It's June Already?!

It has been a few seriously busy weeks around here since I last posted! Whew... let me see if I can do a little recap.

Mid-month, we took the kids to Florida for a week. We had a fantastic time and enjoyed just about every minute of it!

We spent a little time here...
Kennedy Space Center

here...
Cocoa Beach

and here...
Magic Kingdom

Grandma and Grandpa met us out there, which was a lot of fun! Our 5 days were spent visiting Kennedy Space Center, Cocoa Beach, Disney Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, Magic Kingdom and Epcot. We did make the mistake of taking the kids to the newer parks first (aka cool, fast rides) before hitting MK so that was kind of a bust, but it was still something the kids will never forget. I think the 3 favorites were KSC, Epcot and Hollywood Studios.

So we get back from FL and take off again a few days later to watch a lot of this...

and a lot more of it this past weekend.

Jake's soccer team played in Arvada, CO, two weekends ago. It was a huge tournament and the boys played very well, coming in 4th overall. The highlight of that weekend was going to the Colorado Rapids soccer game. Our group was one of a few that were selected to go out on the field to hold a big parachute during the pre-game ceremony. As we were standing by the gate waiting to go in, one of the coordinators came over and said that one of the teams that had paid to walk out on the field with the pros wasn't able to make it and would our boys be willing to fill in. Talk about excitement!! The boys were given full uniforms (shirt, shorts, socks) and walked the pro players out on the field and stood with them during the pre-game stuff. Jake was beyond stoked!


This past weekend, the boys played soccer in Lincoln. They won all 4 games and took 1st place. Kind of a nice change from last weekend, but it was still hard work.

Thankfully, we get a little travel break for at least a few weeks! I'm ready to relax a little now that school is out!!
