Weekend - Soccer and Lake Fun!

We started our Saturday morning with one of the kids favorite activities - riding their Big Wheels!

 

Then we went to Caleb's soccer game and he scored two goals! 

Ready to play! 

Team Huddle 

GO FROGS! 

 Go Caleb! 

Ella thinks she is part of the team - standing on the sidelines. 

It was team picture day so I snapped a quick picture! 

 

After the game, we headed to the lake....

and the girls started fishing as soon as we got there! 

Evan caught a fish so everyone wanted to see! 

 Ella wanted to swim so we stripped her down!

Ella didn't want to go any further when her feet hit the water...it was cold!

Caleb didn't seem to mind the water was like ice!

One happy boy when he is swimming! 

And the boys fished too! 

Ella worn a visor a lot this weekend and she reminded me of my aunt Frances :) 

Sunday morning PePa cut up a watermelon for everyone! 

The kids watched cartoons while we waited for it to get a little warmer outside. 

Ready for a boat ride in their PJs

Snack on the pier 

The lake wore everyone out! 

 

A fun weekend that went by too fast!



Taylors Every Day - week 17

Our week started out not so good - Mama, Corey and Ella got the stomach bug.  So Sunday, Monday and Tuesday looked a lot like this...

Ella feeling better but still wanting to hold her bucket

 

Wednesday - Everyone was feeling better and went back to work and school 

Ella had picture day - my pretty girl all dressed up!

But school wore this girl out - she crawled up in Corey's lap after supper and went fast asleep!

 

Thursday - Caleb had picture day! 

My handsome boy growing up too fast!

And Ella dressed herself and insisted she wore her cowboy boots to Bible Study!

 

 Friday morning we had a lazy morning

The kids cuddled up on the couch to watch some cartoons.

I just love their crazy hair in the mornings :)
