Let the weekend begin! Beau and Mommy walked Lincoln to school on Friday morning, and it was fun. We met a few of our friends on the way and walked in together. It's just been the best first two weeks of Kindergarten ever!!
They stopped for a brother hug before Lincoln walked into school. (This picture should be printed and thrown in their faces each time they get into a fight!)
While Lincoln was in school on Friday, Beau joined Mommy on a stroller run, a visit at Aunt Carolyn's renovated house (our first house!), a trip to the library, a stop to pick up Sunday School curriculum at church, a super quick stop at the make-up counter and cookie store at the mall . . . whew . . . that was all before lunch!! We walked back to get Lincoln from school and had a few more errands to run before dinner at Anamia's and a movie night treat! Saturday morning (thankfully, late morning) was Lincoln's first game on the Ninjas Bowie Kindergarten team, and we were super excited!!! The boys practiced a bit, did some warm-ups, and met for a great "Team Ninjas" before the game began.
The match is divided 4 ten minute periods with 4 kids playing for each team. It was pretty hot and a lot humid this Saturday morning. The boys were not deterred and just focused on soccer!
Team Ninja Rule #1: Anytime a teammate scores, we meet in the middle for high fives! Sometimes group high fives get a little too exuberant!!!
When it's not your turn to play, you hang out under the tent and cheer on your teammates! Then boys will be boys, and we were breaking up Linc, Nick, and Preston from rolling around putting each other in a head-lock and giggling hysterically. They forgot they were supposed to be watching soccer!
Back in action on the field, and letting his teammates rest. Another goal, another high five!
Lincoln got the chance to toss the ball in to his teammates a few times, and he loved that.
Lincoln with the break away . . . he took it to the goal and missed just a few inches wide left!
We ended with a super sweaty, "Go Ninjas!" Crawford's mohawk is too funny. Jonathan, Griffin, and Cameron have super sweaty heads, and the other guys were just as sweaty. It was a hot one, but lots of fun. The official score was 11-2, and Lincoln is already asking what it takes to be undefeated like his summer indoor soccer team . . . keep playing hard!!! Super fun Ninjas game today!
After lunch and a little rest, we headed to the pool to cool off. So excited that the pool is open on the weekends this hot month of September.
We met up with Nana and Pops for dinner at Mena's then got cleaned up and watched a movie before bed. (Lincoln did sneak in a little Lego time and is almost done with his newest Lego set.) Such a great Friday and Saturday! Daddy spent a few days in Fayetteville this weekend hanging with his fraternity brothers at a little reunion they planned. They golfed and had dinner and had a fun time catching up. He bailed on the Razorback game to come home to meet us at the pool and join us for dinner. Life is so busy these days, and we are making the most of it!
