Perfect Weekend

Hello from Miss Piper!

This weekend was perfect. The weather, the kids, the activities. Friday night we didn't do much, Steve did the grocery shopping while I picked up the girls from mom's, then he got our steak, potato and onion kabobs ready to grill! Yes, he is handy and he cooks! :) Both kids were asleep by 8:45, I cuddled up on the couch and Steve cleaned the garage.

 

Saturday Piper woke up at 4 am...I gave her a bottle and by 5 she was back asleep.....and then we didn't hear from her until almost 9! Heck ya! We also had soccer. Steve decided he wasn't going to go b/c he just can't handle Presley in that situation. It was picture day, team pictures...in the team tshirts. Nope, not for Presley. Again, she wouldn't wear the tshirt. Fine. There are only so many battles I was willing to have with her. I told her that parents were not allowed on the field during the game. So she didn't play, she sat on Grandmas lap until the last 30 seconds of the game when Coach Kelly basically forced her out there. She went with him, held his hand, ran down the field with him...and then she came to the sidelines crying b/c she didn't score a goal?! Good Lord.

This whole soccer thing is turning into a $90 tshirt that she won't wear and one shitty hour every Saturday morning....I think I could've found something better to spend $90 on but we'll just hang on at least another week and chalk this up to a good experience! HA!

 

We headed home and her mood changed instantly...soccer was long forgotten by the time we got home and then she helped Steve plant flowers, she was very excited!

She was a good helper and didn't mind getting dirty!

We hung out and played, P and I went for a walk and we got ready to head to Lisa and Jared's house. They had a house-warming party / goodbye party and we got perfect weather for it! They moved into their house a couple weeks after us and our friends Lane and Rachel are moving to Clear Lake and it turned out that everyone was able to come!
