Our Weekend in Pictures


We had an unseasonably cold weekend, and during the soccer game on Saturday it alternated between pouring rain, drizzling, and wind gusts. We played at our least favorite field ~ it is full of dips so there was standing water on the field. Everyone was quickly soaked from the thighs down. The picture below is blurry but all the white stuff by their feet is water splashing up! I was proud of everyone for persevering ~ it's pretty discouraging when the ball won't go anywhere because it's stuck in water.



Super hero play time after chores on Saturday. Face painting courtesy of our daughter. :0)


Son C has slept on a twin mattress set on a full size frame for a couple years now. We were gifted a futon mattress which perfectly fits the bottom of his bunkbed, so now he has a great big bed to sleep in!


Also this weekend we finally finished the LAST little project of our daughter's room makeover, hanging cubes on her wall for shelving above her desk. I'll post pics of the whole thing later. It took a year, but she is very pleased with the final result!


So thankful to be a mother!!




Sadly, we also had two injuries this weekend, both to upper lips. This is Little Man, showing off his fat lip. Son L also got a fat lip when he fell off his skateboard, but he requested that I not post his picture here. Little Man looks almost normal today, whereas L's lip has swollen to at least 3 times its normal size. I'm so thankful they were not hurt worse! Thank the Lord for helmets!

Loved the picture of you with your children! I didn't get one this year. Guess it's not too late though, is it?

Would love to see pics of your dd's room too! We are hoping to redo my oldest dd's room soon.

Blessings
