Merry Christmas 2022

Merry Christmas!! It was an awesome day! We went to Gramma and Daddy Jim's house on Christmas Eve and had a delicious lasagna. We went home and opened Christmas Eve presents - matching jammies and legos - Christmas tradition! Aidan got the pyramids, Emmy got Dumbledore's office, Aoife got Starry Night and Declan got the Minecraft Farm. All were a hit except Declan's this year! 
Christmas morning was perfect - everyone slept in until 8!!! So many awesome gifts - Aidan got his Christmas/graduation gift - a trip to Italy to play football in April, Emmy got a mini fridge for her room, Aoife got a new phone and Declan got a hover board! 
We had Daddy Jim and Gramma and Tony for dinner - traditional turkey dinner - with lots of leftovers!!!
It's been an fantastic holiday - so amazing to enjoy being all together!!!!

Declan at Swim Camp

 Declan had four days of swim camp this week! I am so proud of him - with just 4 weeks of swim lessons he went from not being able to swim 10 yards to passing a 50 yard swim test and being able to hold his own all day at camp!! I may just yet have a swimmer!!

Wrestling - Langley Invitational 2022

 So much has changed since Aidan's freshman year when Potomac competed at the last Langley Invitational. COVID really put a damper on wrestling and this tournament was a casualty. Aidan lost his first match but fought all the way back to win every other match on the way to the end of the consolation bracket and medaled!! It was a huge tournament and I am so proud of his determination - it was an exhausting day!




Emmy's Coaching Debut

 Emmy and Aidan are working at the St James this winter! They are working at the scoring tables for the winter lacrosse league but Emmy got to work at the AU(Athlete's United) game and coach the 2026's during halftime!
