Are You Sure?

So it totally doesn't feel like winter here. It did snow once and by the end of the next day it all melted and once again returned to warmer temperatures.We had another beautiful day here last week so we decided to go out and have some fun. A bonus was Jacob was home so he got to come play too which made the girls so excited.
Savannah got ready for her last game by practicing her amazing kicking skills and Olivia kept trying to see if she was fast enough to steal the ball from her sister.
I forget why Savannah got to upset but I'm glad I captured the moment because I love her face and her dad is so tender to console her.


Olivia was just so excited to be out and about running around all over the yard.
But alas it was finally time to head back in so off Jacob went with his little buddy (Olivia is a total daddy's girl!)

Soccer

Savannah is the biggest nut! Today was her first soccer game and she was so excited about it. She woke me up at 5:30 to tell me she had a bad dream and then started asking if it was time to go play soccer yet. Luckily she fell asleep in bed with us for a bit longer but by 7:30 she was constantly asking if it was time to go. Finally at 10:30 she informed me she was ready to leave and had her jacket, hat, and scarf on and all I could do was laugh. She got her team shirt and had fun warming up with all the other kids from both teams. Here she is below with her cousin Avery, almost the whole game they got to play together and you'd usually find them holding hands. We're going to have to teach her that another rule of playing soccer is not holding hands while playing, this lead to many falls and not paying the best attention to where the ball was. They all did great though and it was so funny to watch. By the second half Savannah was getting worn out and by the end of the game she was just walking. A nice perk of this is that Savannah is now taking a nap because she fell asleep during quite time, its exhausting being a 3 year old soccer star after all.
When we got home she was so tired she just sat right in her chair while I got lunch ready.
Then we told her she didn't get to play soccer again till her practice Tuesday night and this was the face I got. Who knew she'd love soccer so much?
