The Weekly Update

Friday was filled with field trips and true to life days.  Kaylee went to Fountain Creek, Jacob went to Cheyenne Falls Canyon, and Rebecca had Immigration Day at Ellis Island.  She had to do a pedigree chart of where all of our ancestors had come from.  They had lots of fun stations that depicted how it would be if you were trying to come to the United States.  She was from France and couldn't wait to tell everyone Bonjour.

My parents came up on Thursday and then Doug and Bethany came to stay with us on Friday with this cute little one.

He has such pretty blue eyes.

We went out to eat with them and my parents and then came back and played a fun train game.  My boys played with us and are now begging to get this game.  Ticket to Ride


The girls played in The Pride of the Rockies soccer tournament on Saturday.  Each of the girls had fun team shirts for the tournament.  I really liked Kaylee's.

Kaylee's team didn't have subs, which made for quite exhausting games.  Her legs usually hurt at the end of practices and games because of all her hustling.  She was amazing in her second game and this is how she left the second game.

  It was sooo hot and windy this weekend.


Rebecca's coach had these cute sweatshirts for the girls after their second game.  On the back it says "Eat our Pixie Dust".  Their team is the Pixies.  They didn't do very well either.

Dad worked on my wood project.  It looks amazing.  I'm dying to finish it, but this will be such a busy week.  He also went around fixing scooters, soccer goals and seeing what we can do with the trampoline after the wind took it for a spin.  Thank you so much dad!  Mom went to all the soccer games and kept things organized here as well.  She brought Ashley a pretty little tea pot, fruit punch and invitation cards for a tea party.  Ash was excited to say the least.  We sure appreciate all you two do for us!
