Soccer

This was our last weekend full of sports here in Arlington! This last game of soccer proved to be exciting! Conner is an amazing soccer player! I love watching him play! He has some awesome footwork! He can just dribble through the entire defense! He steals balls and is such a team player! 

 He looks cute in his soccer uniform just like his daddy did! :P
 I think these girls are going to be all over the soccer field! Who am I kidding they already are! They are usually half time entertainment as they dribble the soccer ball on the field back and forth! They have gotten pretty good themselves! I can only imagine after another year of watching K and C play, they will be bitting at the bit to get out there!
 C had a great coach this year! It was his first year coaching and he was amazing with the boys!
Another season done! We also got through this spring with one car and 4 different teams!

Blue Claws

 The Blue Claws played their last game of the season and it was exciting! The umps said it was the best playoff game in years! We played two extra innings until the other team beat us with a run!  The Avalon boys have stuck together and have had some awesome plays between the three of them!
 Patrick!!
 The girls love with Rory comes to the game! So does Kaitlyn! :0)
 I am beyond proud of this little guy who is quickly becoming not so little any more!
 Now this was a sight to behold! Kaia finally acknowledged this guy with a hug! His wife thought it was pretty funny/amazing!
 The Blue Claws had an end of season party after this last playoff game. Fun times had by all!
 Sisters had fun too!

 I love how much the girls love their big brother! He told me the other day that he loves the twins now that they are older and just so much fun!

Blessed

We are beyond blessed to be the parents to these four kids! We are challenged and amazed on a daily basis!

Ford Theater

 Yay! The day arrived. We took kids out of school and went to the Ford's Theater, FBI headquarters, and grabbed lunch and still got kids back to school before the end of the day!
 After we got home, our friends showed us a pic they took in this theater a month ago. It has become famous for the best pic of a ghost in the theater! :0) ITs a crazy picture!
 The room across the street where Lincoln died!
 I found Booth

 And thanks to this wonderful lady..........we were able to go without the twins and enjoy time with the older kids! So thankful to her!

 R and G have been the kids friends since they first started school here! Sleepovers are common place! Fun times for everyone!

Memorial Weekend

 What a great relaxing time we had over the Memorial weekend! So much to be thankful for.......we thank all those who lost their lives for our freedom and their loved ones!
 We spent Saturday at the pool! We had a nice lunch of Michigan's famous hotdogs provided to us by the S family! We bbq every night over the weekend and were joined by many friends. Our friends brought out their shaved ice machine! The girls had two cups full and devoured them.

 Corryn has been very much into snuggling and being held. She will get mad enad yell hold me, hold me! The big kids oblige!
 We went on a very muddy hike for 2 hours as the girls explored and hiked almost the entire way! They were troopers!
 These vines are so awesome to use as swings!




 The girls LOVE the water!

 Kaitlyn has a great group of friends. Two different families brought her to the pool club two different days! She is one blessed girl!
 5th graders
 We love to bbq with friends! What a great group of friends God has blessed us with while we have been living in the Avalon!! Great memories!
