Green Beans

Today was our second soccer practice and we are the Green Beans. The kids practice for 30 minutes and then the last 30 minutes they scrimmage with another team. I didn't know why they don't have them play actual games against other teams, well that is until today. Watching them play was hilarious. The kids were just happy to kick a ball and they didn't care where they were kicking it to or which way they are supposed to run or they just stood there and watched all the other kids running around kicking the ball. It was so cute. The team got their uniforms today and our little bean is number 8 so if you are every driving by Southbrook on a Saturday at 2 cheer on the Green Beans #8 please (sorry some of the pictures are fuzzy but it was hard to get clear action shots.

A new year

Over Labor day weekend we went to Virginia and went to the Hillsville flea market. We bought a few things that I will post about at a later time. The weather was beautiful and I for the first time going there I never even broke a sweat, most people even kept long sleeve shirts on. We also did the creeper trail which is always fun. I just love riding down the trail and seeing Gods talents as you take in the beautiful scenery and can hear the water flowing in the creeks. Hailey kept wanting to go fast and loving hitting all the bumps while riding in her bike trailer. She did get out a few time to throw rocks in the water and chase crawdads around. Mackenzie did ok in her bike trailer but her favorite part was the chocolate cake at the Creeper Trail Cafe. On Monday we went to the farm and got some cute pictures of the girls.

Last week Hailey started school, dance and soccer (it was a busy week for us). She is loving school and her two best friends Kaleigh and Sarah are in her class again this year. There are 10 kids and it is evenly split with 5 girls and 5 boys. Kaleigh and Sarah are both in her dance class as well. They all look so cute dressed in the pink leotards. I don't have any pictures of Hailey playing soccer yet since I had to work all morning and most of the afternoon on Saturday and just made it in time to watch her first practice but I promise I will have pictures next week.

Mackenzie is doing great and I am really looking forward to having time one on one with her while Hailey is in school. She loves her little I-pod toy and carries around like a boom box all the time, it is so cute. She also loves playing with Hailey's princess laptop. She will play with anything that makes music and she will dance and try to sing a long, she loves music.
