Why???

Why am I not blogging daily? Why does my house look like it was ransacked?
Because of this cute munchkin Macy. She's almost 7 months!!
She is so much fun, but man is it hard having a baby all over again!!!

The HEAT is on!

After an 8 month break from club ball, Tyler's back to running our schedule!
Little League & Fall ball weren't enough... we need it 3-4 days a week.
His new team is The Heat.
(and the tongue?.... it's still hanging out) ;op


Halloween 2010

My Killer Bees

and my nerd with his nerd friend Bart, I mean Jake.



Dylin the Defender!

 Dylin's first season of Soccer just ended. She is the defender (aka goalie).
The great thing is, she is really good at it! Her personality plays a strong roll out on the field. She is a character! Always yelling to the girls, telling them where to go, where to stand on a throw in, and when there's a corner kick you'll hear her scream, "GET ON THE ARC!"
Her coach is always saying, "thank you Dylin," because the girls aren't listening to him.
The other great news, her doctors are okay with her playing soccer as the defender. Because there isn't much physical contact, she doesn't have as large of risk hurting her kidneys. :o)

She was NOT happy the opposing team made a goal!!

The BEST scavenger hunt EVER!

I have this problem of outdoing myself. I have to top my own adventures. Tyler wanted to have another scavenger hunt! I thought, how in the world can I think of more things to do then the last several that we've had!!! No worries, just let me wait til the last minute and it'll be a hit! We had three teams. Each team had 1 hour 15 minutes to complete whatever items they chose on the list. They ranged between 1-3 points. If your team arrived back to the house late, a point was deducted for each minute late. Oh and of course, pictures must be taken!!
Did you think that was all? No way, we had shirts made! Team colors, names & jersey #'s on the back.

This was the list:
(most items were completed, but I only chose a few of the best pictures to post)

ONE POINT CHOICES:


- Picture in front of Krispie Kreme's while the Hot Now sign is lit.
- Each kid get an In N Out hat
- Go to any fire station and ask for one hat and one sticker
- Group pic with anyone with a name badge on
- One point for every napkin you bring back with a different logo or restaurant name on it.
- Have a store employee (any store) announce over the loud speaker, "Happy Birthday Tyler!"
- Get 12 mild or hot sauce packets from Taco Bell
- Get a fortune cookie, bring it back unopened.

- Find a Red Box with the Karate Kid Movie on the display board, take a picture with team pointing to it.

TWO POINT CHOICES:

- Go to any store that sells hoola hoops, all team members hoola hoop at the same time.
- Chinese fire drill (on a SAFE street)
- Group pic with anything that says Las Vegas in/on it
- Find a fountain and all members feet need to dip in.



- Fit all kids inside a grocery store cart



- Ride the carousel at the District


- Go to Baskin Robbins, each member sample pralines and cream ice cream.




THREE POINT CHOICES:

- Go to a grocery store, bowl a frozen turkey under one members legs while knocking down three stove top stuffing boxes



- Go to McDonalds and order a hamburger with 35 pickles on it. (bring it back)


- Get a menu from any restaurant (no copies, has to be an actual menu)
- Go to any GV Ranch statues and dress them in one piece of clothing or accessories from each kid in the group.



- Get any fast food restaurant to give you a kids meal toy
- Go into a store that sells shoes and every member try on high heels


- Go the kids are at the District play area and all members do snow angels for 30 seconds

 
The pink team came in a few minutes early with 34 points. The blue team was at 29, and then the red team rolled in 6 minutes late!! They had 40 points but with the 6 point deduction, they tied with the pink team. The pink team won $5 gift cards to Justice, the red team won $5 gift cards to Target and the blue team won baseball cards.
 
When they returned, we made oreo milkshakes, and killed time at Anthem park playing wiffle ball in the freezing cold til 11pm, toilet papered two homes, got slurpees at 11:30 and came back home!
 


 
The games didn't even stop there. They all spent the night and of course everyone fought for the couch. So we played toss the marshmallow in the bowl. Whom ever got to the highest bowl, won a spot on the couch. Think this was easy? No way, it was tie after tie and we went into rounds. After midnight, we had winners!!
