Another Wonderfully Busy Weekend Wrap UP!!

We started out the weekend with a family cookout and birthday party for Miss Adler. It stormed some but we stayed nice and dry---adults on the screen porch and kiddos inside!!! She also had Bri, Taylor, and Natalie spend the night so that was fun for her. After the cookout she opened her presents and the girls did make overs before going to bed. Saturday morning the girls got up bright and early (about 7:30am). I am going to have to start wearing ear plugs! I never really get to sleep-in anymore. Since the big girls can help Crosby get breakfast I don't have to get up so early with them but it isn't that nice late sleep I would like. Crosby had her last soccer game at 9am so we loaded up and went to that.

GO GOALIE!!

She works so hard out there--it is so fun to watch her!

The big girls had their last game at 10:30am. Adler scored her first goal on the GIGANTIC outdoor field. She is having a great year athletically. Her hard work is paying off!! Our girl Chelo has had several goals on the season--she is a fantastic forward. I love watching the two of them working so hard together out on the field! After the games I ran to the Rec Center for Summer activity sign ups. I put the girls in swimming lessons only this summer. Since the big girls are so busy with softball I figured that would be plenty. Crosby is VERY excited about swimming lessons!! I actually like them too, I either go for a run around island park or relax and read a magazine during that 30 minutes, so it works out perfectly! After lunch I got dressed and traveled to Belle Plaine for our high school graduation. This time of year is always surreal for me. It hasn't really sank in that school is almost out for the summer!!! This time next week I will be at home with my girlies for 3 months!! YEA!

After the ceremony I went to Georgia's graduation party. They had BBQ catered and cake! A pregnant ladies heaven!! After that I headed home exhausted!!

When I got home Hubby was planting vegetables (tomatoes, onions, cilantro, squash, bell peppers, and watermelon) in our garden. He has done all of the planting this year. Even though I LOVE planting flowers in the Spring I just haven't had the energy. That is a Supa-bummer about being pregnant.... for me even the things I normally enjoy/look forward to just seem like a lot of work!! When I got home and saw him working away I got in the mood too and starting cleaning and doing some things on the porches.

Sunday the girls got up early again, of course, but I managed to stay in bed til 9:00! SWEET! I think I finally got up because Adler and Crosby were YELLING at each other. I think Crosby's leg was touching Adler.... remember those days Brother??? :) Our poor mother!! Those two drive me crazy with their constant bickering- this summer I am going to get them straightened out!! :)) Super Nanny to the rescue! As soon as Heath got home from work we headed to AC. My mom had some plants for us so we went out to see her for a little bit then it was off to the park for our niece Katie's 2nd Birthday party! The weather was beautiful and Crosby had a great time playing in the park with her cousins...

Happy 2nd Birthday Kaitlinn!!!!!

After the party we went home (with a quick pit stop at Taco Tico in Ark City!!) and Heath set up the pool. The girls got in and slid around for a little while. It didn't take Crosby long before she was FREEZING though!

It will take a couple of days to fill it (it is 4,500 gallons), but I am sure that it won't take long for the girls to be braving the cold and diving right in!!!
