Soccer, Volleyball, and Camping

As always, we have been very busy for the past week. We attended a BBQ for Steve and Jamie's 30th birthdays at our friends Shad and Shelley's house, Ayla had her first soccer game, and Flint went on his first camping trip.

The BBQ was fantastic! Shad grilled up some burgers, Shelley made some great cheesecake, and we played some volleyball. It was a great time, and we can't wait to do it again.



The following Tuesday Ayla had her first soccer game. As you can see she takes soccer quite seriously. I think that she spent more time eating than she did playing. Despite this, and being the only girl on her team, she scored the first goal and ended up with one additional goal at the end of the game. I think that she scored the most points on her team. She did great.

Meanwhile, Flint just hung-out on the sideline and cheered his sister on.



This past weekend we went camping, which was the first time for Flint. We hit the Madison south of Ennis with Ben, Mandy, and Jaxson. The boys and Ayla did some fishing (though Ayla was more into picking flowers than fishing) and luckily they had some success.



Mandy, Jaxson, Flint, Ayla, and I spent some time hanging out at camp, though Jaxson tried to climb into his backpack (I think he was trying to give us a hint). Though I think the kids had a great time playing with dogs and playing in the dirt.
