Turtle River trips (and a little soccer too)

Thursday Matt and I took a picnic to a nearby state park and did a little hiking.   It was gorgeous, sunny and warm.


The next day I drove for Lydia's class field trip to the exact same location!  Cloudy and cold!  ha!


Lydia's teacher is just perfect for her!  I'm so thankful!

It was a really fun group to go hiking with....


and then a little science work back at the visitors center!

Soccer has been the same weather story.  We've had several nights of games when I could have sat there and watched kids play for hours!


Setting sun, running kids, it's pretty perfect. (Isaac on the right in the red jersey.)


And then we've had two Saturday mornings of games when it was just so so chilly.  argh.

Everyone is still really enjoying the soccer and I'm thankful for the girls who have done a lot of soccer watching!  Julianna and Lydia were the only two on the sidelines last week when Luke scored a goal!  Yay for big sister cheers!


And Julianna missed a lot of photo ops last week because she was gone on her school retreat!  She had a great time and it felt so good Saturday morning to all be together again!

I remember hiking in Turtle Park in the winter (March 2014, I think) with snow on the ground - would love to see it in green! Looking forward to a soccer Saturday morning soon. We love you all!!
