Soccer Season Again!

Jordan is always so excited for Soccer Season!  He has another dynamite team this year.  They are undefeated so far this year (I thought we weren't supposed to keep score :))  Of course the parents don't keep score but the kids know exactly what the score is and who scored every goal.  No matter what you do you can't take the competition away from competitive kids.  So far his personal best is 8 goals in one game. 




 Jordan and his best buddy Grant are quite the team together.  They are really getting the hang of playing as a team and passing the ball to each other.  Between the 2 of them they score about 80% of the goals in each game.  They crack me up and it is so fun to watch them play together.

Genesis Basketball

After going to Edmonton with Kailey and Lethbridge with Sadie, it is off to Spokane with Carson's Genesis basketball team to play in a tournament down there.  I was having a hard time getting my camera to focus in the gym down there so I didn't get a ton of good pictures.  Not to mention I get tired of watching the games from behind a camera.  

We had fun staying with Mike and Leslie and their family as well as spending time with Uncle Gary and Aunt Arlene.  We are so thankful to have family to stay with when we travel or we would be broke paying hotel bills!

Party Girl!

Sadie has been busy with her dance troupe dancing all over the place.  They danced in a festival here in Calgary and then we travelled to a festival in Lethbridge.  Her group is very good together and they are always praised for how together they are when they dance.

This is Sadie taking her solo leap across the stage during the "Party Girl" Jazz dance.  It is a really fun sassy song that the girls really get into!  Some of their facial expressions crack me up!



I took some pictures of Sadie in some of her costumes from the last year because I didn't have any pictures of her in them.  We are not allowed to take any type of cameras into the festivals or dance performances which just makes me mad.  We pay all this money for her to dance and we can't even take our own pictures of her on stage.  We have to buy them from the professional photographer!  (Don't get me started on this.)
 Beautiful ballerina!  I see a Princess.

Kailey's VolleyBall

We have had a few busy months travelling all over the place.  Kailey has been playing club volleyball this winter/spring and we took a road trip to Edmonton for a weekend tournament.  The team played a lot of volleyball in 2 days!


 Kailey has a real soft touch with the volleyball and became quite a good setter this year.

 Kailey's team is called Storm Volleyball and all of her teammates go to school with her so she really enjoys hanging out with her team.  They had a great season and learned a lot!

Just A Good Laugh!


So I had misplaced the cable to download stuff from an older camera in the house and I finally found it. I took this camera (which Jordan has made his own and has been busy taking all kinds of pictures and video on) and when I downloaded everything and came across this video it made me laugh. Oh my boys! They do make me laugh all the time!
