Since my last post Kaila has participated in her first Spring soccer game, along with her two best friends that decided to play with her.

Here is my kids' Easter photo. As you can tell, they are slightly chilled.

I started this day (April 26, 2014) off by sending my three guys out turkey hunting. I then proceeded to bake a couple pies, do laundry and get ready for Kaila's soccer game.

While at Kaila's soccer game, I received the photos below.

This is Blake's first turkey...one shot. I just put three pounds of ground turkey in the freezer and I have the crock pot filled with everything else for tomorrow's dinner :)

Kaila and her team won their soccer game. The games always go by so quickly. It was a gorgeous day for it.

Here are a couple recent layouts. I used a Nuts About Sketches sketch for both of these.

Here's another layout, but I used a Scrap Friends sketch for this.

Thanks for stopping by!

We had a fairly busy weekend...soccer, scrapping, church and a corn maze!

This was Kaila's last OFFICIAL game. We still have a scrimmage on Saturday. She finally got to play offense and was pretty aggressive.

 

 

A couple cards I made from scraps.

It was great weather all weekend, besides being just a touch cold.

Halloween is fast approaching with Thanksgiving right on its heels! There is always so much to do around this time of year that it's hard to enjoy the beautiful weather and colors.

October is my favorite month of the year. I'm not sure why exactly...it just is.

We start with Kaila's birthday. I didn't get any actual photos on her 10th birthday. I know...I am a terrible mother...JUST terrible! I took her and two of her friends to Olympic Fun Center for 5 hours to make up for her not-so-great birthday. She only wanted $$$ so she could add it to her other $$$ to purchase a computer/tablet...whatever. So, there was no opening of presents :( Anyway, they had a blast and were very tired after this day.

Surpirse!!! More about Kaila, because she seems to have the most going on right now. She is almost done playing her first season of soccer. I enjoyed it immensely and she liked it. I just don't know if she'll do it again.

 

Here's a layout I did of Blake blowing bubbles back in 2009 using a Scrapbook Challenges sketch. I'll have you know that that hand-stitching took 45 minutes.

 

 

 

Here's a layout I did of Kaila when she couldn't even walk yet. I thought it was a Scrapfriends sketch, but I can't find it. I'll see if I can add it later.

 

 

Oh, look here! Here's another layout of Kaila using a sketch from Nuts About Sketches.
