Easter Dresses

We are going camping over the Easter weekend, so I had my girls wear their matching dresses today. They looked so beautiful! Kathryn and Reagan only stayed for Sacrament meeting, and then Mike took them home so Kathryn wouldn't share her germs. Sydney and I stayed, and I enjoyed a baby-free second and third hour!

Strep Throat

Kathryn's eye was bothering her on Thursday and she wasn't feeling great, so we thought she might have pink-eye. I made an appointment for her on Friday and took her in early in the morning. It turns out, she has STREP! Yuck. He said the eye irritation might have just been some seasonal allergies.  So, she stayed home on Friday and, sadly, missed the picnic on the moon that they were having at school. But, as evidenced by the picture below, she got some much needed rest!

Make Believe Theatre

Sydney is attending a Fun with Fables class at Make Believe Theatre. She is one of only two girls in the class, but they love the undivided attention! They are learning two plays, one about frogs, and one about The City Mouse and the Country Mouse. Sydney is the City Mouse. She gets to sing and say lines that her teacher, Caelyn helps her with.

Spring Soccer (aka Soggy Soccer)

The girls are playing soccer this spring through the city. They have
played 2 games and they have both scored! Kathryn is one of the
oldest on the team, so she feels like a leader. Sydney is just happy
to be playing with her friend Lily and gives her frequent
hugs...during the game.

The Cutest Girl...That You Ever Did See...

On Sunday, between session of General Conference, we took a walk to get some much-needed fresh air.  It was warm and windy, with temps in the 80s!  The rest of us looked pretty shabby, but I couldn't resist taking some pics of this adorable little girl!

St. Charles County Mayors' Charity Ball

On Saturday evening we attended the St. Charles County Mayors' Charity Ball.  We were invited by our friends Todd and Natalie Blakemore.  They run a not-for-profit called Unlimited Play that helps communities build accessible playgrounds.  UP is a beneficiary of the 2011 Charity Ball. 

It seems kind of gross to me to see my bare feet on that escalator.  My feet were screaming to get out of my shoes, so at the time, I didn't really care!

Soccer Girls

The girls played their first soccer game this past Saturday.  They are the Royal Blues this year.  Sydney scored a goal and Kathryn had an assist to her friend Ellie Tilton for a goal!  Their favorite part is still the snack at the end of the game, but hopefully they're learning skills and teamwork, and getting some exersize!
