Weekend Fun

 This weekend has been one of the best, if I do say so myself. Saturday my nieces kicked some little kid butt at their soccer games. Elizabeth's team won 9-0 almost 10-0 but the referee made a stupid call. But whatever, they still won! ha Her team has gotten so much better since last season. They are all doing really well with passing and dribbling the ball across the field. And this one girl, Clarissa made like 5 goals in maybe 15 minutes!! Amanda finally listened to us and switched April from the team she was on last season. The coach never really let her play the positions she was good at or would only leave her in the game for 20 minutes. And April is REALLY good at soccer! So he was a loser, and was a little too touchy feely with the girls. But Aprils new team is the pink lightnings and her coach is pretty awesome. He knows exactly her greater moves and keeps her in the right positions. So she gets to play the whole game!! They wont their game 2-0. Joshua's age in soccer doesn't keep score since there's no refs. Its more of the coaches teaching them all about soccer. So the coaches are on the field the whole time showing the kids where to stand. Josh loves it! His coach is pretty cool too, he lets him kick the ball inside the field a lot. He's the littlest guy on the field so he hasn't really gotten a hold of the ball except for once and you better believe everyone was screaming "GO JOSH!!! TAKE THAT BALL". I can't wait until Khylie can play. Benny and I want to become coaches when she is old enough. I guess we need to do some research on soccer. lol

Well after their games they came to spend the night with us. Benny played soccer out in the backyard with them. It was nice to see them so happy. They don't really have a father figure around so it does them good to be around Benny. They also helped me make truffles and help Benny wash is truck. I woke up this morning at 9:15am and went and asked them if they wanted to go to church or sleep in, all three of them sat up and said CHURCH! :o) So we rushed to make it to church, got there about 10:20 so only 20 minutes late. lol I was so proud of them all three of them went to children church. I thought Josh would cry since his class was separate from the girls but he stayed in their class the entire service. And might I add it was an amazing service!! Pastor Chuck is so awesome and really knows how to preach the word of God where you can actually understand what he's talking about. After the service, on our way to get the kids from children church I told Benny we needed to get them bibles soon. The first thing the girls said when we got them out of class was "we need Holy Bibles!". It was so cute! So on the 15th we plan on getting them youth bibles and Josh & Khylie kid bibles. After church Benny and the kids went out and played some more soccer while I made sloppy joes. I was surprised that all of them ate them without any complaints. They're so picky its so hard to please every one of them! lol After lunch Benny took them to the store to get a brisket to make for dinner. I stayed to clean up and ended up crashing out afterward. Glad they let me take an hour power nap! I swear those kids are obsessed with soccer they played all day today. So after dinner we played the new zoo land game Khylie got for her birthday. They all had a blast!! I loved seeing them all get along. Khylie, Josh, April and Lizzy were all jumping up and down acting like the animals as the game calls for them to do at certain points. It was hilarious! I'm glad it was a game where everyone won, so they all got two pieces of candy. I put Khylie in the bath and my parents took the girls and Josh home. Khylie crashed out right after we put her to bed, she did not get up once! So starting this next week I'm going to try and keep her from taking naps to see if that helps her crash out like she did tonight. Since she didnt take a nap today.
