Cinco de Mayo!

We have a week of celebrations at our house this week. It started with our anniversary. Then, we got to celebrate my birthday and Camden's birthday and then, Mother's Day in a few days. It's a busy week at our house! On my birthday, we enjoyed having my parents in town and got to have lunch at Genghis Grill (my pick). In the evening, we celebrated as a family at Chill Zone Yogurt.

15 YEARS!

On May 1, we celebrated 15 years of marriage at the Melting Pot. It was a great day and we enjoyed a night out! I'm not sure how we are already to 15 years. It seems like just yesterday I was trying to get all my school done and all the wedding preparations in place. God has been so good to us. We realized long ago that making our marriage work meant dying to ourselves everyday. We are more in love today than ever. We can't wait to celebrate 50 years together!

More Soccer Pictures

Payton and Maylee Grace are doing great playing soccer. This weekend, Maylee Grace had 1 goal and Payton had 2 goals! Payton plays some pretty amazing defense. He's got the idea of defense down. He moves much faster on the field and I've had a hard time getting any good action shots of him.

Daddy helped coach Payton's team this week. He did a great job and Payton loved that his dad was the coach.

White Sands, NM!

Matt had a trip he needed to take for work, so we all decided to tag along and make a little vacation out of it. We stayed in the mountains of beautiful Ruidoso, NM. When we arrived on Tuesday night, there were several deer right beside the parking lot. I couldn't believe how close they were letting us get to them. Maylee Grace wanted to walk right up and touch them. Then, on Wednesday morning, we woke up to snow covering the ground. We traveled down to the White Sands National Monument to spend a few hours playing the sand dunes. It was so beautiful and serine. The kids had a blast playing in and sledding down the dunes.

They look like wee little ants!

We visited a Pistachio farm which also happened to have the World's Biggest Pistachio!! They had over 12,000 trees. It was a pretty fun stop with lots of pistachio samples!

Today in Sports

The kids did great this week in soccer! Maylee Grace scored 4 goals for her team.....and.....1 goal for the other team! She was also awarded the Excellence in Sportmanship medal. She was quite proud of herself!

Payton scored his first soccer goal this week! He was super excited. In the second half of the game, he so graciously volunteered (after being asked) to play for the other team because they didn't have enough players. It worked out great, because then all the kids got to be on the field!

Take Me Out to the Ball Game

On Friday, we decided (very last minute) to go out to the afternoon Isotopes game. It was a beautiful afternoon and we had such a great time. We bought some cheap tickets and sat in the grass to watch the game. What a fun afternoon!

Balloon Museum

We headed out to the Balloon Museum this week to for their story time and free admission day. We had never been before and learned lots of new things about hot air balloons. The boys especially enjoyed the part of the museum that had gliders. Camden was intrigued by the way the gliders flew.

Resurrection Day

Maylee Grace and her sweet new friend Kate from church. Their birthdays are only a few days apart! They love to be together.

Maylee Grace's 2nd goal of the day!

Please excuse my loud cheering! :)

Soccer

The littles started soccer this weekend. I was very surprised at how quickly both kiddos took to the game. It was fun to watch them do so well. Our cutie Maylee Grace scored 2 goals!

Aunt Rachel's Visit

Aunt Rachel came to visit us for her Spring Break. We had lots of fun while she was in town. We went to the zoo, the library and to a Skippy Jon Jones play.
