2 Seasons Down, 1 To Go

The girls ended two of their sports seasons on a REALLY high note. E had her last soccer game and got to play goalie the first half. During the second half, she made her most amazing goal ever. Way to go E!! They got trophies and ice cream after the game (doesn't sound too pleasant to me since it was about 40 degrees outside).


K started her day on a new pony (that we were planning on buying). Pepper is adorable, but a little too much for K it turned out. He was great at the barn, but went a little nuts at the show. She stayed on, though, and finished each course -- just a little faster than most!


She rode in another division on her trusty Angel, and ended up getting Reserve Champion. Way to go K!! After the regular show was over, they had some fun classes. Pepper made the cutest Mickey Mouse you have ever seen! K got back on Angel and did the champaign, string, musical stalls, egg and spoon classes. The best, however, was watching her barrel race!! We ended our day at a friend's house in her haunted loft. S spent all his time up there jumping out and scaring people. I heard he was hanging off the hay bails like a dead person and then screaming when someone walked by! We roasted s'mores, bobbed for apples, and watched the Rockies lose (AGAIN). I'm still tired!!!!

Go Ahead and Laugh

It was a sad day today because I was unable to get tickets to the World Series (after trying for 2 days). They are a bit expensive on Craig's list!

However, all was not sad. My Fantasy Basketball team was drafted today! Yes, I did say 'fantasy basketball' and I did say 'my'. Scary, huh? I am in a league with my 3 brothers, one sister-in-law, and one of their former bosses. That makes it even scarier, doesn't it!? Just because I play volleyball and enjoy watching a lot of sports, does not mean I know squat about managing a basketball team! I mean, I can tell you the Rockies' batting order off the top of my head, but I only recognized one player on my team. Are you laughing yet? My brother, however, thought I could handle this. I'm thinking they just needed some way to laugh at me since I'm not around anymore! I'll let you know how it goes. Any advice?

Go Rockies!!!!

We must say it again..........


Go Rockies!! It was Rockies Spirit Day at E's school today, and K and S decided they would wear their purple and black as well. I am reserving my shirt for Game #4 of the World Series (I'm actually not as confident as I sound that we will actually be able to get the tickets). We'll find out Monday morning at 10:00!
