I want to send a BIG Thank you to Coaches Bobbi Tracy & Dean Cook for a "Wondernormous" Soccer Season. Lexy had such a great time getting to know all of her teammates & enjoyed playing for both Storm & Rampage. There were some amazing wins and some tough losses, some absolutely freezing cold days and some that made you smile in the sunshine. It was a great Spring Season.

Lexy getting herself ready to play in the Friendship Cup in Pocatello. Lexy taking the final shot in overtime penalty kicks. At the end of the game it was tied. This sends them in to penalty kicks. Each team chose 8 girls to take penalty kicks. After the first 5 girls on both teams had shot the score was still tied. The next 2 sets of girls shot, still tied...
Leaving Lexy and a girl from the other team. The other girl shot, missed... Lexy's turn. So nervous. Shaking her head, not wanting to take her turn. Encouragement and cheers from her teammates & from the sideline!!! Run up, shot, goalie touches it, keeps rolling, GOAL!!! Screaming and excitement as you can imagine with a group of 11/12 year olds. Being carried off the field by her excited teammates. Proud Mom.
So glad she tried her best. Would have been proud either way. Just look at her size (#3) compared to that goalie in green. I think I would have been pretty nervous too!







Gracy & the Tooth Fairy


YEAH!!! That dangly tooth is finally out! And looking at that whopping $5 bill I'd think the tooth fairy was just as excited as I was. It had been loose for quite some time & was starting to look pretty funny poking straight forward out of her mouth. It left quite a big gap between her teeth and makes her smile so dang cute.

Playroom Pics

We finally bought some shelves to put in the playroom. Gotta have something to hold all those toys my kids rarely have time to play with. Gracy was a great helper to her dad, handing him all the necessary pieces and tools. Thank you Vanna! Gracy modeling the finished shelves... well, almost finished.Finally, some saneness to the madness. And I get an entire closet back. Yeah, me! And a quick pic of the curtains I picked up at Ikea last year. I was pretty proud of myself, I had to hem them all by myself (okay, okay, so they were the hem with an iron kind. I still had to make sure they were even on the bottom). It was quite the feat. And a quick thanks to B for picking out and installing the curtain rod for me (sorry about all the nagging). You did an excellent job. (Oh, did I mention I need you to get the blind installed a.s.a.p., thanks:) This room was supposed to be my scrapbooking oasis, but this is all I ended up with. A little desk in the corner of the room... No, I love it. It's just right. And I can watch the girls play while I play. The perfect combo.

Valentine's Day

Brent woke everyone up to a yummy (Pink & Red) breakfast of eggs, bacon, waffles, and milk. He is so sweet. He had us all flowers and cards waiting on the table. Such a romantic.
Gracy thought her pink rose was beautiful.

Lexy loved her red rose.


And I thought my bouquet of roses was perfect!




We are a lucky threesome to have such an amazing man in our lives. Thanks B. We love you too.
