What we've been up to this week...

No matter what the weather is like, the calendar has deemed that it is Spring and thus Spring Soccer has started. This was Madison's 3rd practice this week. I picked her and Holyn up... they were like little popsicles. Practicing for 1 & 1/2 hours in a 25 degree wind chill with rain, sleet and snow...is hard on your hands and feet. I would say they are pretty dedicated soccer players wouldn't you? Actually, it's probably more accurate to say we have a die-hard coach.
Quinn has been busy playing hand-baseball (a wildly popular made-up indoor version for our living room & kitchen) with Nate, computer games and playing outside (except today!). He also has been busy at school while taking daily swimming lessons with his 3rd grade class at the high school. Those last for 2 weeks. He wore a crisp white shirt, tie and suit pants for his school pictures this week. The "presidential candidate" look.
I've spent my evenings busy shuttling Madison around to practices and working on Little League things. Cocoa, Quinn and I have enjoyed some long evening walks with much better weather (except today!). Tony has been busy working (of course).
What have you been up to?

Tell Madison that I admire her for getting out there in this weather! I got groceries last night and it was COLD! Do you have a harness for Cocoa or just a collar? Harnesses work really well as the dog doesn't pull as much.
