Sunflowers

We are surrounded by sunflowers. And I mean fields and fields of them.








They are amazing!

1 Month Old

Danny is one month old today. It's hard to believe that a month has gone by already.



What a rough life:

Playdates with friends

Even though it was such a rainy day today, we had a great time when Willow, Joey, Matthew and Jenn came up for a playdate.


Natalie and Joey had a great time playing the Wii:




And on Wednesday we went over for a playdate with Avery and Emma. Alex and Amanda recently bought a house just a few minutes away. The kids were riding so fast, it was hard to get good pictures.


Poor Emma took a fall last week and has a cast on her arm. Doesn't really slow her down though, she was still playing at 100%.

Go Ravens!

Yes, I am rooting for the NFL team, but this morning was all about the Ravens soccer clinic team. We were ready to take on our very first opponent ... the Sharks ... well, until they didn't show up. Apparently some confusion about the schedule and games on Labor Day weekend. So we scrimmaged each other. And then we played against some of the older kids who were there to support their younger siblings. It was a good chance for the kids to get in some practice of what a real game will feel like.
