Fall has arrived

Ready for the rain.

Bundled up and strapped in. Here we go.

The weather has turned and it has been quite a bit cooler the last couple of days. In fact it rained most of yesterday and was drizzling when we got up this morning. The sun has come out but it is still pretty chilly outside. We went for a nice long walk between Conference sessions in the rain and the kids thought it was great. Emily stood on the back of Amy's stroller and gave marching directions. She is a funny little girl.

Soccer days

Peter Gordon headed for the goal.


Hannah makes another save.

Hannah and Peter Gordon have spent the last two months playing soccer and have really enjoyed themselves. Hannah is the goalie of choice on her team and is getting to be really good. She had her last soccer game on Wednesday and they won 4-0. Peter Gordon has the potential to be a good forward. He is quick and fast with ball as long as he is going in a straight line. He will be really good when he figures out how to turn with the ball and pass it. His last game is Tuesday. He will be sad that soccer is over.

Happy Birthday

We celebrated my birthday by attending Peter Gordon's soccer game and then came home for a great spaghetti dinner and raspberry cream pie. The pie was quite good. I enjoyed myself thoroughly. I don't feel any older but when I think about how old my kids are it is obvious that I am.
