Quick Update












Here are some pictures and some updates of what has been going on in our life. I want to get back into updating this blog, but I feel like too many other things have been going on. The pictures are out of order, but oh well. Sara, when you come visit, I want you to give me bloggin lessons. Anyway........... Maris's birthday was fun. She got a cozy coop car and tons of other things. Granny made her little bday dress.
Macie had her first soccer game on Sat. These pictures are of her playing goalie. They are misleading, because this is the only time she actually partcipated. The rest of the time, as the girls chased the ball up and down the field, she was several yards behind them wandering around. She also thought the goal net thing (she gets her athleticism from me) was a stage and was dancing around. I am hoping she was just REALLY tired due to the camping trip the night before and will do better next week.
On Friday night, we went camping at River Legacy Park down the street from our house. The city organized it and it was a lot of fun. They provided hot dogs and smores, Macie made a lantern that she uses as a night light now and the librarians read some books. At 9, they showed a movie (open season) on a big screen. Macie knew a couple of friends there from Nature School and of course met some new ones. She had a great time. Maris loved it too. She had a ball in the tent and on the air mattress, and in her little lawn chair. The weather was great, but WINDY. The tent was blowing all over the place, even ripped our brand new tent. Maris and I made it until 1 am and then took off for home where we slept much better. We were all 4 trying to sleep on a queen size air mattress. ha! Oh well, we hope to try camping again later this spring.
