Spring Forward

The week leading up to Day Light Savings I worked 117 hours so I really didn't get a chance to take any pictures of the kids.  Luckily, parents of their friends sent us photos from school happenings.  I missed their first soccer games, but they both won and played well.

        

I had off this weekend and we packed it full of activities.  We met Emily and the kids at Camp North End Friday night to hang out.  We ended up at Heist Brewery for pizza and soccer in the field.  We had brought Lu and she enjoyed four hours of walking on her leash and chilling in her backpack (with the fold out catio).  Ethan's soccer game started at 8am Saturday followed by Harper's.  Unfortunately, they play at different fields in Charlotte.  They both lost this weekend, but I was happy to see them play!  After soccer, we met some friends from Irwin at Camp North End for lunch.  Alex's friends had an anniversary party afterwards that we attended.

     

On Sunday, we met Kate, Sean and the kids for bowling in South Carolina.  It was a fun and exhausting weekend!

         

The girls at Irwin!

    

     

Apparently it was Dress Like a Book Character Day a couple weeks ago.  Good thing Alex knew about it!

   

   

   

    

We were treated to a few magic shows over the past couple weeks.

    

We have been studying Mexico in preparation for our trip.

      

Cousins at North End!

     

Harper's team is called the Tigers this year.

   

     

     

I actually don't know Ethan's team name.  He is on a different team this year and loves it.  It helps that his best friend, Ben, is on the team.

   

       

Back at Camp North End!

    

        

It was fun to celebrate Alex's friends at the Bloom and Bottle!  The kids each had two cupcakes.

       

Alex and I were so tired that we took a nap after this.  The kids played the entire time and stayed up late watching a movie.  Alex and I can't keep up.

     

We were very happy to bowl with Kate and Sean!
