Sleepover

November 20, 2023

Samantha had her first bunkin’ party…excuse me, sleepover! We had originally said no sleepovers until age 10 but, sometimes you gotta give. She had two of her besties over last Friday night and they had the most fun!

sleepover

Samantha requested dinner at the club.

Robert took the boys to the MBHS football game so it was just us girls. I thoroughly enjoyed my dinner dates…

sleepover

ha! They love to get up and run around but did come back when the food arrived! Β πŸ™‚

sleepover

After dinner they did face masks, nails and all things girly. They attempted to watch the Barbie movie but I think they ended up just playing T Swift and dancing in her room!

Lights out was 10:00…at 10:05 they needed a snack…at 10:30 two of them were in tears…and I think at 11:00 they finally fell asleep. They were back up by 6am and happy as could be!

Love these sweet girls and glad Samantha had fun!

Soccer

November 17, 2023

Wrapping up fall sports with Samantha the soccer star!!

She played on her same team again – with a few additions. This year they had really official uniforms and a name the league gave them. They were Spirit! Not nearly as good as names of years gone by but still just as good at scoring goals!

These girls worked so well together. They are all really learning how to pass and move the ball around. They only lost 1 game the whole season.

Samantha’s footwork continues to be top notch. She also perfected her sneak attack goal where she takes off from the other end of the field when the other team is throwing it in, steals the ball away and scores before the other team even knows what happens! She did it several times this season and it was awesome to watch!!

The girls ended the season with a cold, rainy game but that didn’t bother them. They dominated!!

Unfortunately, the game didn’t go our way. The Jets – who we had beaten twice before! – scored in the second quarter and got the extra point so it was 7-0 going into the half. We finally scored in the 4th quarter and went for 2 to try and win but…no luck. We lost 7-6. Such a bummer but I am so incredibly proud of Spencer and how well he handled himself not only in that game but the whole season. He was a strong leader for the team and made some fantastic plays.

Way to go Raiders! Regular season champs and Super Bowl runners up!
