Beautiful morning for soccer







This is my last weekend to watch the kids play soccer since I will be out of town next weekend for a race. Griffin had a powerful kick...unfortunately into the other team's goal. However...it was powerful & he went for it with purpose! He was a bit upset, but personally, I think this is a right of passage! A little drama on the field with some dads taking things up a notch. People...it is only a game!!! Kids do need to learn the rules ( and this kid definitely could learn about good sportsmanship)- but lets all just try to remember this is 4/5 year old youth soccer!!! Ps- I love how Sydney & Josie come to support their brother, yet multitask & read for school (or as in this picture...sydney plays her DS).

The Cavs beat the Magic!




Lee & I had a fun night out-we went to dinner (alone) & then to see The Cavs vs. the Magic. I am not a huge basketball fan, but at this point I am thankful for the Cavs since they really are our only hope at this point. Plus, it is so much fun to go to any sporting event & of course have a night out with Lee. The win made it even better.

Headliner's Part II





The 2nd show was great. First, my friend Rose treated me to a soy latte with a shot of peppermint (my new fav) so I was very awake. Second, the show was even better the 2nd night. We were minus Josie but Griffin (in his pj's) hung through the 1st 3 acts until he declared he was tired & he was out within a second. Once again, Sydney seemed to be enjoying herself- which is what it is all about. Way to go Sydney- we are once again very proud of you.

Lasers play hard




A very tough, exciting game today. Josie played great on defense & had some great offensive shots. Unfortunately, the Lasers came up short. They played their little hearts out. Oh well...looking forward on to next weekend!


Saturday Soccer




A little out of focus today...the Red Bulls played a good game against team yellow. Definitely as the season moves forward Griffin is getting more involved...he definitely has the snack and water breaks down to a tee!

Saturday morning


Usually Saturday mornings are just as hectic as M-F... but due to the time change AND a later soccer game, we were able to relax- I even got a long run in! Best of all...our friends the Zollingers wanted to know if we wanted fresh, homemade cinnamon rolls? Um...hello, YES, YES, YES! what a treat (and a sugar rush)...thank you Terri & Rob. What an amazing way to start our Saturday!

Fall Headliner's Show
















Last night we saw The Fall Headliner's Performance- totally cute & some of us felt old because the "classics" performed were the songs that we grew up on. Because I went on the field trip to D.C./Virginia with many of these kids- it was so great to see them perform again. Griffin passed out 3/4 of the way through the show. Tonight is another show- Sydney we love watching you perform.
