Caelin's Los Angeles soccer season

Caelin had a great 1st season of soccer.  She has always talked about soccer since Cade played and was really looking forward to it.  She was excited when Daddy became the coach, and overall had a great season.  We did have a few games where she refused to play, but I think that was just her being a typical 3 year old.  The rest of the games, when she played, she really enjoyed it.  She sometimes ran around just to be with friends, needed a sip of water during the middle of a play, sat down a time or two on field, wanted to hold the Coach's hand (Daddy), and clapped for her teammates.  She did make some goals and learned to be there for her team.  She was most excited for the snacks after each game and loved the medal at the end of the season.  We were so proud of her for just being active and trying out a new sport.  She is definitely an adventurous little girl, and we love watching her excitement for life.  She is already saying she is ready for soccer again, so we shall see!

A weekend to Hondo!

Our kids were once again blessed to spend time with Gamee and Grampee.  During this visit they got to go to Hondo, TX to visit Aunt Lala (Laura) and Uncle Larry.  While they were only there for a day and a half they did so much. They began their fun with a visit to the South Texas Corn Maize. At the Corn Maize they saw 2 white tigers, jumped on Corn Poppers, climbed on hay bales, slid down some big slides and ate kettle corn.  Of course no trip to Hondo is complete without visiting Larry and Laura's home.  Both of the kids got to not only feed the chickens there, but also to help collect the eggs. At night Uncle Larry was kind enough to light a fire so that the kids could roast marshmallows for smores and sing campfire songs. When it was time for bed the kids slept in sleeping bags like they were camping out, before waking up to go for a hike and play with the dogs.  Cade found several "treasures" on the hike and Aunt Laura found an amazing arrowhead.  Without a doubt the kids had an wonderful time and loved spending time with Gamee, Grampee, Aunt Laura, and Uncle Larry.  They are already asking to go back!

Baylor Homecoming

Of course we love our Baylor football games, but the best is always Homecoming.  This is when most people come home, and it is always a great time to see everyone and catch up.  This year was the best ever as we got to see my best friend of 27 years and her hubby!  Lizzy and David live in Dallas, which is too far from Tomball!  We laughed at a brief tailgate and then were able to spend the 2nd half watching the game together.  It was a great homecoming for Baylor Nation and us.
