Avalyn's 1st day of 2nd grade

Avalyn started 2nd grade at a new school this year, Mt. Charleston Elementary.  She has been a real trooper about switching schools this year.  She was pretty upset about leaving some of her friends, but being the social butterfly that she totally is, she is excited to make some new friends!


And this is what we did while she was at school...

After our fun day at the park, we headed over to the school for Briley's kindergarten testing.  Greg took the rest of the kids out to the playground while I filled out some paperwork and waited for Briley.  Tason fell off of one of the slides right on his face.  My poor BABY!!!! P.S. Don't worry - he's just sleeping in the photos.

The first game...

...was a WIN!!! Against a boy's team even!  Avalyn was our little throw-in superstar, getting it past the boys and right to her teammates.  Great Game!

seven and five

Happy birthday Avalyn and Briley!!!

I (heart) SOCCER!!!

Soccer season has started again! Avalyn moved up to the U-8 division this year, that means a slightly bigger field, score keeping and goalies.  At the first practice, Avalyn was very excited to see some familiar faces on the team this year!  It looks like we are going to have a fun season!

Splash Park

Today was a super fun day at a splash park with Aunt Natalie, Carson and Blake, plus Rachel and Kembree!  Tason was soooo excited that he fell asleep right away!  Luckily it was just a power nap, so he didn't miss out on too much fun.  Even Daddy joined in, he's always a good sport and loves playing with the kids!  We really wish that we had one of these splash parks in Pahrump!!! And no better way to end a great day than with a snow cone/ice cream combo from SNOASIS!
