A visit from the Parents

Everybody in my house has been sick this last week so it has taken me forever to get this post up.
Last weekend both of the kids were in a soccer tournament so my Parents came and spent a week with us. We had a very nice time sitting out on the back porch in the sunshine while the kids were at school, and of course we had to get some shopping in. Unfortunately I didn't get anything but the kids got SPOILED!! Dad did leave me money though so I get to go shopping later....THANK YOU DAD!!
The tournament was held here in Prescott Valley. I kind of miss traveling to the tournaments but it was nice to have it local. Both of the kids did pretty good. I was a little annoyed with Shay's team but I knew that before the tournament. Her coaches couldn't wait for soccer to be over so they could get to coaching soft ball. Both of her coaches quit so there wasn't even going to be a team anymore but they asked Tyler if he would do the coaching. They changed all of the practice days and rescheduled the field days so that he could do it. Hopefully the team improves a bit. The coaches didn't even know that we were supposed to play a second game on the second day so our team was a no show. Not very impressive for the home teams that were sponsoring the tournament.
Shayna's team didn't win any of their games. They never even made a goal, but they all played hard and had fun. That's all that matters anyway. The coaches were really awesome with the girls and took them all to Dairy Queen after the last game and got them whatever treat they wanted.




Britton's team won the first two games and lost the second two games. Fortunately they won the first two game far enough that the two losses didn't put them too far behind.




They ended up taking 3rd place....not too bad!


My favorite part of the whole week......
My Mom and I decided to surprise Shayna with a pedicure.


She loved it so much that she told me we are going to be doing that twice a month and for sure after every tournament. I'm so excited that I have a pedicure buddy?

Thank you for coming Mom and Dad. It means a lot to the kids that you will come and support them.
