Spring Soccer Season!

Spring soccer season is keeping us busy with Caitlin, Courtney and Spencer playing soccer for the YMCA.  They have all had winning teams and are enjoying playing.  It is Caitlin and Courtney's first time playing and they have taken to it very easily (probably because they've been watching Rachel and Spencer play since they were born.)  The only challenge is that they moved the fields to New Jersey this year which has made practices and games a half hour away.  In the past, they've been right by our house but the land was sold that they used to lease so they had to find new fields.  Overall, it's been a great season!

Another Sunday Photo Shoot

Rachel, Caitlin and Courtney love going outside on Sunday afternoons and taking pictures.  They capture the beauty in our yard as well as their own beauty!

Spring Fling

Rachel and her friend, Rachel

Rachel and her friends went to the spring fling at the middle school.  I was proud of Rachel because she chose to dress modestly, the only of her friends to do so.  They had a good time but I think they actually enjoyed taking pictures better than the dance itself.

The blondies!  Drea, Rachel and Kim, all dressed up and looking good!

Rachel's Orchestra Concert

 We had the privilege of attending Rachel's orchestra concert.  It was a wonderful evening, particularly because her orchestra director was retiring so many alumni came and played with the kids.  It was a long concert; in fact, Spencer actually fell asleep during it because it got so late but we all really enjoyed it. 

More spring pics

When I published the last post, I didn't realize there were even more spring pictures.  But here they are and all the kids are represented this time!

 Rachel has really blossomed into an amazing photographer.  I love this butterfly on the lilacs and the bumblebee picture as well!  Very impressive!

Spencer, sporting his awesomely signed cast for his broken wrist.

Spring--finally!

 Courtney and Rachel decided to take some pictures of the yard today blooming in the spring.
