Roll it Down a Hill

It was so hard getting the girls up this morning for the soccer game. We had to leave by 8, so that meant getting 3 kids dressed, fed, and making sure we had all the game gear. Ty worked, so he ended up missing Izzy's first game. Fortunately she still had a good support group there for her. My parents, sister, and Ty's mom showed up.

As we walked down to the field Izzy squealed with delight when she saw the kids in all their different colored uniforms. "Now THIS is real soccer!" she said with quite a sparkle in her eye. She immediately ran up to a fellow Unicorn and they excitedly talked about how excited they were. Too redundant?

She may look cute here, but she's actually keeping an eye on her sister in hopes that she could steal her ball
and roll it down a hill.

This was just funny to me. HQ walking down the middle of the soccer field just not caring.
You know, like a honey badger. 

The Blue Pixies were much more aggressive than The Pink Unicorns were. I believe the score was 2 to 873453874. But all the kids seemed to have a great time anyway.

Epic soccering going on here!

Still pickin' wedgies... 
Locke loving being in Grandma Orpi's arms!

Enjoying the game from the best seat in the house!

After game cheer!
 After her game, Izzy was picked up by one of her best friends to head to a big ol' fancy picnic complete with water slides! Ty and I asked my parents if they wouldn't mind watching the other two so we could go out on a much needed date. Ty was starting to feel sick, but we were not going to pass up some complete child freedom!

We went to Subway (hello $2 deal!) for some romantic lunchage and then loitered around one of the seasonal costume stores. It was fun to just be able to walk around and hold hands without having to quickly let go because some little person dropped something or is about to run out in the street.

Ty got a little worse and my mother agreed to keep the girls overnight to let us just rest. We took our date home and drew each other "family pictures". Totally Ty's idea. He's a lot better at drawing than I am. I am not posting mine... it stunk :)

From my awesome husband. Alright! I'm a sucker for cute stuff.. sheesh!
Can you guess who the ghosts are? :)
Time to join Ty in sleeping. Being sick is overrated.
