SOCCER STUD

Well, I knew the time would come when Bubby would start Soccer and our running around town would intensify. Well, it's here. Brennan has games on Tuesday's and Saturday's and still has practice on Monday's and Wednesday's. BOY!!!! What a deal!!!. Anyway, Bub's had his first game on Tuesday night and his team won 3-0. Bub's scored a goal but it was in the wrong goal...OH WELL...he looked good doing it. It didn't count though because the ball had gone out of bounds about a minute earlier and the coach kept blowing the whistle....I guess with all the excitement they couldn't hear the whistle and didn't want to stop. They are SOOO CUTE at this age out there playing soccer. We're COUGARS this year. WAY TO GO BUBBY!!!!!

GO CARDINALS!

JR and I were treated like kings and queens over the weekend by one of his friends. He scored us a couple of tickets to the Cardinals game vs. the Marlins on Sunday, September 7th. We arrived two hours before the game and ate and drank everything prior to the game in the Cardinals' Clubhouse. Then we walked out to our seats which were 4 rows behind home plate. Where we also ate and drank everything we wanted. Those were the best darn nachos I've ever had in my life (that goes for the pretzel too). The CARDINALS WON and Pujols hit a homerun in the first inning. After the game, we went to Ameristar and checked into our room which was AWESOME. I was afraid to touch anything. Then we went to the VIP Star room at the Casino and sat and ate and drank there until they kicked us out at 10pm. JR and I did some gambling until 1am and then back to our room. We got up the next day and gambled some more and then were treated to breakfast. IT WAS THE BEST WEEKEND WE'VE EVER HAD!!!!! WHAT A BLAST.... Thanks to Gary and Tara!!!!!!!!

SOCCER SEASON AGAIN

It's that time of year again for more running because it's SOCCER SEASON. It started several weeks ago with Kendal's practices every Monday and Wednesdays...now we add Bub's into the mix and we're gone ALL THE TIME!!! In fact, Kendal had two games on Saturday and Brennan had a practice that morning. We left at 10 and returned home at 6:00 that night. The life of a soccer mom is GLORIOUS!!!!!! however, the colder weather has thrown me for a loop, so I will have to spend some time next week and re-equip the car with all the necessities for soccer!!! :)

NEW SHOES

REMEMBER me telling everyone that they were more excited about wearing their new shoes than actually gonig to school....well...here they are. By the way, do you know that kids shoes cost as much (if not more) than adult shoes!!!!!!!

MY LITTLE BOY GOING TO KINDERGARTEN

First Day of School

I know you all were betting whether I would bawl my eyes out this morning, but i did NOT. I got a little teary-eyed when he got on the bus, but held it all together.

Both were very excited to go to school this morning. They both got right up, dressed, and teeth brushed as I sat there in amazement because they've never done that before. Again, i think they both were more excited about wearing their new shoes than actually going to school.

YIKES ..... 3rd GRADE

Yet another year has passed and my little girl keep growing like a little weed and turning into quite the young woman. We met her teacher last night and she was super nice and we were excited at the choice of teachers she was given. I think we are in for yet another successful year with our little girl. I'm so thankful that she LOVES school and can't wait to start tomorrow. However, I think the highlight of her day, as well, is wearing her new tennis shoes.

And did I mention the fact that she is wearing a size 6 in women's shoes. THAT'S RIGHT....SIZE 6!!!!!
