It's been a weekend of soccer games for the kids and football games on TV. We were rooting for the Packers- but, it wasn't meant to be. Watching games with my dad is always fun. We scream and yell and occasionally cuss (don't tell the kids), and it is a fun time to be together. Can't wait for the Superbowl- guess we will root for the Patriots now.
Montana had her best soccer game ever. She was in the mix the whole time, chasing the ball, blocking, kicking, and really going for it. It was so exciting. I wish she would have kicked it into gear about 10 games ago. But only one more game for the season and we will take a break. She spent three days with her friend Madyson- sleep over at her house, then ours, then ours again. They just don't get tired of each other. She even went to a family baby shower with us. I guess she is our new child. She's a good kid.
Justice bummed out of his game this week, he wasn't feeling well. Oh well. He is helping me get organized, he has started organizing cupboards and closets on his own. It is pretty funny. He will wake up and say "what are we going to clean today mom!" He is keeping me motivated. Mostly because his idea of "organizing" is just spreading things out- and whatever doesn't fit just goes in a pile on the floor. Ya gotta love it.
My cousin Aaron and his wife Misty are having their first baby. It's a boy! They are going to name it Austin. So we have two Austin's in the family now, as well as two Skyler's. It is getting a bit confusing. Mom threw a shower for Misty this past weekend and her house was completely packed with well wishers. I saw Vonnie, Jason's wife for the first time in a long time. She had a tummy tuck, lipo, and has additionally lost about 40 pounds. She looks amazing! Also her girls Rebecca and Rochelle I haven't seen for many years- I didn't even recognize them when they came in. They are all grown up and beautiful. It was so good to see them. Misty got showered with baby clothes, and all manner of baby things. They will definitely be ready for that sweet one now!
Sierra spent the day at dance on Saturday. A 5 hour practice. Poor kid- but she loves it. She has started her solo competition rehearsals as well and that is shaping up to be a fantastic routine. I don't know how so much talent got packed into one kid! Her (girl) cousin Skylar asked her to choreograph a routine for her dance studio recital. I thought that was so nice. She will do a great job and they can get to know each other better.
We had a snow storm last night and it looks like about 18 inches!! Sierra was going snowboarding today with her dad- so it looks like a perfect day for it. We were hoping to go to the children's museum downtown- but I don't know if it is a good day for driving. Maybe later today when the roads are plowed and salted. Anyhoo- happy Martin Luther King Day!
