This weekend''''



My crazy life leads me to Las Vegas this weekend. This will be Brie'el's last tournament. When you play high school ball you can no longer play club. I love high school ball. She practices at school. They are bused everywhere. I LOVE it. She made Varsity. I hope she has a great season. Last year she was injured and was out most of the year.

I hope the girls do well this weekend. It is always good to end on a good note.

It is going to be cold. I hope it is not windy. But....it usually is. Wish us luck!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving




First off all I want to wish everyone a happy turkey day. I look forward to this time of year. I love the holidays. I think Thanksgiving kicks off the Christmas season. It is also a countdown...to the best day ever. Christmas.

I am looking forward to a great dinner at my moms. I hope everyone has a great day. I am going to try hard not to consume 4,000 calories tomorrow. I read that is an average calorie intake.I guess that explains why I feel like I am in a food coma after we eat!!!

Kyler's trophy




Kyler is so excited about this trophy!!!! This last Saturday was our last soccer game for Kyler and Bryce. (No shedding of tears here!!!)

Kyler learned a lot and enjoyed the new friends he made on this team. We had great team parties at the park and we all had bunch of fun. I am super happy this league starts so early. So we are done before Thanksgiving!!! Good thinking!!!

My baby girl is sick!!!




I thought I would have some time to blog. I spoke too soon. Sunday night I tried to go to the movies with Frank. I got a call from Brie'el. It went something like this....

"Mom Brenlie threw up all over my room. It smells disgusting. It is in my soccer bag on my floor and bed. Mom she is sick!!!!"

My response..."I guess you were unable to get her to the bathroom?"


We went home. I have been snuggling with her for the past 24 hours. When she is asleep It's laundry time. I am sure by Thanksgiving it will be my turn!!!

I having been sleeping in Kelsey's bed, because it seems like she throws up more at night. I just want it over with. THROW UP is gross!!!

Marching Band




Keigan is on marching band. He is not into sports. Although he played baseball for about 10 years. He just got too old to play and had no desire to play in high school. But he really enjoys band. He spends a lot of time practicing. If you live in my neighborhood, you might hear them every morning bright and early.

Their band is small, but they are a proud bunch. Saturday I went to Mesa High School and watched our band perform. This band kicks some booty. They scored "Superior" Keigan was happy with that.

I brought Kelsey and she had a good time watching the bands play. She took a special interest in the color guard and the xylophone. She wanted to know why no one was wearing pink!!! Can you imagine a pink school uniform? Clearly she is 4!!!









I always tell my kids, try to find a passion. For Keigan it is marching band. This is a great group of kids. I like that he is busy and out of trouble. I like that he is making friends and having fun.






Bottom line.... I was proud of Keigan today.

I'd rather swing...



Kyler has soccer practice every Friday night. We are 2 games from being done with our season. Tonight he informed me he was done. I have to share our dialogue....

Kyler....I am done with soccer.
Mom......Really? I thought you were having fun.
Kyler....I am but... I'd rather swing.
Mom......Swing? That is not a sport.
Kyler....I know but it should be. Just look it up on the internet and make it one!!!!
Mom......Did you learn anything new at soccer?
Kyler....Yes. I do not want to run.
