Homecoming 2014

This weekend we enjoyed homecoming festivities at Kamryn's high school.  The week brought dress up days and fun activities to participate in.  Friday night was the big football game against our biggest rival.  We ended up breaking the 12 year losing streak against this school and after an exciting game, pulled out a win!  Saturday evening held the most excitement, being the night of the dance.  We met some friends for pictures, then the group went for dinner before heading over to school.  The group looked great and we are thankful for these friends.  I enjoyed helping pick out Kam's dress and doing hair and makeup.  Fun times!

Back to Playing Soccer

After a month break, Troy is back to playing soccer.  He's on a team that plays year-round.  He was anxious to get back on the "pitch" after watching so many "World Cup" games.  We traveled to a tournament in San Clemente, which is a beautiful part of the world.  Unfortunately, Troy didn't have his best games.  He overdid it a bit and didn't feel his best.  Still fun watching the boys play.  Looking forward to watching this team grow together and play some exciting soccer!

Road Trip-Part3

We eventually made it to Michigan where we were greeted by Katie and Grandparents.  It was great to be in land that is very green again. :)  We enjoyed cooler weather and late-evening sunshine.  We played basketball, saw a lot of family, met up with friends, toured Calvin, met Katie's co-workers, saw Katie's house, ate at some favorite places, and visited the beach on a windy day.  We enjoyed a long week there and left feeling refreshed and ready to make the long trek home.  We're thankful for all the family who hosted us.  It was a great time away and we are thankful for safe travel and electronics for children! (Note:  I need to add my phone pics yet.)
