Game Seven, Game 1

It's a beautiful day but chilly enough to wear jackets or at least long sleeves.  They were slow to get started and needed a little more time to warm up.



And she scored her goal of the season.
She was beaming!!!!

A hug from Dad or a snuggle to keep warm?
Either way a great picture.
We have an hour between games.  Rylee was off to ref a u8 team.  Not enough time to run errands instead lets relax and let the kids play on the jungle gym.

Game Seven, Game Two

Another beautiful day for soccer games.  It was a little chilly but Ryder refused to wear long sleeves because he gets to hot.  After a quick practice the game started.  These boys were ready to play.




Dang!!!! I looked away just as Ryder made his first goal by head butting the ball into the goal.  So much for arguing with Rylee neither one of us won.

We have time for one more activity.....

6th Grade Star Party


Another busy day at school.  Rylee had her final theater performance and parents were invited.  Dave was able to attend since I was on kindergarten duty.  She did an awesome job and aced the performance with an old lady accent that the teacher loved.

Same day but at night was the 6th Grade Star Party for parents to help students have hands on with telescopes.  They were also able to make rockets and with a tennis ball show the parents what they have been learning.  My only complaint is when you look through the telescope I want to see it life size not just a spot even a glowing spot.

Rylee had fun with her friends and didn't want to go home.

Look What Followed Dave Home!!!!

Well so much for catching up on boring chores instead Dave had other ideas.  He found another car and this time it was a local one.  It only required a 20 minute ride to Winchester Hills.

He has caradar (car radar)
The kids were in love.
Ryder waited in the driveway with his sunglass, Capt America Shield, and no shoes.
Pretty nice looking.
However, Dave is the only one who can drive it.  The rest of us can't see over the dashboard,

They are in love.
Dave better watch his back.  They are all planning on which car they want when he dies.  Ryder asked what the next car would be?????

Goalie Saturday

Surprise!!! Reganne volunteered to be goalie this week not one quarter but 3.  The rest of the team let out a breath of relief they were free to play.

Most of the game they stayed well away from her.
Will this hold me?
Watch my dance moves!!!
They scored 2 goals off her.  One sailed right over her head and landed neatly behind her.
Pretty amazing, but she felt really bad.
Love that face and how proud she was.

Afterwards she inform me that she had done her duty on goalie and could now play the rest of the season.  When did she get so smart?

Same Time Again

The second game happened at the same time but different end of the fields.  Lucky for us that Dad was off work so he watched Ryder's game.  However, he didn't have a camera to take pictures so this was all we had.


Getting instructions.

That is how it's done!!!!

Games over and time to play catch up or time for lunch.  Everyone voted for lunch.

Rylee's Field Trip

End of the trimester at school and time for the kids to have some fun and learn at the same time.  They divided the kids up between the local state parks.  Rylee's group went to the Red Cliff's Preserve.  She begged to take a camera, but no iTouches or iPhones allowed.  We found our old camera for her to take but couldn't get ride of the date stamp.  She took some amazing pictures.






She had a great time.  This was a  pretty amazing week with a debate day as well with support from the local college.  She loved debating and earn high marks from the panel.  What will the next trimester bring?
