Spring soccer ends

Maxwell finished up with his last spring soccer game this last weekend. It has been really fun to see how he has improved from fall soccer. He loves sports so much. That kid is constantly running, literally. He has so much energy, I wish I had some of his energy.
Casey loves teaching him different techniques and ball handling skills and Maxwell just eats it up. He could play sports all day everyday. He is such a natural athlete, just like his Daddy, he's good at everything!

Running through the tunnel after his game.

Got his game face on.

Waiting patiently for his turn to go in

I love this picture, we were constantly yelling "same team!"

So Sweet!

Yesterday while driving home from picking Maxwell up from school this was our conversation:

Maxwell - "Mom, are we going to go to Brian's baseball game today?"
Me - "Yes, in a couple of hours."
Maxwell - "Where is the game at?"
Me - "I don't know, you will have to ask Daddy when we get home."
Maxwell - (a little irritated) "How come Daddy knows everything?"

To bad he won't always feel that way:) Later that day while driving to a friends house I started telling Maxwell that he was going to be able to attend hero camp again this summer like he did last summer, our conversation went like this:

Maxwell - "Mom, what's a hero?"
Me - "A hero is someone you look up to and want to be like, Daddy could be your hero if you want to be like Daddy when you grow up."
Maxwell - "Or Jesus, if you want to be like him. He could be a hero."

It's moments like this that I need to remember when my children are having meltdowns and screaming like they are possessed.

Summer already?

Last week it was hot enough that we had to bust out the wadding pool. The children had a great time splashing and playing...... Summertime here we come!!!

Mother's Day and Kylynne's blessing

Mother's day was wonderful this year because we had the special bonus of blessing baby Kylynne on Sunday. She is such an angel baby and brings so much joy to our family. Casey gave a very sweet blessing and it was great to have so much love and support from his family. Although we missed my side of the family we felt lot's of love from them that day. Thanks to all of you who came and for all the yummy food you brought with you. We love you and appreciate all you do.
