Junior Soccer

Officially a soccer mom to 3 kids.
But when did they go from 4 to 14 years old?
Tyler & Harper are in "real" soccer 
with real games and real soccer shoes and real shin guards.
Wonder if baby bro is just a tad jealous?!?!
Um, yes. 
First game this weekend.... lots of photos to follow.

Ballerina Girls

My precious twirling ballerina girls!
First day of ballet, age 4 3/4
Harper (L) Tyler (R)

Soccer Shots!

So now that school has started, after school activities are in full swing. Thinking we may have over booked ourselves a bit but the kids are loving all of the non stop fun. I am constantly driving from one place to the next... dropping one off, cheering one on, changing ballet slippers to soccer cleats and I would not change a thing. 

Court was so excited to finally have his very own activity to do... 
soccer was a natural choice for our ball boy.

 First day of soccer practice

 Warm ups with Coach Matt
With friends Lawton, Kemp & Leighton
 Mad skills!

 A natural.
Totally mesmerized and paying close attention to his coach

 Dribbling

He shoots, he scores!

Back to School!

Back to School
Tyler & Harper's last year of pre-school
Court's 2's year

We all survived.
A few tears by a precious little brother who was devastated to realize his sisters were not in his class but  the tears dried quickly. Everyone was all smiles when Mom came to pick up. A great day!

Meeting the Teachers

Its that time of year again.... meeting the teachers before the exciting first day back at school that is just a few days away! 

 Tyler, Court & Harper
Walking into the WDS

 Court with his 2's teachers.
Ms. Kathy & Ms. Sydney, same Ms. Kathy the girls had a few years back. Pretty sure Court will have his teachers wrapped around his little finger before we know it.

 Court settling right in playing with trucks.
We have been talking a big game about Court being a big boy and not crying at school this year. Wish us luck next week!

5 day 5's class 
Tyler in Green & Harper in pink
Big girls in the upstairs of the WDS
So excited to start the new year and already picking out their own unique outfits and insisting on brushing their own hair... Growing up!

The girls with their new teachers Mrs. Russack & Mrs. Pratt
This is going to be a pretty amazing year for these two girls!


And yes we have been MIA lately and the blog posts have become far & few between but we are approaching week SEVEN of not having a home base. And we are a few more weeks out from the new house being ready. So bear with us... hopefully life will return to normal in the next few weeks once we get into our new home & finally get settled and actually get to unpack then the blog posts will happen more often!!!

Its a Zoo out there!

We sure did pick a HOT day to visit the NC Zoo for the first time. Despite the heat and constant requests to be carried, we all had a great time checking out the animals.
