1st soccer game!

  September 6, 2014

Today is our 1st soccer game of the season!  We all gathered together before the game to have our soccer picture taken!  I had fun playing with Collin and Shiloh while we waited for everybody to show up!

I am all posed in my uniform for my individual picture.  Our uniforms are a little on the big side, but we made it work!

Hanging out while we waited for everybody to finish their photos before our team photo.  

Here is my team.  There are 8 kids on the team ranging from almost 4 to 5 years old!  Here are all of us Mountain Lions!

Before the game, we did a little warm up to get us ready.  Here I go trying to score a goal!

Then I played a little defense and tried to keep the ball out of the goal!

At the start of the game, mom gave me some instruction on what to do!

Here we are ready to kick off!  We had a lot of fun playing our first game.  We don't keep score in our league, so, who know who one.  Mommy was surprised at how well we did!

For the opening of soccer season they had a bouncy house to play in!  Of course, after our game was over, I wanted to go and play in it!

I had a great time going down the slide!

I am ready to do it again!

Collin and I wanted to go down the slide together!  Look at the height of the bounce I got while I went down.  We sure had a blast going down the slide!

I had fun bouncing around and jumping!  What a great way to end my first soccer game!

At first, I didn't get to do in because there were a lot of big kids playing in the bouncy house, but then everybody cleared out and I got to take a turn!

I had fun bouncing all around and even falling down.  I wanted to try to go down the big slide, but my mom and dad had me stay in the bouncy area!  Maybe next year I will be able to go down the slide!

We sat down at the entrance to put our shoes on!  What a cute little mountain lion and mountain lion cub!

We hung out for a little while because there was a car accident on the road right in front of the soccer parking lot.  There was a fire truck blocking us from getting out.  Mom took a picture with me in front of the fire truck.  

Making soccer shirts for the little cubs!

September 4, 2014

As soon as we drop off McKenzie at preschool, I think it is my time to take her place.  I asked to sit in her car seat, I want to get my snack out of my tote, and today I put on her sunglasses.  I am all ready have some fun.  

Today, we headed over to Katelyn's house to make uniforms for us little cubs.  When the uniforms were handed out to McKenzie's and David's team we were really sad that we didn't get one.  So, our mom's decided to make us some shirts to match the team.  

We are at the table to help make the shirts.  This is going to be fun!

Baby Joseph even got to sit at the table to watch the shirts being made.  He even got a onies to match!

We wanted to be helpful with the shirts.  We started by stirring the paint together!  Katelyn was being very careful while she stirred!

I wanted to take a turn stirring too!

We were excited to get to paint the shirts!

I got to take a turn at stirring the paint.  We even helped paint the shirts some.  We both wanted to do it ourselves, but it really wasn't a do it yourself project.  We sure had fun playing this morning and can't wait to wear our shirts this Saturday!

Watching the planes as we eat lunch!

August 28, 2014

 Today, we got ready and had a little bit of time to play before we took McKenzie to preschool.  Mom it is too early for you to be taking my picture!

 Okay!  I will give you a cheesy smile!

 I wanted to make a silly scary face for the camera.  I think I nailed it!

  A sweet smile for the camera!  I am really excited about my second day of preschool.  I had so much fun at the first day I know I will have fun at the second day! 

I still have my cheesy face on!  So silly!

 After preschool, which I had a blast at, we headed over to take lunch to Daddy and tell him all about my morning.  We usually sit at the picnic tables by his office, but the one that has shade was taken today and we didn't want to sit in the sun.  So, Dad got in the car and there is an airport right by where Daddy works.  We went and had lunch on the bench by the planes!

 There were 5 or 6 planes that are used to help fight wild fires parked out here.  It was fun to be able to check them out.  

 We even saw some little airplanes as they were taking off.  I wanted to join Daddy and McKenzie by the fence.

 Look McKenzie, there is a plane!  We sure had a fun lunch by the airport!

Fantasy Fountain Spray Park!

August 27, 2014

Today, we met up with some friends at the Fantasy Fountain Spray Park.  Sadly, this was the first time we made it here all summer and we live within walking distance!

It was sure fun to walk around in the spray park and get splashed!

It felt really good to cool down in the water after playing on the playground.  

I got splashed in the face, so, I tried to wipe it off and then licked my fingers.  

Every ten minutes or so the big volcano goes off and sends water spraying all over.  We both got up close to get the spray as it erupted.  

I had a great time stepping on the water with my friends!

Check out this little waterfall!  It is the perfect size for me.  

Who knew being sprayed in the face could be so much fun?

I loved splashing in the puddles!

Here we go again the volcano is erupting.  This is sure one active volcano.  

