently coincided with Olivia's softball games, so I only got to see Owen play a few times. Brian went to all of the soccer games, though, and gave me a full report of each one. Owen played goalie and improved a lot as the season went on. He started kicking the ball much farther and he blocked several important shots.
