fusion v stars

we enjoyed watched a 4-1 victory today for fusion on their home turf.

wisdom teeth

big sister started complaining of tooth pain a few weeks ago.  it looked like one of her wisdom teeth had cut through on one side and was causing pain.  so, we checked with her dentist and then consulted with a surgeon.....and today she got all four removed!  so that means ice cream, smoothies, and very soft foods for a few days.

the surgery only took about 30 minutes.  she was put under full anesthesia, and when she woke she was very confused as the meds wore off.  we are prepared to take great care of her and hope she has a speedy recovery.

summer job

 both big & little sister interviewed today for a summer job as swim instructors.  i had seen an announcement on facebook about it and encouraged each to apply.  they had a zoom interview together and were told that the last week of may would be a trial week to see how they liked it.  the job lasts may 24 through july 23 so it will not interfere with summer band.  i think it will be good to keep them a little busy this summer, help them work together, and give them a little extra spending money.

fusion v wildfire

 another home game today & another 5-0 victory!

time for lilies

this year's lily crop once again did not disappoint.  with the extended sub-freezing weather we had in february, i was a bit concerned if they would bloom on time.  i am loving this tradition!!

blue v red

 after rain late in the week, and a cancelled game yesterday due to wet fields, it turned out to be a beautiful day for soccer.  big sister took more photos today at little sister's soccer game.

little sister was captain.

big sister captured a fun series of pics where little sister was about to collide with the goalie.  the goalie went down and little sister hopped right over!!  

she as not happy to lose this goal!

they ended the game with a 5-0 win.  just 3 games left in the season - hope the dry weather holds out!

action-packed afternoon

a sunny, humid spring day that was only saved by the breeze & my seat in the shade.  :-)

fusion had a 2pm game on their home field and came out with a hard-fought victory.  this is the first team they played that gave them some competition, so it was fun yet a little nerve-wracking to watch.  big sister came to the game (for a nice change) and enjoyed taking over my camera.  of the ~600 pics she took, i selected some of the best to share here....
