Sports, sports, & more sports
Ironic to think that I, shunning sports and even P.E. while growing up, should have such athletic kids!
This is a very busy fall with all the kids participating in numerous sports activites.? Josh & Zach are both strong players on their soccer teams, playing in all positions.? Morgan is still involved in gymnastics as a part of the League AAA team at Seattle Gymnastics and, numerous meets are coming up soon!? All three of them have decided to do cross country this year, Morgan & Josh running a mile and Zach the half mile.? Morgans has been especially determined with this as running is definately not her favorite sport, yet she has endured numerous training runs during the summer and has already finished well in her first cross country meet this last Sunday!
The family sport now is Tae Kwan Do, excluding Leigh due to her back.? All the kids & I tested for their yellow belts at the beginning of September and passed!?

Take a look at the kids sport pages for their achievements!
Audition for Cinderella Children’s Theater
Posted by Kevin Tucker in Events, Kids, Morgan on June 17, 2007
The Missoula Children’s Theater is going to be in town for the Shoreline Arts festival.? They are holding auditions for a production of Cinderella that will be performed during the festival.? Morgan and her friend Sierra plan to audition for parts!
PNA Junior Camp @ Double-K Ranch
Posted by Kevin Tucker in Events, Josh, Morgan on May 19, 2007
Josh and Morgan and their friends get to attend the PNA Junior camp this year! (Josh went last year).? It’s a ton of fun and they’re both really looking forward to it.
Josh’s Baseball camp went so well and they offered a major discount for a second week, that we decided to send him back to that instead.
General Stuff
Posted by Kevin Tucker in General, Morgan on May 15, 2007
Whew! It’s easy to get behind in describing what’s going on with us!? The events just keep flying by.? ? The Royals had their? first (very narrow) defeat of the season.? The kids had a great program at school on Thursday night. The Royals had a strong comeback Saturday morning and Zach had a great game that afternoon, too!? Zach had a really fun time at his friend and classmate, Samual Haven’s birthday party right after his game.
On Sunday, to celebrate Mother’s Day, we decided that Black Angus would be a bit more comfortable than a picnic this year with the heavy clouds and cold breeze blowing.? Leigh got a free afternoon when I took the kids over to their cousin’s to help Erich put together Katy’s new basketball hoop.? That was quite the engineering feat as the instructions were quite unhelpful.
Morgan and I went up to Bitter Lake to cheer on the Fairview softball team? on Monday night.? We have a very strong team and they won the game with a 10+ point margin.? Debbie C put in a good showing as well, getting on base twice!? And home, once by proxy…? Kate Hendersen ran for her from 1st base on and Debbie was seen in the dugout cheering “herself” on.
Kingdom Quest, The Ultimate Challenge!
Posted by Kevin Tucker in Events, Josh, Kids, Morgan on May 9, 2007
Morgan and Josh will be participating in the Fairview Christian School 3rd through 6th grade program called Kingdom Quest, The Ultimate Challenge!? It will be held in the school auditorium.? Don’t miss it!
Another baseball weekend
This was the weekend of the RUG Little League Hit-a-thon and picture day.? Created a new picture? gallery for them.? Not only that, but Zach’s team also managed to have a game scheduled that day.? He and his team played well as always.? His friend Evan on his team got the first Grand Slam of the season.? Way to go Mariners!
Josh and Zach have been soliciting support for their hit-a-thon last week and have one more week to ask for additional sponsors and collect funds.? If you’re interested in help out their league to pay for new uniforms, equipment, and such, the boys would be glad to hear from you!? You can sponsor them for a flat fee or per foot for their longest hit.? Josh, at the minor league level, hit 100 feet.? Zach, at the coach pitch where they let the ball roll before counting the distance, managed 165 feet.
Morgan decided to spend her time with her friend Drea, even though her family was cleaning house.? She said she’d rather clean with her friend than stand around at a baseball field…?
Some friends had some tickets to the Mariners that night that they couldn’t use, so Leigh took Josh, Zach and Loren Nelson to the game.? Too bad the Mariners didn’t do so well.? Morgan and Kevin stayed over at the Gordons for dinner and had Pizza Hut pizza and watched some episodes of the Addams Family and the Monkeys.? Funny stuff.? If you ever want to find a movie or tv show you can’t find anywhere else, try the Scarecrow video store on Roosevelt and 50th.? They have everything!
This Sunday we enjoyed services at Fairview, then Leigh went to spend some time working on quilts for Project Linus at Pacific Fabrics up on Northgate Way.? Morgan spent some time with Loren & Dora at their house and Kevin & the boys went over to Maple Leaf Park and spent some quality time in the batting cage.? They even let me hit a little bit.
At 5, we headed back to Fairview for a nice time watching a video from Anderson about the music of the Church of God over the years.? It was really good.? One amazing thing they showed was a “choir” of 12 pianists!? They played double on 6 grand pianos and even had a director!? It was pretty amazing.
Back at home, I (Kevin) spent some time out in the yard until dark, tying up raspberry vines (transplants from Uncle Mas’s garden) and cleaning up the tiger lilly bed.? Need to figure out what’s eating the tiger lilies and see how to protect them…
