Celebrating Caleb's 10th Birthday in Charlotte









Every year Caleb's Birthday seems to fall on the week we are in Charlotte for Soccer Camp. We even had Gigi there to celebrate her Birthday as well. Caleb ends up having many celebrations for his Birthday, which I know isn't fair but it just works like that. We took the boys mini-golfing (yet another tradition) and it was fun. I think the boys enjoyed the car ride home the most because they were loud, giddy and very silly. Christy and I had a good laugh.

It was a fun week and we had lots of memories!! I loved watching Lauren & Lilly. Lauren loved to be mother-hen to Lilly. Lilly didn't mind much. They were either holding hands, hugging, or kissing. Lauren had fun holding baby Zack even though he was just as big as her.

Oh, and Lauren had her first haircut by Aunt Christy. Of course, when we are down we always have to go to her beauty salon. Just wait until Lauren gets older, Christy will be so busy doing all of our hair and waxing the unwanted hair. Thanks Christy for always taking care of our beauty!!

Monroe Community Water Park








Wow, what a cool place in more ways than one. It was great for the boys to cool off in the afternoon after a full morning playing soccer in the heat of the day. Lauren & Lilly and baby Zack even enjoyed it too. Thanks Mimi for the pool pass!!

The Eagles Soccer Camp Rocks!





The boys had a blast at Poppy's Eagles Soccer Camp! It is a ritual every year. I think next year they may even stay all day. They got to play games, and Eli & Josh played against each other. One of the neatest parts of the camp is learning more about Jesus!! What an awesome example these soccer players are to the children. Thanks Poppy for letting the boys attend!!










Lauren had to get in on the action too...
