This is how I have been Feelin' lately

1st soccer Game

Zach's first soccer game went off without a hitch. He rocked. He scored 3 goals! We were so excited.

Zachs 2nd game didn't go as well he only scored one goal because there was this awesome kid who always got the ball on the other team. It kinda sucked because my in-laws actually got to go to this game because they switch off between Zach' s and my neice' s game across the field. I wish they could have seen the awesome game the week before instead of the kind of sad game this week. BUT Zach is getting much better and truth be told it's worth it because he is having a blast!The snacks halfway and after are wonderful!! YummY

Swing Set Fun

So we got this swing set from our old bishop who was selling it on our ward Trading Post. We figured we will be here for a while and it would be great. So we got it before summer started and it was so stinkin' hot we didn't use it much. Now that it is starting to cool we are using it a ton now. We wanted to stain it so it would be weather proof. That was the project last week. It got half done. The boys worked hard.

First day of School

After much consideration, prayer, and thought we decided to wait a year before putting Zach into Kindergarten because he missed the deadline in age. He is so bright and his preschool teacher told me he was so ready but I kept looking towards high school and I wanted him to be older and more mature when he gets to tackle those challenges. Plus I really want to pick what school I put him in next year. He will definitely keep me on my toes this year his teacher said she was having him do first grade work. YIKES! The first day she gave everyone a packet full of edible rocks, a puzzle and a magic ball which he insisted we would go straight home and throw it in the tub. Here is his special magic trick. :-) IT was a towel how cool is that.

Bubble Gum

My mom got the kids a bubble gum dispenser at Chuck E cheese. Hmmm.... I had to hide it after a week. They still get some bubblegum but now they are not as obsessed. :-) I remember the 2nd day we had it, Tyler figured out how to take the top off and in the process the thing tipped over and gum balls went everywhere. Much to Tyler's delight, it was a free for all and his hands moved so fast shoving the pieces in his mouth before I could get to him. I wish I had a good picture of that. I hope my dentist doesn't see this. LOL. :-P
