Courtney's 1st Soccer Practice and 1st Soccer Game!

Courtney's soccer coach is named Dan, just like her Grandpa Dan! She was so excited that she knows two Dans. She loved her uniform and her new team is called the "Snowballers." It was almost the "Butterflies." She did get the ball once and almost scored a point for the other team! After the game she said "Mommy, I tried to score a goal but they wouldn't let me!" They are so cute at this age!

Practice: (Courtney is in Yellow)

Hogle Zoo

We went to the Hogle Zoo with our girls and two nephews, Carson and Caden. We all had a blast. They probably got sick of me taking pictures but they never complained. :)

SoCcEr CaMp!!!!!

Courtney LOVED soccer camp! Chris & Cassie enjoyed watching her! We think she may be a left footer. She writes and colors with both hands right now. Cassie cannot wait to coach Courtney and her team towards the end of August!

Wacky Wednesday! Mom painted Courtney's face!



Wacky Wednesday everyone pretended to fly!

Courtney was the only girl and did a great job defending the ball from those boys!

Other San Diego Activities

We found out Kylee LOVED the pool just like her big sister! (She did like to eat the sand at the beach as well but didn't have the camera with us.) Chris and Cassie attended a session in the San Diego Temple. (BEAUTIFUL Temple!!!) Another San Diego Vacation highlight: Courtney & Chris rode an elephant at the San Diego County Fair.
Most of the time Kylee tried to DRINK the pool!
Cute little Courtney!
Kylee, Chris & Courtney!

Fourth of July

We had a great time in Dana Point, CA with the Peterson's for the fourth of July. Although Cassie was a little homesick for Kanab's 4th of July celebration it was still fun to be with family and celebrate our nation's Independance Day!

San Diego Vacation

We traveled to San Diego for our week long vacation this year over the fourth of July. We visited Sea World, San Diego Zoo, the beach, the Petersen's (Chris's sister) and the Kitchen's (Cassie's cousins)! We had a blast!

Flowergril

I have so many other pictures to post from our vacation in San Deigo and Courtney's soccer camp but I wanted to get these ones up first. Courtney was the flowergirl at my cousin's wedding last weekend. She did a GREAT job! I, on the other hand, was helping out being the "wedding coordinator" and started bawling after sending Courtney & the ring bearer down the aisle. It was not even Courtney's wedding! They grow up so fast, I think I even cried at her recital, which reminds me, I need to post those pictures too!



Walking down the aisle with the ring bearer, Issac.



Almost there!



Pictures!
