Soccer-time!

YAY!! It's soccer season again! This year we signed Elizabeth up to play.

Then Jacquie signed on as Coach for Elizabeth's team. I am the Assist. Coach and after reading the paperwork I'm also the Team Manager all on top of being a players Mom! lol


Anyway, we had a bunch of practices and the we hoped the girls were picking up what they needed to for the games. We finally got our schedule and our first game was Saturday.
Our team's color is green and we are the Wildcats.

The girls did awesome!! They got out there and everything clicked! It was so fun watching them play!! Yes, our girls got several goals too! I think some of them were actually counting how many. lol We were very proud of all the girls!

Busy Summer!

Well school has started and everyone is getting settled into the new schedules. Everyone is in school full time now and I am at home alone. I am still babysitting and I have added a couple more kids so I definately won't be lonely!

We've been busy this summer. Getting the yard and trying to keep it nice. Going on vacation - a nice drive to Texas and back, stopping at the Grand Canyon and Albequerque, then in Denver to see an online friend. We had a wonderful time! We didn't want to leave Texas!!! (the kids wanted to stay as well!)
So since my last post. We've planted flowers in the flower boxes, most are done blooming now! Jacquie has turned 18yo!! Marshall is now 16yo!!
Douglas graduate highschool!!
Ok I have to say, where has the time gone??!! They've all grown up way too fast!
Elizabeth had her Tap dance performance and she did awesome!

We took 2 weeks + and drove to Texas, stopping at the Grand Canyon & in Albequerque to see the sites. We had a wonderful time. The sites along the way were pretty awesome and fun. We enjoyed our time with Jenny's family while we were there! We also visited with Marc and his family and got to see the new baby. What a cutie!

Home again, Donnie is working too much, kids enjoying rest of summer break, fair time. Elizabeth got to perform at the fair with her Tap class.


Now things are back to normal. Kids are back in school. Jacquie is a senior now, Marshall a junior and Elizabeth is in all day Kindergarten! She is so excited and she totally loves it!
Now that things are back to normal, I'll try to do better about staying up to date.
For those that are interested, I also updated my Scrapbook blog (link on sidebar).
