| I'd like to tell you that we had the best spring break ever. Like I said, I'd like to tell you that. The first day was pretty great. The kids played and played and played. They even fashioned kites for the blustery day out of string and grocery bags. By the second day Mr. Handsome arrived home from the hospital with my declaration that spring break needed to end. We both concluded we don't need the district to designate a vacation week for our family. We'd rather our kids stay in school and keep learning. We'll pull them out for a "break"when we're good and ready. |

Soccer season started for all the kids, but Coy. After the first official Saturday of games, Mr. Handsome and I were considering pulling the older three out and putting Coy in. He was the only one who didn't cry that day. Most of the season has been cold and rainy. We don't have any first game pictures of Emery because it down poured during most of her game. Fortunately she had a dad willing to brave the elements with her for the full 6 periods. I spent most of her game walking between the field and our van where I strapped the kids in and put on a movie. Nothing says "cozy"better than watching a movie in your car while it is raining mad outside. |

| His face looks menacing. Don't be fooled. It is. He was the only one who soaked his shoes in a mud puddle and liked it. |
 |
| We convinced Dashle by the end of his game to stop crying and cheer for ORANGE! Thankfully he has the good natured influence of his buddy Anika to pep him up when he frets over missed opportunities to kick the ball. |

| Addie informed us after her first game that she didn't want us to cheer for her or smile. It's embarrassing. Really? Already? |
 |
| Addie's coach puts on a happy face and positive attitude for these sweetly passive girls. She's a die hard soccer player. The girls on the team, unfortunately, are not. They put up a good effort, but 20 to 0 is a hard come back. |

| This is classic first grade soccer. The ball gets thrown in and the team stands around to see where it rolls. |

Haha... this post made me laugh so hard especially the part where first graders wait to see where the ball rolls! Looks like fun. And there better not be any beatings for our sweet nieces and nephews :)
Maybe Dad won't get the coaching job for a while. Addie says, "Dad, don't yell. It embarrasses me."
Ha Ha!! Ya gotta love soccer season with the kids.
Love watching young kids play soccer. Yours are especially cute! I can't believe how big they're getting!
