I'm a Soccer Mom!!

I decided to sign Reed up for soccer with LYSA Turf Tykes. Kids had to be 3 by July 31st so we barely made the cut off. The program runs for 6 weeks and we go every Saturday morning. So, Saturday was our first day. There were about 300 kids sign up and while they split us up at 2 parks, it sure did seem like we were all at one! It was mass chaos to say the least but hilarious!
Luckily while in the parking lot we ran into Ethan and family. Ethan just changed schools so this was the first time the boys saw each other in about a month. We stuck together and the boys got picked together on a 'team' for the day.
Here they are all decked out in their soccer gear!

Stretching....

More Stretching...

Lilly was on the sideline cheering him on

He was already getting hot

And took a break with Paw Paw Ronnie

Still trying to teach him that he isn't supposed to use his hands.

There he is in action.

Ethan decided he didn't want to play anymore and just take pics. Of course, that started Reed wanting to do the same. I got Reed back out on the field pretty quick but Ethan was done.

Geez, there are those hands again!

He made a goal!! The goal keeper was not too happy but he had blocked several attempts prior to this one.
Whew....that was fun!



Despite the craziness of lugging 2 kids, an ice chest, chairs, etc we really had alot of fun and cant wait until next weekend.
Here is a short video. I would try to load more but they take forever.

Just some randomness...

Well, we really haven't been doing a whole lot since Steven left again...just the normal family typa stuff...so here are just some cute pics from the last month or so...

The morning Steven left

So, I ordered these super cute school bags from etsy....my babies are growing up too fast!



Ready for the first game of the year!



We visited with our cousin Savannah....and tried really hard to get a good pic...failed...

We went swimming...


She is seriously cute if I do say so myself!

We played in a 'boat' at mimi and pawpaw's...

Classic Lilly....doing something she isn't supposed to be doing and thinking one of her faces will get her out of trouble...she really has all of us figured out already!!!

We celebrated Mimi's B-day...we even got PawPaw to wear a party hat!

We played with Anthony.

And sang Happy Birthday...

And licked icing off the cake...(Greta, Anthony's mom, and I kept telling them to stop...too bad we got trumped by mimi and moon telling the boys to do whatever they wanted to!)

Reed didn't last as long as Lilly and she really wanted her brother to wake up to play....this was probably 11:00 at night....mom of the year here!!


That's it for now.....=)
