Finally Friday !!

It's Finally Friday!!!! How often I hear these words. This week was no different, however it was how I felt. The weather was so nice and everyone was exhausted and needed a break. We stopped at the park on the way home and played.

Ryder had watched the girls climb the ropes and decided to give it a try.

Reganne decided she needed to help him or at least supervise.

He did really well climbing up. The down part still needs a little work.

We are so much fun to play with that soon we had new friends climbing with us.

So much for wearing them out. Instead it worked just the opposite. They didn't want to leave.

Lady Bugs and Explorers Pizza Party

There was no soccer this week due to Fall Break at school. The Ladybugs were invited to a pizza party with Washington County Sheriff's Explorers at the Sheriff's Office. Reganne was so excited to go. She asked me if I could teach her to drive so she could go. My response was no, I will take you. Good thing since there were so many people at the party. Her shyness kicked in and she wouldn't leave my side.

What a silly group

It was such a great party. The girls really enjoyed themselves. I was impressed with the Explorers they were so well mannered and quick to help each other and the girls. If they continue with the group they will be awesome law enforcement officers.

Soccer Week #5

Week 5 was all about team work. We were short two girls for this game. Reganne, Angel, and Tailor played the whole game. By working together they were able to each score a goal. The Purple Princess were a great team.

Defense

Working together we can make it.

Score!!

They were so tired at the end of this game, but all smiles. They were awesome!!

Reganne 6th Birthday

Finally, Reganne is 6 years old. She has waited for this day for along time. Everything has been measured by her birthday since Christmas was over.

Reganne & Unicorn Pillow Pet

This is the one thing she has said she wanted since after Christmas. She was very specific the Pink & Purple Unicorn was what she wanted. She has slept with it each night and carries it around with her.

More Presents!!

Birthday Cake... She ordered this one all by herself with the baker at Harmons.

Happy Birthday to you sweet Reganne.

Dig into the cake.

She had a wonderful birthday weekend. Monday night she asked me if her birthday was finally over? I told her yes at Midnight. Can't it be over know? My reply was go to sleep Reganne.

Reganne & Chucky Cheese Birthday

Reganne has asked for months to go to Chucky Cheese. Each time we visit Grandma & Grandpa we haven't had time. When Reganne was planning her birthday she really wanted Brinton to be there. We decided to grant both wishes. Go to Chucky Cheese in Orem and invite Brinton to come along. We had to wait until after her soccer game to leave. We then made the long drive to Grandma's house. The whole way she kept asking if we were close yet.

The Pizza Dinner... Cardboard tasted better.

Rylee and her pizza, she soon ate all the toppings and left the crust.

Ryder found the monster truck to ride. That was how he spent his tokens.

The kids had a lot of fun. Thank you Uncle Randy for bringing Brinton.

Fire Station Fieldtrip

Ryder has been so fascinated with firetrucks and fire stations that I scheduled a visit to the main station. Ryder was all eyes, but wouldn't say a word. We brought along our friend Dacoda.

Rylee, Ryder, Dacoda, Reganne, Fireman Quayle

Exploring the station

They saw the firestation kitchen, office, tv room, and the garage for the trucks. They were able to checkout each truck. Ryder finally started talking by the end of the tour and hasn't stopped since about the fire stations. He told us he wants to be a fireman when he grows up.

Soccer Week #4

Game 4 was the starting of defense. The Dragonflies and Lady Bugs were pretty well matched. This week the coaches had one girl stand at half field to play defense. It took awhile before they caught on. Once they did they were off and running.

Kickoff

Goal!!!

The scramble

The game was over and Reganne scored 3 almost 4 goals. She turned to Dave and told him that she made those for him. She was hot and sweaty, but all smiles.
