Cheers!

Here is Seb enjoying a delicious dinner (omlette and fries)
 with yummy sparkling apple juice. 
Very light, very fruity, very good. 

More soccer...

Last weekend (yes all weekend….9-5 just like a full time job) Seb had his big tournament. "Big" so they tell me. With over 80 some teams of 8-11 years old, I guess it was a big deal.


 Waiting to come out of the blocks and eyeing up the competition. Seb's team, the ASPTT in yellow, playing the host team and arch enemy Caen Malherbe. (That's the big wig, lots of money team) for the final game. Which ended with pentalty kicks all of which Seb stopped except one! Talk about super stressful!


The trophies…


1st place cheers…



The ASPTT recieved the "fair play" award for their age bracket.


And here is the team's 1st place finish trophy.


Here they are proudly sporting the arch enemy team jersey.
 (Given as a gift for their 1st place finish)

Soccer….

Picnic, sunburn (for me I mean, Stef and Seb just tan) and happy kids.
 Seb's team qualified for a big tournament coming up at the end of May.

A shot of one of the fields where Stef used to play as a kid, and where they had not only soccer but as you can see from the track around the field, bicycle races.


The team hamming it up before playing…


The team after the victories!






Chenedouit…..

 Rescuing our neighbor's poor goat who keeps managing to get his head stuck in the fence. The boys were also good enough to give him some grass and fresh water.



 Clowning around…


And getting back to the apt. what do we see from Seb's bedroom window? A horse enclosure. The city is hosting a big horse event this coming August, so they thought they would give the city folk a preview. There will be free horse riding for two weeks….
Not a bad initiative on the part of the city.
