Soccer

Jackson just finished up his first soccer season with his team the Cheetahs (yes, they were that fast). He had a great (meaning very patient) coach. I'm so impressed with these guys who spend their Saturdays coaching three and four year olds!
Jackson is a great soccer player! He hardly ever asked for break and stayed with the ball the whole game. He was a great defensive and offensive player and scored on average about one goal per game. I think I had just as much fun watching him play as he did playing. Jackson's favorite parts of soccer: putting his uniform on every week (especially his shin guards), scoring goals, and he LOVED getting a trophy at the end of the season.

My legs are gross

I've tried a couple of new outdoor activities these past couple of months. New sport #1: Skim boarding. The point is to slide across the shore on a very thin wooden board. My Result: Never achieving any balance, falling off, and sliding over a layer of broken shells.


New sport #2: Mountain Biking...who says there are no hills in Florida?! A mountain bikercist (thats what they SHOULD be called) friend took me out near Brandon to a Bike Trail where we biked about 4 hours on crazy hills and ridges. I only fell about five times. My legs were pretty bruised up and I was left with this nice scratch...

Did I tell you?...

Lilly turned 2...3 months ago.

Lilly is a talker just like her brother was/is. She loves pink and insists all girls love pink and boys love blue. She loves to take care of her baby dolls and at least once a day I catch her in the sink washing her hands. She also loves to swing on the big kid swings and go "super high". She loves to be spun around, thrown up to the sky and to be tickled. Lilly adores her big brother and will do anything to get his attention and will try to do anything and everything he does. Happy Birthday to our "Lilly Badilly", or as Papa likes to call her, "our little dikeeny (sp?) baby"!

Where have I been?

It's been over 3 months since I last posted. Lame. I've been going to school and other time monopolizing things.
