Sam had his 4th birthday at Build-a-Bear this year. The kiddos loved..they always want a new stuffed animal ;) Happy Birthday Sammy Whammy...we love you!

 We waited on getting Owen and Lilly's for now ;)

Madison picked Belle's Palace pet 
Macey picked Stow White's palace pet...shocking pic for both :)

Church Class Camping Trip

Our Sunday school class takes a weekend camping trip together every year. It is so fun and the kids have blast being with all the other kids. It's nice to get away where the only thing you can do is fellowship with your friends. Can't wait til next year!!

Madison lost her first tooth on the trip. Toothfairy coming to your tent is pretty fun!! ;)

Macey had a hard time with Madison losing one and she doesn't even have a loose one yet. She wrote the Toothfairy a note to put under Madison's pillow too :)

Madison wants to save her teeth so she wrote the fairy a note too:)

The Girls' First Soccer Games

The girls have been asking to play something where people will come to watch them (the watching part was Macey's request :). So, the girls are playing soccer this fall. They have absolutely LOVED it..the practices too. They are doing better than I thought they might too. Madison scored a goal the first game, and Macey did the second game. After the 1st game, Macey asked when all the strangers were coming to watch her play. I asked what she meant because there were a lot of people there she didn't know. She said "You know, Mom, like at the Bison games and people don't know any of the players, they just come watch the Bisons play because they like them." I told her that didn't happen in little league soccer...maybe when she got a little older "strangers/fans" will come watch her play ;) So, here we go with sports! Bye Bye lazy Saturday mornings!:) It's so fun to watch them play though and how much fun they are having. Thankful they have a good coach and some good friends from church and school on their team too.

O.k., I guess I'll play a little now (Baylor)

This kick by Macey was stopped by the goalie

This coast to coast kicking resulted in Macey's first goal
