almost autumn

if you really tried, you could feel a touch of autumn in the air this morning at big sister's game.  and our team finally won their first game!

however, at little sister's first soccer game this afternoon (3pm) - we were back to the summer heat.  it was only 90 degrees, but i felt like i was baking under the umbrella - so i can just imagine how the players felt.  but little sister did not let the heat slow her down.  she played awesome, scoring 2 goals in the first quarter!  she sat out for the 2nd quarter, played goalie for the 3rd, and played forward again for the last quarter.  she scored another goal in the 4th, leading her team to victory, 4-3.  i even heard a dad from the opposing team tell his daughter to "watch out for #7.  she's quick."  yes, they were talking about MY #7, little sister!  that was quite a proud moment!

 and as if today was not filled enough, big sister got invited to a KidZone party at the rec center.  it was BFF night, so she and her BFF kennedi went as twins.  they had a blast running around, dancing, singing, eating pizza & candy, and just generally being unsupervised (but safe).  i have a feeling we are just starting with this stage of her tween years...
