weekend stuff..

This is the weekend that soccer started (due to the SNOW last Saturday). Tayler plays at 8 a.m. every Saturday and Rylee plays at 10:30. Sean also signed Jayson up so he will start in the fall.  Wow!

Grandma & Jackson all bundled up watching Tay's game.  It wasn't so warm at 8 a.m.  Jackson was cozy and warm and didn't move the whole game.  He and grandma have now bonded. Very cute.

 I had the pleasure (read: UNFORTUNATE EVENT) of helping out at the practice on Friday since Sean was out of town.  Luckily for everyone he showed up about 20 minutes after the practice started..phew!  I really do love the girls on Tay's team, they are so great.  The funniest thing was Tayler's embarrassment of what I wore to her soccer practice.  My hot pink running pants and superman shirt.  I thought it was funny, yet she was mortified.  Ah, the joys are starting already.  I should have gotten a picture.  It was stellar.

 After the game.  We are missing Taylie in this picture (actually, she is in the back with her dad.. if you squint you can see her.)

 When Tayler's game ended, we went and picked up some Krispy Kremes, hit Old Navy for a minute and then went to  Rylee's game.

Rylee and Bethany.. they have been friends for a LONG time.

 

Rylee scored a goal during the game.  Their team won 2-1. We were so proud of her.  Sean's reward was Nacho's.. mine was a quarter. Yep, I'm cheap.

Tayler came home from Activity Days on Friday SO excited to teach FHE.  She wanted to do it that night.  I told her to wait until Monday, but we let her do it this evening instead.  She had a packet of brownies for the treat so she made them from start to finish all by herself (I was coaching on the sidelines), but she did
everything by herself.  Way to go Tay!

On Thursday I was bored so I decided to make bread.  This is the 2nd attempt ever to make bread.  I make rolls and bread sticks all the time, but not bread.  My first experience wasn't great (I omitted the salt accidentally, so my beautiful loaves tasted awful). Needless to say, I haven't done it again, but I decided it was time to try and surprisingly-it did turn out.  Tayler has asked me everyday to make it again so I'm guessing it wasn't too bad. The recipe was simple.  I am a fan of those.

I also made some strawberry freezer jam so it was the perfect thing to go with it.

We had a great weekend.  It was fun to have grandma come and have a sleep over. My kids think that is the coolest.  She also helped so much with the kids!  It was WONDERFUL to have daddy come home after his trip.  It's always better when dad is home. The weather was so nice Friday and Saturday afternoon.. I was able to get a semi good run in. Sunday was so relaxing.  My favorite kind.
