Fall Ball started
We have 2 playing soccer this fall. Ellie has been dying to play ever since Samantha started two years ago. Mean ol mom wasn’t ready for it though. They are both doing well so far. Ellie took some adjustment to having a late night practice after a full day of school, but otherwise, she can run with the best of them. Samantha and her teammates are finally using some basic skills that the coaches have been hammering in for years now. She can dribble!
Together, again.
It has been a long time since the two girls have been at the same place, with the same hours. We have arrived, at last, again.
They are pumped to be starting school, and are looking forward to a great year.
Easter 2015
We started our long Easter weekend with some egg dyeing. Don’t mind all the scaffolding and ladders in the background. It’s a never-ending construction site at our house.
On Easter morning, the Easter bunny was clever in hiding baskets. The girls searched and searched for their baskets. Samantha found hers first. It was in the dryer.
Ellie could not find hers.
But all of us pitched in to help her. She was finally successful! It was in the oven.
In taking this family shot, I think it was the quickest I have ever taken Easter pictures before in my life. No one cried. No one was mad. No one stormed off in a dramatic fashion – it was unlike all previous Easter family pictures.
Sadly, this will be one of the last pictures with this big oak tree (behind Brian). About 3 weeks later, it fell. There’s that drama. I thought it had skipped us.
1st Grade Nativity Play
Samantha was a Narrator for the 1st Grade Nativity Play. She was very nervous, but practiced and practiced. It was quite a production, and the entire school attended. She did such a great job! I was proud at how well she enunciated and read her lines.
