Shelby!

Shelby is up visiting for the summer from Utah. My kids are in heaven. They love having her around. Her mom took some shots of her in the lupine. I edited them for her…so I thought I would post them. She turns 14 soon. Boy how time flies! She sure has turned into a beautiful young woman!

SoCcEr!!

Tuesday and Thursday nights are soccer for us. We have 2 games a night, and we pray each day that the weather cooperates, because in Alaska they play rain or shine. Rylee and Camry are on the Bombers. Our automotive shop sponsored the team. Zoey and Avery play for the Bumble Bees sponsored by M & M Market. They are having fun. It is just a lot of running around for mom, who has 5 weeks left until we welcome our new bundle into our home. Makes the time fly by I guess! :)

Rylee needs to be a tad bit more aggressive. She doesn’t like to try to take the ball away.

Soccer started

I am officially a soccer mom times 3. Soccer started on the 19th as well. The girls are so excited to play!  Ryan took them, since I was in Anchorage with Levi. They played at the same time, so he got to go back and forth. He is such a good dad. We are blessed to have him in our lives.

Here they are in their soccer shirts. Rylee’s is a little long..you can’t even see her shorts. We are going to try and get a smaller one tonight. Zoey and Avery are on the same team. Which is nice…good we don’t have to go back and forth between 3 games. I will post some action shots as the season goes on.

Surgery for Levi

I took Levi along with our friend, Robbie, who is visiting from Utah to Anchorage on his real birthday, June 19th for surgery on his ears. He had to have tubes put in again.

Headed into surgery Wed, June 20th. He was happy. They gave him some silly medicine. He was a champ. He acted like nothing really had happened. When he woke up in recovery. The nurses cuddled and loved on him. They said “you are so precious, you are so cute, you have gorgeous blue eyes.” He said “I know!” with his big crooked smile.  He is such an easy going kid. He asked for french fries and rootbeer when we left the surgery center. He got a little frustrated that he couldn’t walk by himself, but other than that he was great!

Family Fun in the Midnight Sun!

We spent last Saturday at Family Fun. It was a great day. The weather was wonderful.

Ryan, Rylee, and Zoey along with our neighbors Kenna and Chrystal started out the morning doing the 3 mile fun run (walk). Avery, Levi and I waited and cheered for them.

Ryan got first place for his age division (20-39) Avery told Gramma and Grampa that he was in the 10-100 age group. :)  He ran it in 22:57. Not too shabby just 6 weeks after double knee surgery.

We went home and ate some lunch and let RYan shower. We went back for the afternoon booths and games. They have games and foot races and a bike drawing for each age group.
