Birth of a Soccer Star

We are proud to report that we now have a future soccer star in the family. On Tuesday Ayla started soccer. She had a blast and was the best one at practice (at least according to her mother). It also helped that she had a great partner. Steve showed her what to do, and she even listened, at least for a little while. Things went great until Ayla poked herself in the eye but blamed it onto Steve, that was the end of our soccer practice. Despite the tragic eye poking incident soccer was a hit and we can't wait until next Tuesday.

Currently Ayla, Flint, Challi, and Brandy are spending some time in Twin Bridges, MT, with Grandpa Clyde and Grandma Pat. Saturday was Grandpa Clyde's birthday and we celebrated by taking the dogs for a walk at the fairgrounds, playing with Ayla at the park, throwing rocks in the river, and by having dinner with Big Gary, Little Gary, Cindy, Carol, and Loren. Fun was had by all, and we wish Grandpa Clyde a fun filled year to come!
