Lucia started playing soccer this year and I get to coach. Andrew is continuing his reffing career, now in his 4th year.
First VHS Cross Country Meet

Andrew, Ian, & Will went to CYC camp.
Andrew Orchestra Concert
Andrew’s Orchestra Concert
End of the Track Season
Andrew ran track this spring. He enjoys running, and the camaraderie, but track was not as fun as Cross Country. After the final meet of the year I caught him and his friends playing around on the podium.
Andrew’s First Driving Lesson
Highlights included:
- Andrew driving
- Accidentally running into a snow bank
- Driving down a small, inter-parking lot road with another car behind him.
Andrew’s Orchestra Concert
Andrew had his 2nd orchestra concert of the year tonight. We didn’t have a great view of him, but we got this picture afterward and recorded Bohemian Rhapsody.
Andrew’s Orchestra Concert
This evening Andrew had his second orchestra concert of the year. They played four songs written by Tchaikovsky.
Living History Farms Race
Andrew ran the Living History Farms race this morning, the unofficial end to the cross country season. It was about 26 degrees out, with a sharp wind out of the north. There are several creek crossings in the race and he was fairly wet.
Andrew’s Orchestra Concert
Now that the kids are back in school they are all back to their instruments: Andrew is playing the Cello, Mari the Tuba, and Elliot the Saxophone. It is fun to hear them practicing again and they are all doing well.
Tonight we had our first concert of the school year, for Andrew’s orchestra.
