FINALLY!!!!

After 6 1/2 years of "mommyhood" I am VERY EXCITED to announce that I am now OFFICIALLY a SOCCER MOM!!! As crazy as it may sound, I have dreamed of this day for a long time. Sierra had her first soccer game today and she did great. She was a little timid at first, but she got in there, did great and had a ton of FUN! I don't think I've ever laughed so hard watching a sporting event. I had a smile the whole time. 3 and 4 year olds playing soccer--- does it get any better than that? Sierra's coach was adorable with them. He literally would just pick them up and move them into position. I'm glad her first soccer experience has been a good one so far. She has sat at many sports classes and baseball games for Dallin over the years. . . waiting her turn to play, and she's been asking to play soccer for a while now. Ooooohh! I can't wait until it's my turn to bring the treats! My only problem now will be keeping Grant on the sidelines-- it's torture for a sports-obsessed 2 year old to be dragged around to baseball AND soccer practices and games and NOT get to be out there playing.

Sizing up the competition. Look how tall Sierra is! There are a few other taller players on her team, but she is DEFINITELY one of the tallest.

GO SIERRA!!!!

Watching the game, waiting her turn.

Trying to get the group of 3 and 4 year olds to line up after the game and give eachother hi-fives in an orderly fashion was quite amusing.

Happy Spring!

To welcome in one of my favorite seasons I thought I'd post some "Springy" pictures from the Botanical Gardens taken this week on a Spring Break outing.

Side note: I realize that I have not been a very faithful blogger over the past couple months, but the next few months should be full of blog-worthy photos and experiences and I am determined to be better.

Spring Time!

Kids and new BYU shirts from my visit to Utah. The suckers were a treat from aunt Kim and Kelly. (while I was gone Melissa painted the walls as seen in this picture as well)
