Happy 14th Brittany!

Brittany turned 14! Holy cow! We are just months away from her going into High School! Where does the time go?? Here she is with the friends that came to her party. They had fun and 3 of them spent the night. Good times!
This is the trio. Since Morgan and Lily were in 5th grade these three have been friends. It will be interesting to see where life leads them....

First Soccer Practice!

Kirsten was finally able to join soccer. And somehow, I was made the soccer mom. So, I am a true suburbanite! hehe They had lavender jerseys, so Grandpa Paul told Kirsten she should go for the name of the Purple Dragons. And as you can see... her name won the vote. Yipee for Grandpa. Brittany drew the dragon for me. But, I got the chore of everything else. I had a little help from friends too, thank goodness.

Kirsten was born to run. I think that this is going to be her thing. This or Track and Field. We'll just have to wait and see...

Here she is with a few of her new team mates. How cute are they???

Morgan Driving!!!

Ok! I am so proud of myself! hehehe I drove with Morgan for 30 minutes and didn't scream at her once! It is so weird how they teach kids to drive now. We started off with simulators in order to get a "feel" for the driving wheel. Now we hire people to come and just put our kids into the car and then WHAMO! We the parent become the instructor! It is absolutely terrifying! I will be wowed and amazed when Morgan actually gets her license. We have 6 months to make her a confident driver! WISH ME LUCK!!! I think that she is going to be alright. She was moving really slow today, but I think that her skills will come along quickly. I appreciated the lack of speed to be honest with you! :-)
