The letter "P"

This week has been all about the letter "P" in kindergarten at Skyler's school. Today to finish off the week they all (including the teachers) wore pajamas to school, are going to have popcorn, decorate pumpkins and watch peter pan. I took some pictures this morning of her class.

My Little Witches

My mother-n-law and I finished the girls Halloween costumes and we had to test them out tonight. It seems like in every picture one is coming and the other is going but I hope you can see the costumes. I think they turned out pretty good.

Lynn, thank you so very much for all of you help on the skirts. I am at awe as to how I can just explain my "vision" and you can make it happen!!!

Playing with the camera

Ok, I was working on the camera trying to figure out why it has been fuzzy and figured out how to do this with the colors. I am still learning about it but here are some pics so far.
Blue...not so bad

WAY TOO PINK!

Skyler's 1st Soccer Game

Today was Skyler's first soccer game and I was amazed! Amazed at how well the kids did after having only one practice, how much team spirit & cooperation there was, how tough they all were, and most of all how much better Skyler did then I expected. She really surprised me! She made a few goals and when it was her turn to be goalie...not one ball made it in the net. She stopped about 5 balls from coming in!!! Everyone was talking about how great she was at goalie. She even had some hard blows running into other players causing her to flip over, fall on her back, fall on her face and one time she was on the ground and was fallen on by a big little boy and I was expecting some tears big time and she totally took it like a trooper. She got right back up and went after the ball again. The games are an hour long and there are only 7 players on our team so she played almost the whole game. What good exercise it was running for almost an hour straight. Then after the game was over she said., "Mommy, I want to play another game". She LOVED IT and she was so proud of herself.
Schuyler was coach and ref and he was laughing and running right along with them. He really enjoyed himself. I am so glad that he decided to coach as I know they both get enjoyment out of it.

Before her 1st practice. (like the shirt) :o)

Kicking towards the goal
Right when I was taking a picture...total wipe out! This was just as a boy flipped on and over her! She is the #7 on the ground after getting steamrolled. She got right back up and even recovered the ball. So tough! As for the boy...he wasn't so tough!
TEAM TIGERS!
Skyler and coach dad!