Here I am at the foot of the volcano while it explodes.  I am glad it is water coming out and not hot lava!

Me, me!  I want to!

I just think this is great!

Collin, Shane, and I climbed onto the rock to get out of the water for a little bit!  We had a great time playing together!  It was a fun trip to the park!

McKenzie's 1st day of preschool!

August 26, 2014

This morning, when my mom came into my room to wake me up, I woke up with the biggest smile on my face.  I was so excited to be going to my first day of Pre-School!  I ate my breakfast quickly, got myself dressed, and had mom do my hair.  I am all ready for my first day.  Of course, mom had to get some first day of Pre-School pictures before we headed off!

We headed outside to take some more pictures.  I was being silly and put my sign in front of my face.  We went to Micheal's earlier in the week and mom let me pick out whatever color paint I wanted my sign to be.  I picked out neon pink!  Then my silly mom had to find an outfit in my closet that would match my sign.  This cute purple dress with pink ribbon worked perfectly!

Can I be more excited about Pre-School?  This picture indicates that I can't be!

Mommy thought it would be fun to do a 1st day interview to record my answers and see how they change over the years.  Here are the 12 questions with my response.  Question 1:  I am 43 inches tall and weigh 38 lbs.  Question 2:  My best friends name is I don't know I have a lot of friends.  Question 3:  My favorite thing to play is board games.

Question 4:  My favorite color is all the colors.  Question 5:  My favorite book is Curious George goes to the Zoo.  Question 6:  My favorite TV show is Curious George.  

 Question 7:  My favorite food is macaroni and cheese.  Question 8:  When I grow up I want to be . . . I don't know.  I haven't figure it out yet.  Questions 9:  Something I really like is my toys 

Question 10:  Something I really don't like is nothing.  Question 11:  My favorite thing about myself is ?  Question 12:  Something I want to do this year is go to Disneyland and learn about kindness.  It is going to be so fun to watch me learn and grow through out this year.  

I wanted a 1st day with mommy and me picture taken!  I sat in the chair to get my shoes on, so, we could head out.  I even found some sunglasses to take!

In front of my class.  We got there a little early, so, we took some pictures outside by the sign indicating that this is my classroom.  

 We got a tote that we take to school each day.  We got to decorate it.  Mom and I had fun decorating mine.  We practices a lot of skills that I will be doing in preschool.  I cut around the letters to divided them up, we counted to 30 while we ironed them on, I learned how to hand sew the flowers on and just had fun sticking the cupcakes on.  I was pretty excited about how it turned out.  

I found a seat to sit on while we waited!

I had a great time dancing around!

A little bit more silly dancing while I walked around!

I saw a curb and turned it into a balance beam.  I am sure good at entertaining myself!

This is my teacher Mrs. McKinny.  We are going to have such a great time this year together!  She seems really nice and fun!

Of course, a picture of me with Allison and Collin.  I am so excited to have some old friends in the class with me and also to make some new friends!

While McKenzie was in school, mommy and I had some time together.  After we dropped McKenzie off, we went for a walk on the river trail before it got to hot.  On the way back to our car, I got to get out and walk over the bridge.  Well, I ended up walking the rest of the way to the car.  

I am off!  I hope that mom and Scout can keep up!

After our walk, we headed home and played outside on the swing set.  I had fun climbing and going down the slide.  

I gave mom quite the funny face!

We played for awhile on the swing set and then I wanted mom to blow bubbles for me to pop.  I thought is was great fun to pop the bubbles that my mom caught on the wand.  It was a fun morning with Mommy, but I sure missed my sister!  I kept asking about her.  

We headed back to pick up McKenzie from preschool.  We got there a little early, because we didn't want to be late on the first day.  

Picking up McKenzie was extra special today, because, Dad took a long lunch and came with us to pick her up.  

We had fun catching up on how each others morning was going!

I was very excited to see my dad at school.  I saw my mom come in and my face stayed neutral, but then when I noticed my Dad came and my face lit up from ear to ear.  I got to choose where to go for lunch and I chose Umstead's BBQ.  Unfortunately this is the last time we will be going there, since, it is shutting down on Friday.  

A sweet smile while I wait for my food!  It was fun to get to go out to lunch!

Back at home, I wanted to take some more pictures with my pre-school sign.  I had a wonderful day at pre-school!  I told my mom I can't wait to go back!

I made some new friends, got play inside and outside, colored and had a blast!  Mom asked me what my favorite thing was and I said, "I loved everything!"

Well it is time for this tired pre-schooler to go off for her nap and get some sleep, so, she has some energy for soccer practice tonight!
