Official Photo

We received Reagan's "official" photo from her soccer season today.  I think she was the prettiest girl on the team!!

Season's End

Tonight was the end of Reagan's 2012 soccer season.  A local restaurant provided a BBQ for all of the families as a celebration of the season.  Reagan had a great year playing soccer and she was sad to see it end.

Reagan wore a headband to school today and Cooper wanted to be "just like Reagan"!

 Reagan's new "trick" is picking Cooper up and carrying him across the room

 Cooper enjoyed his hot dog at the BBQ

 Reagan was not into pictures tonight

 Go Blaze!

 in the mix of things

 Go Reagan

 It was a good game, but the Blaze was handed their 3rd loss of the year 3-2 ~ our coach's daughter scored one for the other team:(

 after the game, Coach Matt handed out awards and trophies

 Reagan received the "Most Spirited Player" award.  Her coach said she was always in a good mood and was always cheering on and encouraging her team.

 checking out her certificate

 just precious

 Reagan gave her coach a card ~ she wrote on the inside that he was "the best coach a girl could ever have".

 Most Spirited ~ Reagan

 I think her cheeks hurt from smiling about her awards!

Playing in the Rain

Back on the field for another soccer game tonight!

Reagan played the best she's played this season

 ...and then came the rain

 and more rain

 but that didn't stop them from playing

 or winning ~ the Blaze won 2-1

 still smiling even though she's soaking wet

Manic Monday

Two kids + two sports + two hours = one tired mom!  Reagan's soccer team had a make up game tonight and Cooper had t-ball practice back to back.



warming up

 Cooper found a nice shady spot under a tree to play his video game

 getting in some good kicks

 it was a good game, but the Blaze was not victorious

 fielding practice

 batting practice

finally, I was able to upload a video!

Thursday Activities

Believe it or not, there are very few photos in this post!! 



Cooper and I took our daily walk around the neighborhood, but this time it took us almost 2 1/2 hours because he has discovered the camera on my phone and he had to take a picture with every step he took.  Literally, every.step.he.took.  But he had fun and now I have over 500 pictures on my phone of dirt, rocks, flowers and the road!

 the Blaze was back in action today after rain cancelled their game on Tuesday.  It didn't turn out too well for the Blaze this time around...they suffered their first loss 4-1.

 but, on a positive note, Reagan was as cute as ever!!!

Tuesday Tales

Today was "stay at home day" for Cooper.  We had breakfast, morning lesson and then headed outside to enjoy the weather.  We took a walk around the neighborhood and then spent some time in the backyard playing.

taking a little break before playing ball

 sweet boy

 I asked him to give me his "best smile" and this is what I got!!

 kick

 he had to take another break ~ this time for electronics

 Just as we were headed out to Reagan's soccer game, it began to storm...so there was no soccer game for the Blaze

 Reagan did indulge me and agreed to having a couple of pictures taken
