Another birthday

Can you believe our little Meg turned 11 this past week? We had plenty of pre-teen drama around the house with all the girls running around.

Fairy Princesses

Happy 5th birthday Kate! She had a "fairy princess" party with her little friends on Friday and then celebrated her birthday on Sunday with her family and grandparents. Fairy costumes, sugar overload, and lots of presents --- pretty much heaven for a 5 year old girl!

Soccer Weather?

Last week the weather for Meg's match against Boise was sunny and above 80 degrees. This week her team traveled to McCall where it was windy and below freezing. They managed to beat McCall 3-1 dispite the cold with Meg scoring 2 goals and 1 assist.

Firsts...

Meg is our first kid to get braces (but unfortunately won't be the last). She is really enjoying the expanders that were put in this past week.

Will he ever really walk?

Yes he can! (at 17 months)

Fall Sports

The kids are back in action. Meg is playing in a competitive soccer league with the team BC United "Lightning Strikes". So far they are 1-1. She scored two goals in their opening game but was shutout in the second. Ben is in his second season of optimist flag football. He is the quarterback this year and has scored three touchdowns in his first two games. His team won their first game but tied their second.

New House

We finally completed construction on our new house and moved in a few months ago. We love having space. Our old house felt a little snug with four kids. Now we can go for days without seeing them :)
