Soccer Camp Super Stars!

Last week the kids had soccer camp. It was GREAT! They loved it and the coaches were wonderful! They are our Soccer Super Stars!! We were so proud of them and how well they did! I have a ton of pics and videos so enjoy:)

Auntie Kelly came to camp one day. We were lucky to have a few people come see us at camp throughout the week!!

Our neighbors came too.

Grandma and Papa Young came on Saturday.

Each child received a free soccer ball on the first day of camp. The kids were supposed to come to camp with their soccer balls decorated the next day. Each day had a theme which was fun for the kids. Colin wanted tractors so Cam got to work with the permanent markers. Kaitlyn wanted flowers so I did hers.

Waiting for instructions on the 1st day. They separated the boys and girls which was good for K & C to branch out and realize they cant be together all of the time. They were a little confused at first but did really well.

Kaitlyn, Colin and Madi. Heres a cute story. One of the coaches was explaining a shark game they were going to play. He told the kids to close their eyes and think about the ocean and what you see in it. (He was trying to get them to say shark) Kaitlyn screams out, when he asks what you see, "A BODY"!!! Dont know why she said that but all of the parents thought it was pretty funny including Coach "Spikey":)

At the end of every day the kids were able to get a piece of fruit from the coaches. In order to get their fruit they had to dribble their ball out to the area of cones and find a coin under one of the cones and then dribble back to the coach. They turned in their coin for a piece of fruit. K, C and M enjoying their fruit!

Here are Kaitlyns pics......She had Coach "Spikey".

Daddy was playing a game with Kaitlyn...he was the shark trying to steal her ball!

One day was crazy hair day....Kaitlyn wanted a mohawk:)

Heres 3 videos of Kaitlyn!

Kaitlyn and Colin were hugging during a water break. It was the only time they saw each other the whole hour. So cute!!!

This was his crazy hair...he wanted a mohawk too. Not easy when he has such short hair:)

Fathers Day

Happy Fathers Day to all of the dads!! It was a low key Fathers Day which is what Cam asked for. The kids brought him their cards and present in bed. Then we had my family over for breakfast. Here is Papa with the 3 grand kids. Of course my kids had to be in their Cubs gear when they found out Q was in his:)

They always have so much fun playing!

Awww! So cute!

Enjoying a yummy breakfast outside!

My parents bought Cam and portable fire and ice pit and a golf shirt. He has wanted one for awhile!

Grandma and her grandtwins

Silly Auntie Kelly and the kiddos:)

Q was giving his mama kisses...so cute!

Grandma and Papa opening their anniversary presents from the kids. They are going to Belgium to celebrate their anniversary this summer.

Don't look at the toy mess:) The kids destroyed my house! Poor Uncle Randy! K & C were hanging on his legs. They were being dragged around the kitchen and family room! I looked at it as my kitchen floors were getting dusted:)

Happy Fathers Day to the best daddy in the whole world! You are amazing and I love you!

Weekend Pics

We had a great weekend! Friday night our friends Alivia and Mike came over with little Jake. He is so cute!! Kaitlyn and Colin love babies, especially Colin! Its so cute to see them around a little one:) Here is Jake hanging out in his swing.

Kaitlyn and Colin wanted to be helpers when he was here. They wanted to help push his swing even though it would swing on its own. We had a good time hanging out Friday night...cant wait to do it again!

Saturday morning the kids had their last day of soccer camp. I am going to put a huge blog post together but I have SO many pics and videos its going to take awhile..stay tuned! After soccer camp we packed a picnic lunch and went to the Woodstock Water Park. Some of us had TOO much fun in the sun as Cam and I were fried! The kids didnt get burned because we were putting sunscreen on them every hour. We had a great day as a family and cant wait to go back again soon.

Getting ready to head out to swim!

Enjoying a yummy lunch poolside and some fig newtons for a treat. Its K & C's new favorite treat:)

Checking out the pool!

Splashing around and having fun!

Colin was saying to Kaitlyn..."come on, lets go swim!"

The kids did a great job in the water and were going under with no problems! Colin loved this water slide!

Kaitlyn going down the boat slide.

They started jumping in to Cam but by the end they were jumping in and going under all by themselves. I think they are ready for swim lessons that are coming up in a few weeks!
