Go Comets!

These are pictures and videos from W's last soccer practice for this season and his soccer party--where he got his second soccer trophy. But, more importantly to W, he had pizza and cupcakes.

Bowling--YIKES!

Well, this weekend W, L, and I went bowling with my friend Tracy and her daughters Lindsay and Jillian. I have a picture of the final score--I will not be posting it as the results are too embarrassing. Let's just say that Tracy and I got "schooled" in bowling by the 3 and 4 year olds--to be fair, they did have bumpers and they were not distracted by the 1 year olds being carried on our hips or tugging on our legs--I'm not making excuses or anything.


I am not sure why I video taped sideways. This L trying to jump. I love that stage before they actually learn to jump but are trying really hard.

On to Mississippi















After Florida, we went on to Mississippi for a couple of nights to visit Uncle Kyle, Aunt Misty, and Zachary. The first night, I took the children to the beach after supper--to find shells, only. Well, L couldn't keep or little self away from the water. I think she felt like she hit the pigpen jackpot! She got in the water, rolled in the sand, and tried to eat the sand--she at one point dipped her pacifier in the sand and put it in her mouth. W mostly liked playing in the sand and running around with Zachary. They all laid down to make sand angels together. W and L were both soaking wet and sandy so they had to strip down before getting in the car. The next day, we got in the pool for a little while. W and L LOVED it. W was a little afraid b/c there was no spot where he could touch bottom. All in all, it was fun.

More Flordia Visiting














We did a lot of visiting on our trip. Great Neenee and Aunt Deborah haven't seen W and L in about a year. Sky and Wright never met L, so you know how long it's been since they have seen W--since we moved from Mississippi, at least. L warmed up to Great Neenee instantly and Sky, as well--everybody else had to work a for it. W had a lot of fun playing with the boys. They played a little bit of t-ball and a little bit more of soccer. The boys were impressed with W's switching between his left and right legs to maneuver the ball. We had a great visit and was nice to see everyone after such a gap.

Visiting the Benningfields









We took a trip last week to visit some friend and family. We were able to visit and stay with long standing friends. William and Lauren met Keegan and Koen and they definitly hit it off. Both boys were partners in mischief--3-year-old boys are fabulous handfuls. Keegan is a little mother and likes enforcing the rules--she did a great job keeping the boys in line. Lauren was in heaven in Keegan's closet. Keegan has all sorts of dress up shoes, Lauren insisted on trying all of them on even if it meant breaking her neck--the price of beauty...
