Two games, two boys in soccer, two different places.... ONE mom! ummm... let's see how this is going to work....
I still laugh about Brecon's very first soccer game. Put simply, he was an emotional wreck! By halftime, only 2 of his team-mates were actually still playing, the rest were on the sidelines sitting by their parents or crying. I couldn't stop giggling. Ben tried his best to encourage, but to no avail. Now this week: COMPLETE 360. Brecon was aggressive, but not mean, he chased after the ball, he KICKED the ball (HOORAY!) It was amazing! After 5 minutes, it was time to leave for Caels game which was being played at a field 20 minutes away. Thankfully my sweet neighbor offered to bring Brecon home so he could finish his game, we couldn't take him away when he was doing so well! Problem solved.

So we made it to Cael's game just in time. That kid was on fire! His dribbling and foot control were amazing, down the field --SCORE!!! Kick off, dribble, down the field... SCORE!!! He was kicking them pretty hard into the net, they couldn't be stopped! By the end of the game Cael insists he made 7 goals, but I only counted 6. I only wish the video camera's battery hadn't died, the game was quite fun to watch, at least from the point of view of a proud mamma! Way to go Cael!
And when it is all over.... EVERYONE in the TUB!! even the BABY!
WHEW!! What a Wednesday!

I can't believe Conner's walking! Fun soccer pics. I wonder if we'll have Lily do it next year, or wait one more year? The rock climbing looks like fun. We miss you!
BECKY! For some reason my blog hasn't been showing your blog updates, and I just saw that your blog has been going on and on with out me!!! That last one I saw was "Tank you very much." But I am having fun reading it!! It looks like you are having an amazing time! I love the castles! I have loved the "sleeping beauty" castle since forever! That has always been my favorite castle, and I've always wanted to visit it! So you getting to visit it makes me so jealous! lol. I am SO coming to visit you!!! (Someday...I hope.) Miss you guys!!
Wow, sounds like you've got yourself some little athletes! That is awesome! My blog has done the same thing with not showing your blog updates. It is always so fun to get on your blog and hear about your amazing adventures!
Oh boy how we miss you guys. Everytime I pass by your neighborhood off of Wetmore I think about you all. Yours was a great family that will stay with me forever. You touched our hearts and stayed in our memories. My synapses are burned with your lovely words the family home evenings we were invited to, the work you gave us, the food you burned *BEN* (I mean made for us on that wonderful pit that I love so much) I am taking great care of it. My husband bought me some things that go in there. Thank you for always taking our calls when we were sick, ailing or just plain ole needed a band aid for my kids boo boos. They loved the way you always made them feel better.
Germany looks so amazing and I am glad the boys seem to be adjusting. We miss you guys a ton. Life is crazy here. Keep taking these amazing pics. I love them. Makes me want to come vist;)
