Finally Halloween Posts

This Year our ward had a Trick or Trunk- Samantha had a soccer game and Jordan went with Dad and Sam to it. Then we carved pumpkins and that night it snowed. Finally We went trick or treating at Mainstreet Tooele.

Some days are like that

Ever have the days when it seems like all you end up doing is making more work for yourself? I was working on the calendar for the upcoming year. Getting pictures to put on the corresponding months, all it seemed to be that I ended up accomplishing is getting frustrated. Then I came to realize that I could have done to save myself time and aggravation, was 2 simple steps and not the 10 frustrating ones I was taking. I guess some days are like that. I guess that some days we are simply trying to hard to push through, when there is better way to get around from point A to B.

My Soccer Players

Here is Green Lightning's #5, The Golden Girls #3, & The Crushers #27.

Samantha has several coaches for her team, but one in common to Sarah's Team. Coach Casey- has a great saying that he tells the girls after he has talked to them about what things they need to do different in their playing- He'll ask what was not working and asks them what they need to be doing- His last comment is "Make the adjustment". I liked that statement so much I thought I would share it.

School Midterms already- Quarter #1

It is time for Midterms and I haven't even posted the first day of school photos- So I will correct that now.

Jordan's First day of Preschool-

Jason's birthday

It was Jason's 6th birthday here is how we celebrated: Birthday Party a week before. We had a family party at home the day of. And we had his first Soccer Game the night of his birthday. I also took treats to his school class, but I didn't take photos of that.

The Adidas Cup Tournament

It was quite the weekend for our family. Samantha's Soccer Team participated in the Adidas Cup Tournament. The first game the girls had was on Thursday- Our team won by 1-0. The second game was Friday. The game tied 1-1.

The weather forcast for Saturday was for possible rain in the morning and nice weather in the afternoon. The truth was the there was definitely rain and definitely nice weather in the afternoon. Their first game was at 8 AM and the rain ebbed off for most of the game- till a lightning strike that was too close for comfort drove everyone undercover. The game was called, they lost. However, because they won and tied they were eligible for playing the final game. They played the same team from that morning and lost under blue skies.

Here are the photos of a group hug before the last game and the their metals for "runner-up".
