Sweet Thank Yous

We used some of our tax return to buy some bigger bikes for 3 of our kids.  I love how they just seem to out grow everything at the same time.  

We needed to find new homes for their old bikes so I called Katy Gardner and asked if she knew anyone who could use them.  She said she did and so off they go to her garage.  It felt good to make some room in ours.

A few days later she came over with her kids and a yummy plate of chocolate dipped strawberries, marshmallows, pineapples, and graham crackers.  Travis, Trevor, and Kendra had drawn and written Thank You notes for the bikes!  They are soo sweet!  And so were those goodies!

Spring Soccer has begun!

I am often amazed at all the things Moms have to keep straight.  Take soccer for example.  I have 4 kids in soccer.  Two of them are on the same team.  But I have to remember who practices on what night and at what time.  I have to get them there and back by dinner or before dinner.  Which means I have to plan my dinner times according to the days they have practice.  Are you confused?  I am.
I love soccer and I love being schedules!  I love calendars and marking them up with all the different activities we have.  It makes me feel like we're active and that we're accomplishing goals and not just sitting around being idol.
