Tree Play

Sadly, our neighborhood lost another tree today.  The kids made the best of the downed tree however.  I love this about kids.  Enjoying the simple things in life.  Yay!

3-0





M is playing soccer this Fall. Today they won, 3-0!  That's great for sure but I was most pleased with M's progress.  This was only the third game and she made tremendous improvement (the whole team did actually).  She was aggressive, she wasn't playing with her hair, she ran hard, she had some pretty fancy footwork...kicking the ball backwards, she made some awesome saves as goalie, she really had fun.  I saw a spark in her that I had never seen before.  Kind of cool to see!!

(Yes, that's a flower headband.  That's our fashion M!)

Harbor Country

We spent the weekend in Harbor Country, MI with a good friend of ours at his family beach house.  It was super relaxing and the "second best vacation ever" according to M (what was first I asked.... Mexico, more, moremore, more).  Horseshoes, crochet, swinging, bike ride, walking along the beach collecting rocks, sand play, lots of water activities, crazy bloody marys.......simply perfect!
