Yes, I put a picture of my child blinking on my blog! At this point I have to rely on other people to take pictures and send them to me, so this is the only one I have! This is Isabelle, Kiana and Caroline inbetween soccer games on their way to lunch.
Whew, am I tired! Isabelle had a soccer tournament this weekend, and they said something about "scattered" showers. Try continuous showers. Saturday was really chilly and rainy for both her games. They came out strong and won their first game 4-1. The we fed them lunch. Big Mistake. I think it weighed them down or something because they lost the next game 3-2 (we're going to try Red Bull for lunch next time!). Isabelle had a great time at lunch since we took 2 of the players with us in our car. She thought it was just great! I thought it was great when someone else suggested a restaurant and they happened to serve gluten free products there!! We had several "almost" goals in the second half and that was VERY exciting for the crowd. One literally bounced off the goal post! The team that beat us had just lost earlier that morning 10-0 and we had to play the winner on Sunday. Sunday morning was very nice and temperate outside, and we even saw some hot air balloons going up nearby. The parents were a little nervous about the opposing team, I mean they had won both their previous games (10-0 and 4-0). Our girls played awesome, and only let the other team get 1 goal (they lost 1-0). They ended up in 3rd place in their bracket which isn't too shabby for having only ever played 1 game together as a team. So we took off like a pack of cheetahs and raced to Costco to buy food for the upcoming party that evening.
Maria capped off the weekend with her First Communion, and could a girl get any cuter??? She was thrilled to have it here (finally!). She had on her new white dress and Isabelle's veil, it was precious. Maria somehow ended up leading the procession of kids into the church and was the first child to receive communion. How does she do this? Her soccer jersey number this year is also 1 and that's what she was given when she last played in first grade as well. She woke up tired this morning but very pleased with all of her "holy" gifts from last night. She'll probably try to wear all the new jewelry she got when she gets home from school! I promise to get some pictures up very soon!

Ok, two things -- first Isabelle looks just like your Mom and second where the heck is this gluten free restaurant and what is the name. I am always looking for places to eat. Love reading your posts!!!
Oh, jeez...didn't realize Isabelle was blinking. I 'll send more!
Julies, it's kind of cute!! I'll take whatever you send though, we should check out the website for more game pics...
Checked it. There weren't many great ones (of our girls anyway) and they only took pictures at the first game. Bummer...
