Summer continues

The schedule around our house doesn't seem to be slowing down at all. Almost every weekend we are running from one place to another. I'm looking forward to a Saturday where we have nothing on the calendar. As that doesn't seem to be a possibility any time soon, maybe I'll look at scheduling a free Saturday sometime in 2010. Until that time comes, we continue to enjoy our time together with family and friends. Below are some pictures of the craziness and fun so far.
We are looking forward to seeing my family in July at my mom and dad's house. It will be fun to relax and spend some time just hanging out and catching up. I'm sure we'll also find some fun pictures to take and post :)

Summer and soccer

We are 3 weeks into summer break and our schedule has yet to slow down. Maryna just finished soccer last weekend as she guest played with another team in a tournament. Her team finished second in the tournament and Maryna scored 4 goals in 3 games (high scorer). For the finals, the girls all sprayed their hair to match their uniforms.

Maryna's regular team finished strong on their season and won their division....this same team finished 5th in their division last season. What a great improvement from the team and great coaching from Brad.

Garrett still continues to do summer pick up games with his team (for practice/fun). He will probably play in a couple of 3v3 tournaments this summer. Both kids have tryouts for next year on the 27th and 28th of this month.

We have had a busy summer so far and it doesn't look like it is going to slow down any time soon. We have already had 4 graduation open houses that we've attended along with all the soccer stuff finishing up. This weekend is Garrett's team party, my birthday and father's day along with some adult soccer activities. Next weekend is soccer tryouts and then VBS begins on the 29th. The following weekend is the 4th of July and then we leave for Oklahoma on the 9th. We arrive back in town on the 13th and then Brad plays in a tournament on the 18th and 19th. Wwe leave for Chicago on the 25th as Brad's cousin is getting married. The following weekend is August 1st and pre-school activities begin along with the soccer season.

As you can see, summer vacation really isn't a vacation but we enjoy all of our activities together. We are excited to spend time with family in Oklahoma in July.

Wishing everyone a safe and happy summer!
