First soccer game of the season.

Soccer season has begun, we have 4 kids on three different teams this year, and that makes for a crazy schedule, we live at the soccer fields, but we love it. I love seeing my kids be active doing something they love.

Digging holes makes for tuff kids

Brooklyn Came to me complaining about being bored so I suggested she go dig a hole in our ditch, not thinking she would think it was that fun, but I use to dig holes for fun as a kid, so I thought I would try. She liked the idea and ended up spending three hours outside digging that hole, and then continuing to do it for the next three days after that. It was a parenting win, she wasn't bored, she also was building good work ethic, character, and strength. And she didn't bother me for days, we all won, I'm going to promote digging holes from now on. All the kids started digging holes after she did. What fun!!!!

Spring break at Rock island state park























This is the pose Evie did when Rachel asked her to smile for a picture, I'm in so much trouble with this one.
