I have some serious catching up to do. I haven't blogged about Sierra's fantabulous Pirate sleepover party. The end of Sammi's soccer season, or about Jackson's football season. Oh yeah, the old lady is me...I'm old 38 years old I feel it too, such a shame. Sierra's party was fun, treasure hunts, food, games, and lot's of giggly girlies! Sammi's soccer team finished up last Wed. Oct. 8th and we had her team and their families over for a barbeque afterwards, I love living close to the school. HONESTLY I really do like being able to host things like this. Jackson has one more week of Football, he finishes on a Wednesday and basketball starts on the next Monday. Who needs more than four days off (me for one)? I knew that as my kids got older that I would get busier just attending their functions but I didn't anticipate how that would often pull our family in different directions. I guess because Sammi and Jackson are only a year apart in school this is exasperated somewhat. For example gymnastics for Zoe and Sierra are on the same day as Sammi's soccer. Sammi's last soccer game and team party was the same night as Jackson's court of honor for scouts and so on and so on..... Good thing five kids have accustomed Michael and I to just waving at each other in passing. The Mom and Dad of this crazy crew are looking forward to October 30th when we head off to another blessed Irrigation Association Show--I love those sprinkler geeks!

I love the sprinkler geeks too. I get to see my sister more. Loved the pirate girls! Way to go Sammi and Jax on your various sports, scouting and general drive-your-parents-crazy achievments.
Becky,
Can't believe you are 38. Does that make me over 40? Love the pirate theme for the ? time!! She needs to read some Kathleen Woodwiss books of pirates and the womem they steal away! J/K Maybe in a few years! A little racey for a 8 year-old!! Maybe you should read them and then you and Michael could do more that wave at each other........... Happy (late) Birthday! I should know when my favorite neice has a B'Day. Love you lots. Auntie D
Wow! Now I'm rethinking why I've had mine close together...yikes, what I have to look forward to! You are one busy lady...Happy Birthday too :) You forgot to mention that on top of all of this, you take on those crazy preschoolers twice a week! Time flies when you're having fun, right?!?
Love,
Katie
I have been thinking the same thing lately - and I know it is only going to get worse. I swear I was zipping around to more places yesterday afternoon than I thought humanly possible. Parent teacher conference, tumbling class, dentist appt., halloween party, etc. Once school gets out for the day I give up all hope I will get anything done for myself!
I wish your sprinkler party was in Phoenix. I can't wait two more years!!
Oh Becky, you crack me up. You are Super Mom! and you make it look easy. Sprinkler geeks? Do take pictures.
Happy Belated Birthday. The basketball girls need to have a monthly lunch to celebrate all our birthdays. We deserve it!
Happy birthdays, happy end of fall sports and happy sprinkler geeks convention. Enjoy!!!
