Summer has officially begun at the Price house, and so far it has been noticeably better than last summer.
We joined our neighborhood club pool last summer. We had high hopes that Wyatt would enjoy being outside, playing in the water, soaking up the sun (as much as we can allow a very pale red-head to soak), but it didn't go as well as we'd hoped. But still, we plugged along.
We went several weekdays, just to decompress at the end of the workday. The best part about our pool is the ability to bring your own food and drinks in at any time. We brought dinner and a cooler and setup shop for the evening. Sounds amazing, right? Well, not with stubborn ol' Wyatt.
Wyatt has been "not-so-easy" from Day 3 of his life... you know, the day that we all went home from the bliss of the hospital and the real world met us with a fist full of colic and broken dreams? That was the day. Even last summer, he was a hard kid to please. Even the pool, the BYOB, the bliss of summer couldn't make him super happy. We toughed it out, and now we've found ourselves to the Summer of 2017...
And bam - just like that, we have a kiddo who actually has started to enjoy things in life! I know it is hard to believe, but it is true! He has enjoyed our first week of pool membership and has even ventured around the kiddie pool on his own. We have now instituted a standing Wednesday night pool night with my #MomTribe and ensuing brood that comes with them.
All in all, I am so thankful for summer. And I am so thankful that we can start enjoying it all more with a growing boy!

The semifinals of the MAAC field hockey championship were the end of the road for Rider, with the Broncs losing to Fairfield 1-0 on Nov. 2.
Rider closed out the regular season winning seven of its last nine contests, earning the team the No. 2 seed in its 19th straight postseason appearance. The Broncs squared up against third-seed Fairfield — the defending MAAC Tournament champions.
Rider scored 50 goals and averaged almost three goals per contest during the regular season. Fairfield’s defense countered that by only allowing 28 goals all season.
“Traditionally we have a very good game with Fairfield. We are very good friends with the coach, and everytime we step on the field we know it’s going to be a battle,” said Head Coach Lori Hussong. “Their defense has been exceptional. They have the defender of the year and the freshman player of the year, Luzi Persiehl, who was phenomenal. We knew we couldn’t go through her. We had to go around her and their goalkeeping has been good as well. We made some adjustments in the second half, and we were able get a couple of corners. We just couldn’t cash in on our opportunities when we had them.”
Sophomore goalie Lena Vandam, who was named the MAAC Goalkeeper of the Year on Nov. 1, recorded six saves for Rider. Senior defenseman Alison Amen registered one defensive save for the Broncs as well.
“We knew we were going to start out slow because we were such a young team. We had phenomenal leadership coming from Jess Randazzo and Alison Amen. They really did a nice job of making the freshman feel comfortable along with the other juniors on the team,” said Hussong. “The freshmen who were out on the field this year with us learned some valuable lessons and the experience alone is going to help carry them along the next three years. Their future is very bright.”
Hussong added that Randazzo and Amen embody exactly what Rider field hockey players should leave the program looking like, and that the team is very appreciative of their service.
Freshmen forward Carly Brosious, junior Tess Coorens and sophomore Lena Vandam were named to the All-MAAC First Team.
Brosious and Vandam were both honored with MAAC weekly awards twice over the course of the season. Brosious was also named National Rookie of the Week by Synapse Sports on Oct. 16. She scored 10 goals and had two multi-goal games.
Freshman forward Tess van Ommeren, senior midfielder Jessica Randazzo and defender Kaitlin Flemming were named to the All-MAAC Second Team.
The Broncs will return all but two players next year giving them hope for another successful season.
