Sports With Matt

Once again, I am woefully behind on my little blog here.

I'm going to try and catch up on the last three months in the next couple of weeks so I can breathe easy again as it has a tendency to linger in the back of my mind when I have some catching up to do.

Sometime in the spring (I can't remember when), Matt's class had an ice skating field trip that I volunteered to help out with...

Matt loved it and was whizzing around all over the place!

I was a bit more hesitant since I had sprained my wrist earlier in the winter and didn't want to re-injure it.

At one point as I was making my way around the rink I realized I couldn't see Matt anywhere and started looking for him.  Before long I spotted a group of people surrounding someone down on the ice and I instinctively knew it would be my fearless Matt.

Sure enough, he had fallen hard and hurt his knee.  We sat out for a few minutes and then he wanted to get back out on the ice.  After just a minute or two though he was in too much pain so we went and took his skates off to rest.

We wondered if it needed to be looked at by a doctor but decided to wait and see.

It ended up being tender for a bit but healed up nicely.

Matt's been begging to go back ever since!

I think it might be a nice summer activity :)

Matt has also been involved in his semi competitive soccer team this spring...

Matt decided a while ago that this would be his last year of soccer.

He wants to take a break and maybe move on to a different sport.

He's thinking football...yikes!
