Busy Weekend

OK this blog is being typed with one hand so any errors please ignore. My two broken fingers is a whole other blog. We had a very busy weekend, from soccer games to end of year soccer celebration it was non stop. Saturday night the girls and I went to Cinderella Ballet and they sat mesmerized the whole time. We got to go with some of our friends and that is always fun for the girls and ,e.

Then Sunday morning we went to our pool for the first time this year as a family. The water was a little cold but the girls still loved to be in the water.

Then Sunday night we had our end of the season soccer celebration and then Charley played in the coaches game. It was so HOT outside. The girls and I spent most of our time in the shade trees. This year soccer was great. Charley helped coach her team this year and she loved it. Kylee did great this year making 3 goals and having a great time. The girls had fun briefly watching Charley play.

Kylee Celebration with Us!

This past Friday night Charley and I planned a special family night to honor Kylee on a great Kindergarten year. Her graduation is this Wednesday but we have swim lessons every night this week and a full weekend so this was the only chance to do this and we didn't want to miss it. Our plan was to take Kylee to Melting pot with the rest of us and get a Chocolate fondue (this girl loves chocolate)and we bought her a charm bracelet with a heart with a cross in the middle and tell her all the reasons we are proud of her and her Kindergarten year. She loved every minute of our night and kept telling us thank you over and over. Katie loved it just a much and is ready to be bigger so she can have the bracelet (I am not ready for her to be bigger yet). We are so proud of Kylee this year. She really has had a great start with school and loves it. Infact she is sad that school is ending (I am not). She is a very responsible little girl. Every morning she gets up to her alarm clock, gets dressed, brushes her teeth and hair and then comes down stairs. She has a great attitude every morning and is ready to go to school. Her teacher has said great things about her all year and she is such a sweet friend to her classmates. I know I am bragging on her but that is OK:) Charley and I told her at dinner that we want her to remember that Christ is the center of everything and if she can do that then everything else will fall into place. With a full week of Kindergarten fun ahead of us, I can't' believe I am close to having a first grader. We are so proud of her and love her so much:) Way to go Kylee! Oh and a little side note-the chocolate fondue was a huge hit and a really fun way to hang out as a family. I would suggest it to anyone. We only got the small size and it was still good for all of us and Charley and I weren't tempted to eat too much!

100th Post and Ice Cream Man

This is my 100th post. I can't believe it. When I first started blogging I didn't know if I would even keep it up but here I am 100 post later. I really love it because it is an easy way to journal our life. I am almost finished editing my first blurb book of my blog so it will be on paper too. We have had a great weekend. Charley's family was in town so Saturday we spent the day with them, watched my nephew play baseball and win his championship game, and spend some fun times with cousins. On Sunday, It was Charley and my 12th wedding anniversary. I love that guy so much and thank God for him daily. My inlaws took the girls to their cousins house for the day and night and Charley and I had a date day and night! Then today we went and picked up the girls and came home. Then tonight the girls had a first. They got to stop the ice cream man and get ice cream. To be honest I am always a little hesitant of this but found out today that the ice cream man in our area is great. He and his wife own the franchise for this area and they all have a background check with inspections, etc. The ice cream was great. They had soft serve, slushies and fun snacks. He saw me take pictures and let the girls and Charley tour the truck and peak out the "secret" window. He was a nice man and I would definitely let them get more ice cream from him even though this time they got slushies which were yummy!! Yea to the Ice Cream Man!!

Kylee's First Ever Field Day

Today was Kylee's first ever field day and she loved it. She woke up at 6:15 this morning ready to go. My dad came and watched Katie and Charley took a half day to go watch field day. The kids had a blast and we had fun watching Kylee have fun. It is so different than field day when I was a kid, much more fun without the competitive side. I preferred Kylee's field day to mine. They had 16 stations, alot of them were water stations. They had putt putt golf, obstacle courses, tee ball with wet balls, water slide, water balloon game, and these were just a few. She had a blast with her friends and loved that Charley and I were there:) Kylee keeps saying these was one of her best days ever!!

Fun Pictures of the Girls

Right before Mothers Day I took a few (close to 100) pictures of the girls to frame for my mom and Charley's mom. I wanted to share some of my favorites. I did upload to picasso and photo shop some like the one of Katie with the bandaid showing, well that was photoshopped out.
