Saturday

Saturday mornings are always the best. Greg lets me sleep in! By the time I wake up he has already had a pot of coffee and breakfast is started. The girls are watching cartoons and Dad is fired up in the kitchen. This Saturday we all got up early since Emily had soccer games. It was a nice cool, fall morning and Greg was enjoying his coffee on the back porch. Emily and Gretchen decided they wanted to be like Dad. He fixed them both coffee cups of chocolate milk, bundled them up in their robes and house shoes, and they enjoyed a Colorado like morning on the back porch. (Natalie was still sound asleep in her bed.)

After breakfast it was time for some Stinger Soccer! Emily plays soccer in a Catholic soccer league through the school. This is the first year she and most of the kids on her team have played soccer. We have lots of heart and try really hard but haven't won many games. Emily loves soccer!! She scored two goals in her second game and was very excited. Today is her best friend Hanna's birthday and her team played right after ours. They came early to watch Emily play so we got to wish Hanna a Happy Birthday!! We love you Hanna Cat!!
