Spring Soccer 2013

The boys played spring soccer this year. It's finally happened. As long as the boys have done sports I've managed to follow two rules: the sports are indoors and they only have one obligation per week (thus the practice and game are on the same day). This year they had one practice during the week and a game on the weekend! And it was outdoors. AND I signed up to help coach. There were two of us coaching and we traded off weeks heading the practice and took turns on the field. It was a ton of fun! And the boys really improved! Here are some highlights:

River.front Park Passes....

Last year we didn't get our passes because Dan was deployed and I was just too overwhelmed to do it! This year, I made sure to get those passes as our family gets full use out of them. The girls are finally at the right height to be able to ride most rides and the boys can ride everything. It's so much fun!

Family Hikes

We took our first family hike (as a family)! Dan is home from deployment and enjoying the sunshine as a family was on the plan of events. We took to a favorite trail and started hiking. The kids did not last long, but there were some great moments for all.

OOPS...Easter 2013

I'm really behind. My apologies to those who follow the blog to follow the family. It's been so busy and our computers/internet have all had to be replaced/worked on!

Easter was a little bit complicated as Dan was still deployed. Since he was deployed the same time last year, we just followed the same protocol. Our friends, Phil and Lauren, helped out with the Easter Egg Hunt at Gon.zaga Prep. Always fun!

We dyed Easter eggs.

We took our annual Easter picture with the ears (not the best, but it'll do)

We hosted Easter brunch here. The highlights were: watching the family play Bey-Blades and watching the NCAA tournament with grandpa Larry.

Snow White and the KING!

This winter Joshua participated in some Civic Theater classes on the production of Snow White. He was cast as the king. He was very excited and really had a great time. Dan was deployed during the time of the show so we invited as many friends and family as possible. The crowd was full of fans for him! He was so proud and did an amazing job. Thanks to all of our friends and family that attended and supported Joshua!
