Chess Saturdays commence! Fortuitously (new vocab word), chess starts right about when soccer ends so we won't have to pick between the two too much.
Boys did great. Christian won 2nd place among 5th graders and beat two guys who were ranked a couple of hundred points above him. "Both Asian guys", as he observed to me later. Olin won 1st place in 2nd grade.

| Hopefully people don't think I intentionally dress the kids like twins. Also, I finally convinced Christian to let me cut his hair. He was flipping his head and moving his hair back every 5 minutes and it was driving me crazy. |

| Sidenote: The guy in the back with the beard, Earl, is a dad at the school. His wife is really bubbly but he's really quiet so up until now we had no idea of all his talents, but he 1) is the coach of our chess club and is a good chess player and 2) is also a deejay and brought his entire set-up to Jogathon and we rocked out. haha. Not sure what his day job is, but he's a man of many talents. We call him the International Man of Mystery. :) |
