New Family Member

Well we had not planned to take on another stray cat but....the girls did! Ali and a friend came home last Sunday evening with this really sweet, loving female cat. I thought just maybe it would find its home before Monday morning...nope it is still at the house and just as sweet as can be. The girls call it "Puma".

North Soccer

Ali played her first soccer tournament as a North Patriot, it was a VERY HOT Saturday in Indy, they played a total of 6 games, won 3, tied 2 and lost 1. We had a great time and Ali has made so many new friends already. I can't wait until the season starts!!

Kynedy staying cool

Kynedy's new friend Cole!

Lunch Time!

I LOVE Summer!!

It has been awhile since I have posted, of course it is way too nice outside to be sitting at a computer!!! We have been enjoying our pool, and our beautiful flowers when we are not running. Ali has been busy with North soccer already, has attended soccer camp at Rose-Hulman, working at the Boys Club, and participated in her first soccer tournament as a North Patriot. Kynedy has been spending most evenings outside with her friends swimming or riding bikes. I have been preparing for our trip to Florida!!

The Sun and the Moon

The moon

The sun, taken through solar eclipse glasses, you can't see it very well but Venus was in front of the sun.

Kynedy's Soccer Party

Kynedy ended her season winning all but one game. She celebrated with ice cream at McDonalds. Great job Kynedy I am so proud of you!!

Celebrating with the Team

We all celebrated after the game at Monicals, it was very sad. Tony saved Ali & Taylor for last, it will be weird not having him as Ali's coach. She has already started practicing at North and will play her first tournament June 16th. Oh boy here we go!

Ali's Last Middle School Soccer Game

You are looking at an undefeated team!!! What a great way to end your middle school soccer career! It was a bittersweet evening to say the least. Great job Ali you are an awesome soccer player!!!!

All of the 8th graders taking a bow...what a great team!!

AHHHH SUMMER BREAK

The girls are in camp now, Ali is working there this year. We have been up WAY too late every evening and have been enjoying hanging with friends and swimming. I have enjoyed watching my flowers bloom too this year, I am thankful the construction is done.

Ali's All-Star Basketball

Ali was chosen from her school to play in a All-Star basketball tournament, she a had a great time, her team lost by two. I am really proud of her only the top 3 players from each school were asked to participate.
