What a great soccah day! I can't wait until my DS is old enough to play. Glad Brooklynn had a good time.
Love, Love, Love the AKL print!
I got a $3.00 frame and hung it up.

It looks good.
Love the AK print! It will be perfect!
Go purple Dolphins!!!
Brooklynn will have so much fun playing soccer.
Bella will get her turn....to have her own "socca day".
I notice the little girl wearing the Auburn Tigers cheerleader outfit...I always thought Lexi would have one of those.
I'm sure you will come up with all kinds of very cool & creative ideas for the safari birthday. Can't wait to see it!
I think I need to have that Disney bag you had in the POP shopping pics! LOVE IT!
I'm glad to hear the summer trip is still on even if it's shortened.
You are gonna love 'Ohana!
Are you planning to watch the fireworks from the Poly beach after?
We are looking very forward to 'Ohana and fireworks afterward.
Do you think you'll ever find your way back to Alabama?
Soccah day looked like lots of fun! Tanya and Trent did a great job picking out the AK print. I was in
Walmart on Sunday and saw your shower curtain. It's very nice!
The shower curtain looks better in person than in pictures, doesn't it?
Isn't it fun when children first play soccer? There is no worry about winning or losing---they are just having fun. Brooklyn looks like she is having a ball! Love the uniforms!
Bella looked like she was having a great time at it too!!!
Brooklynn didn't have a clue that the other team scored about five times to our one.
Bella was enjoying being outside. I went a little ways away from the field and kicked the ball with her a little and let her run around during part of the game.
I love the pics of the "Soccah Day"!! I have fond memories of being like Bella on the sidelines, while the sibling is out on the field. At first I didn't get it either...lol. I LOVE your AKL picture...I'm saving money for some souvenirs like that, as I plan on moving south in another year, which means furnishing an apartment of my own!
Can't wait to hear more of your awesome stories!! Hope your having a magnificent Tuesday at school!!
I have to be particular about my souvenirs, so I think about them for a good while before I make a purchase. I like cheap and practical things, quite often.
As always, Love the updates! I remember when I was younger and both me and my little brother played soccah The first game is always the hardest Love the girls outfits for AK! AK isn't my favorite park, MK is, but I still love it! Killiminjaro Safari is always my first ride also at AK! I think I NEED that bag that you took a picture of at pop! I agree with you on the hats. I don't like them...but someone does! Love the AK print! When I stayed at the AKL we bought this print, and it is sitting above my bed!
Nice print. I can see them and easily picture the real deal. I'd like to be down there watching the flamingos squawking around over there near the pool.
How great that Brookie is getting involved in soccer. We live in small town MN so they don't offer soccer around here. Bummer because it looks like lots of fun! I'm glad she enjoyed herself. That's all that counts!
Soccer is a great game. Lots of kids can play at one time, since there are eleven on a regular team. It's such a great team game, too. I'm surprised you don't have soccer. I thought it had made its way everywhere by now.
Great update. Brooklyn is so cute playing soccer. Cooper has started golf and he is so adorable swinging his clubs. I am going to start him in another sport also in the fall. Love the girls' outfits. How cute! A day at AK is always wonderful. I am glad the July trip is still on. You need your summer Disney fix!!
I do need my Disney fix. I keep crunching the numbers. Trent knows a guy who is like a manager or owner or something of Monkey Joe's. I told him to ask him if there are any jobs available. I could do something like that for Disney money.
You'll have to show us a picture of your little golfer guy.
I love love love that bag! I need to stop buying handbags though, particularly ones at Disney! But this is oh so tempting!
That's pretty much how I look around any sort of sports. Actually no, Bella looks much more knowledgeable than I ever could.
Great updates!
Not a sports person, huh? We've grown up around all kinds of sports, so it is natural for us. I played volleyball, softball, and basketball, and my kids have played many sports. I know nothing about music or ballet or art or those things, so I would be the one with the puzzled look in those areas.
The sleepy picture of Bella is so sweet. The girls were really rocking those zebra shirts too. And of course AK was the perfect place to show them off. Ak is a 2 day park for us. When we're short of time it gets 1 1/2 days. I normally have to drag Dennis out of it, it's his favorite.
Thanks for sharing the soccer pictures. It brings back so many memories. All three kids played when they were little. They didn't stick with it but still had fun. I got a kick out of you paying Brooklynn to kick the ball. When Brent my oldest played flag football Dennis use to give him $1 for every flag he pulled. He was small, fast and accurate.
I'm heading back to work from lunch right now too.
I think the clock speeds up as soon as it sees us leave the classroom to go toward the cafeteria.
Yay for Brooklyn playing soccer!!!! How does she like it? My DD plays also and she (and we) love it! I think it is a great sport for little ones b/c the rules are very simple and all the kids are involved in the game the whole time. No waiting around to bat or standing in the outfield forever waiting on a ball to fly your way. I really hope Brooklyn enjoys it! It is so good for kids to get involved in sports or something active to keep them healthy, and it's great for them socially too. They learn soooo much about life and relationships that way. And I had to laugh about you bribing her with a quarter! We do the same thing! Great minds think alike!

My DD was doing just like Brooklyn, just sort of running around the perimeter of the action, not wanting to "take the ball away from her friends". I could tell that she really wanted to get in there and play hard like the other kids though, but she is pretty shy. The money bribe works like a charm though, and she has really come out of her shell

She has a jar at home labeled "*****'s Disney Fund" and that's where all her soccer money goes! Hey, whatever works, right! Keep us posted on Brooklyn's progress this season. I bet you will see a huge difference in her by the last game!
I just wanted to give Brooklynn a little incentive to get started. It gave her the motivation to at least go toward the ball. She was very happy with her quarter.
We like soccer better than baseball or softball, because you are always moving, and like you said - no standing around waiting for some action. People who love baseball love it, but we were never big baseball people.
Aww Brooklynn looks like such a big girl on the soccer field! Bella looks like a player in the making, too
I'm guessing that Bella will be a natural.
