November 1 - 15 Indoor Soccer and Report Card

After losing the first game to the Ann Arbor United Scorpions 3-1 (after being up 1-0 at halftime) the Ypsi Dragons came back strong in the second game and spanked the Ann Arbor USA Blue 7-1...it was a total dominating effort, the kids were clicking all game long! Some bad phone pics from Wide World

A noticeable black mark is a C- on "Listening: Focus on what is being said"...We had this issue for a while now at home! We are working on it:-)

In addition, 0 days absent and 0 days tardy!

Kostas was also accepted to the Oratorical Society Mondays after school and he will also do the Chess Club for 4 Wednesdays after school.

Game 3 was against the Ann Arbor United Scorpions again, the team that beat us 3-1. What a total turnaround. We beat the crap out of them and went up 4-0 until we let one in in the end for a final 4-1. I am not sure who was more happier the kids or the parents...We really liked rubbing it in to those parents:-) who looked shocked and dejected, oh yeah sweet revenge!
The kids are clicking incredibly the past two games, we thought we had no chance against the Ann Arbor and Saline teams but we are doing very well thank you.






Dad went to the UofM-EMU basketbal game, it was too easy for UofM 81-50. It will be a long year for EMU, very young but talented team.




Sophia is showing tendencies to enjoy writing and drawing a lot more lately.


Fluffy was a bad boy the past week. He had a few accidents around the house so we have a dillema, we let him out and gets beat up by Bobbie and we let him in and once in a while he leaves a present somewhere around the house....Any tips appreciated:-)
