Soccer, A Party And Some Girl Time

It was a perfect morning for Kylee's very first soccer game. The weather was perfectly fall-like with cool temperatures just warm enough not to need a jacket. The sun was shining bright and the air was nice and crisp. It couldn't have been better!

Kylee had a blast playing. She still has plenty of room to improve in regards to being aggressive, but for her first time playing, I have to say she did a pretty dang good job! She was lovingly nicknamed "princess" by the coach - obviously a name that fits her. She is pretty dainty and sweet on the field initially, but as she gets going, she starts to go after the ball a bit more. Dancing and piano are areas she has shown to thrive in - we'll see if any of that carries over to competitive sports or not. For now, she is having fun - and that is all that matters. (She is the one wearing the pink pants on the field!)

While Kylee played - Triston tore it up on the playground. That kid has no fear at all. Things that even 5 and 6 year old kids won't climb, he is attempting (and conquering). I end up following him all over the park just waiting to have to catch him - I can't believe the balance and agility that kid has - he is just shy of causing me a heart attack every time we go there. I am just waiting for the broken bone(s) to happen with that kid!

Later in the day we had my aunt's retirement party. It is always a good time getting together with family. The kids got a chance to run off a ton of energy in Grandma & Grandpa's backyard, eat some yummy steak and veggies and then massive amounts of cake!

After it was all said and done, me and the sisters snuck out for an hour or two of quality girl time at Starbucks. Guessing we annoyed the guy sitting behind us to no end. You see - me and my sisters are able to carry on three separate conversations with each other and able to maintain that conversation and answer any questions. We probably covered 100 different topics in an hours time. That guy was probably willing us to shut up and leave. That or he could have possibly been a bit humored if he was able to follow any of what we had to say - since most of what we talked about are the crazy things our kids have put us through already!
