Fall Activities: Gymnastics and Soccer

Our 2 extracurriculars this fall are gymnastics for Mallory and soccer for Harrison.  Not surprisingly, Mallory LOVES gymnastics! She has a few little girlfriends in her class with her and she is in her element as she runs around, jumps, does forward rolls, walks on the balance beam, and generally throws her body around as much as possible. Her class is 30 minutes, and I am pretty sure she could stay for another 2 hours. Yes, gymnastics continues to be a great outlet for her!

Sort of surprisingly, however, has been how much Harrison has loved soccer! He did a little non-competitive sports clinic at the y, which was never really that engaging for him.  However, thanks to an incredible coach, fun soccer gear (new blue soccer ball, cletes, shin guards, a team uniform), and having a surprisingly great attitude about it he has loved it! He even scores goals in most games! His games are Saturday mornings, and it is 30 minutes of practice and then a 30 minute game.  He loves it!
