**Warning - (kinda) bragging parent post - also update for Auntie Shirley**
Yesterday was Schmidt sport day - the kids were able to play most of the day and then we had three different games, two sports, two locations in three hours. Whew.
The mini-van was moving yesterday folks like a pinball in a machine.
Stop1 - Cooper HS - MN Stars Martin 10U vs. Rochester Shock 11U
The girls moved up for this weekend to play 6th graders basically because there isn't a 5th grade team in the state that wants to play us. Don't know if that is good or bad, probably good. AE and team played awesome, poor baby girl had a few errors throwing the ball in during the press. I wonder sometimes what is going through her mind and then have to remind myself - SHE IS ONLY 11!!! Her coach told her if she kept doing that she would run 10 killers every time she does that again. Think that got her attention. The girls won 46-23.
Stop 2 - Plymouth Ice Arena - Renegades vs. Buffalo
Little man skated like a mad, mad man. He was having a great time and you could just tell he was a little powder keg ready to go off. He and one of his bestest buddies JV were on defense and did a great job, sometimes he forgot he was supposed to be back and had a few offside calls, but in the end JG scored the winning goal and was on cloud 9. I think my mom almost had the "big one" when the puck went in. I missed the celebration because I was checking on her. :)
Stop 3 - Cooper HS - MN Stars Martin 10U vs. MN Fury 11U
This game was the best game I have watched the girls play ALL SEASON. It was close, a little too close, but oh so very fun to watch. All of the girls stepped it up and stayed the course. The game went to OT and the girls were able to pull it together and won 41-37. AE fouled out, so did her friend NJ, but AE had 6 pts and about 10 blocked shots.
Let's just say all of us slept so very well last night.
