what a week!

To say this last week has been busy would be an understatement! It all started Wednesday when Brinley attended her first day of dance. She started ballet and tap and absolutely loves it. She has been twirling and shuffle/ball/change around the house all week!

Thursday, Brinley also started soccer at the YMCA. It is more of a class where they learn the skills and then play a game at the end of the 8 weeks. Although Jason was ready to put her in soccer with the city, I was not ready to give up 1 day a week of practice and then Saturday games just yet :) She was really good at ball control, but I guess she should be since Jason has had her kicking a ball since she was 11 months old!!!! She was one of the few kids who could kick the ball into the goal with just one kick! She even got the celebration down....too much soccer watching with daddy!

Friday, my mom and us drove to Katy to meet the newest cousin of our family, Will. His mommy, Allison, is my cousin and we are only 1 month apart in age so it will be fun to watch Will and Clayton grow up together.

Saturday was pure and utter chaos! We had 3 birthday parties to attend! Two of them were at the same place, Jump N Jungle! Needless to say we were completely exhausted by the end of the evening. With no nap and 4 hours of jumping, by the end of the third party Brinley said no to cake and wanted to go home and go to bed!

no pictures from party number 3......to worn out :)


Sunday, we headed to Jason's parents house to visit with his brother, Bill, who was in town one night from Switzerland. His parents had planned a birthday party in his honor and rented a.........you guessed it moonwalk!!! Although I think the big boys enjoyed it more than Brinley and Hannah!

Needless to say we are being completely lazy today with no plans whatsoever! I think we will need to a week to recover from our week!
