At Last, Some Movies

These clips are from back in mid-October. Ironically, it is actually warmer now, mid-November, than it was for most of October. This is because I have been daily petitioning God to hold off on the snow until December - really, it is. Anyway, the twins had a soccer tournament at the local public school where they played a total of three (?) ten-minute games. I have no idea who won. I do know that Jacob played centre and Hannah played defense. Dave said that Hannah was probably defense as her teacher could trust her to stay in position. Our little girl was actually quite zealous about guarding the net as she remained almost immobile for the greater part of the game (except for her fabulous save in Video no.2). Jacob was greatly involved in trying to handle the ball, slightly off-target in regard to the net and more than zealous about playing the majority of the game off field. Oh, yes, he also learned how to complain to the referee about being pushed and shoved... It still amazes me how their personalities are exactly as they were in the womb...

And, for purposes of identification - Jacob is wearing the orange shirt - ha, ha. No, really, he is wearing orange with dark pants and a dark green hoody under the orange t-shirt. Hannah is the girl with the fuchsia hoody who is attempting to escape the cold deep within the confines of her sweatshirt' s hood.
