Mixer

 Sophia's team was neon this year for the mixer.  The Napping Neon Ninjas, slightly fitting.  She found most of her clothes in Sadie's drawers, which added to the ridiculousness of the whole event.  I personally love the head dress.  Va Va Voom!

Chargers vs. Falcons

The Chargers played horrible today!  They couldn't put anything together to save their lives, but that didn't stop us from having a great time!

Saturday Soccer

Today the Enforcers (Sadie's team) had Sadie doing double duty in the goal.  She did a great job.  She stopped at least 30 shots, three got past her but she looked amazing out there!  Unfortunately, they weren't able to score so they didn't win, but she played her heart out!  Madison's team, the Flaming Katnis, had a win today, and Madison as usual had a great game.

Queen Bee's at the Market

Vanessa, Kristin and I were excited to see the Queen Bee Market come to Escondido.  Wahoo my favorite craft fair in my own back yard.  We lined up early to get the swag bags, it was a nice way to spend a Saturday morning before the soccer begins.

Monkey Around

Today we went to the browns to finish the sock monkey's we have been working on for absolutely weeks!  We finally finished.  Remind me never to buy the girls a "craft project" as a gift.  If you get a sock monkey gift from Sadie as a gift it means I really don't like you!

Sophia's Volleyball

Sophia hasn't had much interest in sports, but she has a huge interest in being a social butterfly.  Since all her friends are on the volleyball team, she has had a change of tune!  She isn't bad either, as long as ! don't distract her by taking pictures.

Popsicle Art

Madison has been using our popsicle maker all the time in this heat wave we have been having.  I'm not exactly sure what she is making them out of.  I think she is using the snow cone syrups, come to think of it I hope she is cutting that with water.  Oh well, I'm too hot to care.  She made these for all of us, Sadie can't wait to get her hands on the first one!

Limo?

 For the Dave Matthews Band concert, Mike and Karyn said they had a few friends taking a limo to the concert and wanted to know if we wanted "in."  Of course!  I was so not expecting this to pull up.  This bus was so funny I can hardly explain it.  I just keep thinking about all the disappointed men as we pulled up in this stripper covered bus and a bunch of middle aged couples got out!  Fun concert and considering it took a couple hours to get out of the parking lot, the bus was a great call!

Senior?

Sadie didn't want me to come in she had a surprise for me…  Should I be concerned by the fact that my 8 year old thinks that this is a "surprise."  How about my 12 year old who spent a considerable amount of time making paper sombreros?  Should I have any concerns about them dressed like this as I grocery shop with them at Vons?  Maybe I should, but for some reason I am laughing too hard to care!  My real concern is that picture week is this week and I am really hoping those mustaches aren't drawn with a sharpie.
