It is 110 degrees today, 43 degrees Celsius, yuck!! It's too early to be this hot already. At least it means we can swim and I look forward to doing just that a little later on today.
I don't have a lot of pictures to share but the ones above are of Athena's and my little trip to Durango, Colorado for her last soccer tournament of the season. What a beautiful little place. It was an 8 hour drive that we shared with another mom and the teams awesome goalie, I never could have made it on my own. The girls played awesome and tied for first place taking home second place medals due to the team they tied was the only team they lost to. It was pretty exciting, the girls can be pretty rough. Athena had forgot her cleats at home so we had to buy her new, expensive ones and everyone teased her all weekend that she must have played so well due to them.
A few days before we left for Durango Ted decided to break his arm in his first real hockey game. The poor guy calls me on his way to the hospital and I was already in bed. By the second time he called I thought I better check what was up. Being so sweet I left him a message on his phone and went back to bed, am I a nice wife or what?? We were worried he may have to have surgery because the bone broke in two places but in the end things were going to heal just fine on there own. The really crazy thing is that the guy he hit (hit him??) met up with Ted in the hospital emergency room with a broken arm of his own! Ted's coach can't believe it, he has never seen anything like that. Ted should be able to have the cast removed in about a month. He is the first one to break a bone in our household and hopefully the only one.
Hera and Isi are doing great. They had dance pictures the other day which required an hour of makeup and hair before I went to work. Hera even was required to wear fake eyelashes, first time I did that and actually was pretty easy. Also doing a three year olds makeup is not easy especially since she wants to be done after about five minutes. Can't wait to see how there pictures turned out. You can't imagine how bad I wish I had a chance to take a few of my own. I'll at least have another chance at the recital next month.
This is the girls last week of school already. Athena is having her birthday party next weekend since some of her friends won't be around this summer. Do you think I have anything ready yet?? Better start some lists. I have also procrastinated big time on some summer camps. Hopefully I can still get the girls in their chosen activities. Hera wants to do art and take some cooking classes, Athena wants to play guitar and Isi I want to put into swimming. We'll find out soon enough what I get done.
Chat more soon!
