Spring Soccer

Well we just finished yet another season of spring soccer. It is one of my favorite things to watch kids do. Especially the little ones when the run in packs. I coached both of my girls teams other years but decided to just enjoy the moments and cheer from the sides. When I played soccer growing up I could hear my mom's high pitch voice above all others and swore I would never do that to my kids, but guess what... that's me. But the best part is that I always knew she was there year after year, game after game. Dad always showed up on his way home from work too.
Anyway the girls are really learning the game. Camry's team had a a real slow start and even made a few goal for the other team so I offered her $1.00 per goal and $17.00 later and a big smile on her face we ended the season. Her picture says it all. Jaiden plays striker on her team (we made the same deal with her years ago,) and no she didn't forget so we owed her plenty too. Jaiden just made a competitive soccer team called Nitro.. and loves it.

Look at that focus.

Zoo/Bees Game

My friend Emily invited us a couple months ago to go to the zoo with her and her kids. So we loaded them all up and took off for Salt Lake City. The problem is she has all boys and I have all girls and they pretend they don't like each other, but they sure do play and tease each other alot.
We went to the Spaghetti Factory to eat and then hit the Bees game before going to the zoo. Our favorite thing at the zoo was a gorilla that decided to show the kids that he could poop and then eat it too. They had to go back to see him twice. It was a fun eventful day.

Camry loved the bumper cars.

After Camry talked the family into going on "The Rocket" she measured an inch too short. She was barely able to go on the Colossus

Me and Jaiden ready for lift off !!!!

Me and the girls heading up to the Colossus. Jaiden screamed during the entire ride and closed her eyes. Jason had to sit this one out. Their favorite ride was the Rattlesnake Rapids where they got drenched.

Of course they had to try out the kiddie rides too.

Finishing up the school year!

Jaiden just completed 3rd grade and Camry graduated from kindergarten at Providence Elementary. My little girls are growing up.

A New Blogger

Ok... so I am a new blogger. I thought I would only do this if I moved away, but I am creating a family blog. I hope this wont take away from my scrapbooking, but add to what I already love to do. I have enjoyed reading blogs from friends and family and hope this will help me keep in touch with everyone.
