Soccer

We have finished up another SUPER seasons of Upward Soccer.

We {without my camera) attended the Award Celebration last night.

The boys watched a SUPER fun magician, got new Upward soccer balls for awards, and enjoyed soccer themed cupcakes!

We had a great season and a great team!

Unfortunately, because of

rain

forgetfulness

and laziness

I only got a few decent pictures of the boys playing soccer.

Henry warming up before the game.

Grant concentrating hard to kick the ball!

Eli hanging out in his stroller watching the game.

Serious soccer players!

Eli entertained himself with acorns {and snacked on a few too} while Henry and Grant played a double header!

Not Me! Monday

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.
This week I did NOT lose my checkbook, and then proceed to freak out a little when I realized it was missing. I did NOT accidentally drop it in a fast food restaurant while trying to carry my {huge} one year old, my purse, a bag of greasy food, and a diet soda. There is NO way that I had my hands so full {and I only had on kiddo with me}that I didn't notice my checkbook falling out of my purse. Luckily there are NOT still some honest people in the world who took my lost checkbook over to one of my bank branches across the street!

I did NOT have to steal my sisters sweater at the fall festival Friday night, because I wore a short sleeve shirt. I would never wear clothes that weren't appropriate for the season {or the changing of the seasons...since the cold front moved in Friday afternoon}!

I would NEVER let my children {all three of them} wear shorts in chilly weather just because they didn't have any pants that fit. I did NOT let them wear their SUPER cute long sleeve Halloween shirts with shorts, because that would just be silly! While at the {chilly} fall festival, Eli did NOT have snot icicles hanging from his nose!

I did NOT attempt to take a picture of the boys in their SUPER cute long sleeve Halloween shirts, only to end up with these three less than perfect pictures!

{Eli was not in the mood for pictures}

We did NOT spend most of the day Saturday at the soccer fields getting wind/sunburned. I did NOT neglect to put sunscreen on Eli, and he did NOT end up with a SUPER red face by Saturday afternoon.

Random Thoughts...and Some Funnies!

Henry had to take a pumpkin to school this week. I wasn't sure what size to get, so I asked him what size pumpkins some of the other kids had brought. I held my hands out and showed him the size of a small decorative pumpkin. He looked at my hands and said, "No, not a baby pumpkin. More like a brother pumpkin." How cute is that!?!

*************************

I had to pry whats left of this crayon out of Eli's hands and mouth this morning. Apparently red crayons are pretty tasty, because he didn't give it to me without a fight! And I'm pretty sure that this is not all of the crayon....I'm thinking he either ate it or hid it away for a snack for later?!? *************************
I have been in a little bit of a funk lately. I don't know if it's the weather or just because I don't feel good. I haven't taken any pictures {other than the one of Eli's half eaten crayon} in almost two weeks. I know....how sad is that! And it's not like we have been sitting at home either. We have been doing all kinds of stuff and I have no photographic evidence of it!
*************************
ANTS! We have ants in our house...and we don't know where they are coming from. They have been in the living room {a trail of them were going up the couch to eat all the crumbs that were hiding under the cushions} and in Eli's room. Eli has gotten up two mornings this week with ant bites on his face. Poor baby is being attacked at night I guess?!?
***************************

All three boys got haircuts yesterday. And I think I came home with at least half of what she cut stuck to my clothes because Eli decided that instead of sitting nicely in the chair, he was going to flop around like a fish out of water. FUN TIMES.

***************************

I made the boys some SUPER cute shirts for Halloween this week. I used the fabric that I posted about last week for Heidi's Monthly Craft Challenge. I have a few more things that I want to do with the fabric...I just have to find the time {and energy} to work on them! The boys are wearing their shirts to the elementary school fall festival today...so hopefully I will have some pics to share of their SUPER cute shirts.
************************

The fall weather is finally here...at least for now anyway. The lows are supposed to be in 40's this weekend and I am SO excited that it is finally starting to feel like fall instead of an endless summer of unbearable heat!

*************************

I guess that is all the randomness that I have for now. We will be fall festivaling {yeah I just made that a verb} and at the soccer fields for most of the weekend! I hope everyone has a SUPER weekend!
