Then we didn’t get one from Older Toddlers in 2014 because he wouldn’t sit for the photographer. Yep, his teacher said he just wouldn’t do it. Oh well.

2015 in the Twos (such a cheerful smile)…

2016 in the Threes showed major improvement! Love that little smile!

Soccer star!

November 7, 2019

That’s a wrap on Sunday soccer for our little soccer star! This girl was on fire out there every single game! She had some pretty impressive footwork by the end of the season and was so good at turning the ball around and getting it into that goal! Each week we, of course, had plenty of pink to go along with the yellow jersey!

Two weeks ago we had team photos and, while I’m sure it turned out cute, I didn’t buy this photo…

and just took this one instead!  🙂

The Lemons! L to R: Coach Jones, Vivian, Jane, Betsy, Julia, Samantha, Leslie Hales

This particular game got pretty messy! There were a few tears when the girls got muddy but most – including Samantha – didn’t mind it one bit!

Hustling after that ball!

Dirty Lemons!

After the final game last weekend everyone got a trophy! Hooray!

A little sunshine in the eyes of my sunshine!

Halloween!

November 5, 2019

By the time the boys got home from school on Halloween the rain had stopped and the excitement was high! While it wasn’t raining, it was still freezing cold with temps only in the 40s. That didn’t bother my crew too much though. With a few costume adjustments we were ready to go hang with the neighbors by 3:30!

Boba Fett, Olympic Gymnast, and Ronald Acuna Jr!

We eventually made our way down to the big neighborhood party, trick or treating along the way. The party was fun and complete with pony rides this year!

These pics of Samantha and her buddy, Jack, made me laugh!

Maxwell chose to go over to another neighborhood to hang with some of his buddies and while I really missed having him with us, I’m glad he was having fun with his friends…and I was able to call him using our new flip phone!

By 7:30 we were trick or treated out, wind burned from the cold wind, and happy to be home! Robert picked up Maxwell and we were all back together to check out the giant candy haul!

Happy Halloween!!

Halloween Day

November 4, 2019

I was up bright and early to hit the gym in costume on Halloween morning! My friends from the 5:15am crew and I all decided to go as Team USA! It was a little tricky to find adult size leotards but Amazon pulled through!

Samantha followed in my footsteps for her costume for the school parade. Look at this Olympic Gymnast…

Have you ever seen anything cuter? I give her a perfect 10!! The parade at school was cute…and also sadly, inside. The weather during the day on Halloween was terrible – so cold and really rainy. Samantha still had fun seeing all of her classmates dressed up and having a party at school though.

Thankfully the rain stopped around 2:00 and, while it didn’t warm up, it did make for a dry night! Pics to come!
