soccer and pilgrims

I think I'm still recovering from my late night with a vampire.

I was so caught up in how cold I was, where we were gonna go or better yet eat, that I didn't document our Breaking Dawn night like I did the first time we ventured out for New Moon. Mad. Pizzed.

Wanna see the 2 measly photos I captured?




the place that has stupid hours especially when you are stupid and going to a late night teenage movie



waiting for my date

It was a fun night though and I already got talked into seeing it again ONLY if we go back to Holly I mean HOBBY Lobby.

Max and Mila had Thanksgiving feasts last week before their week off.

I dragged Troy and Mila, pain and all, to see Max at his feast. When I walked in he was seated at the long table with his friends. Almost cried it was too cute. I surprised him with his fork he asked for and it took him a minute to register it was me. But then in true Maxie fashion he yelled "Mrs Lowe!!!! My Mom is here! That's my Dad next to you!!"

Yes she has met us. Yes we help in class. Yes every parent was cracking up. That's Max.

I couldn't get a shot of him with all his food because he was so excited to see us he wouldn't sit back down.





Max introducing Mila to his friends. People kept telling me she fit right in and looked like a Kinder kid already. She was taller than alot of kids there!



she was in heaven running with the kids



chillin with her Kinder homies

Then it was Sissy's turn. My neighbor Emily was sweet enough to take pics while she was there. Know I can always count on her :)




my little pilgrim girl



I'm sure Mila was the only child with a full plate. That girl can out eat all of us



the cutest pilgrims

We also had Brandon's last soccer game and end of season party. It was at On the Border and it was so much fun. We don't eat out alot but when we do we make sure we enjoy ourselves and don't hold back! It makes for a very expensive but well worth it fun night.

This soccer league here in Elk Grove is awesome. We had only been at Land Park because that's where Eric played and it was a good league too but too "clicky" for me. Not our thang. This year was alot of fun with great kids and parents.


A few of my favorite shots of Brandon from a game a few weeks ago.











He plays goalie once in a while but if it was up to Brandon he would do it each game. Our goalie is awesome but Troy likes to give Brandon a chance too for a quarter . This last game he was the most aggressive he has ever been.






even as goalie he still finds time to pick his fingers



but then boot it right away!

















The Coach's kiddos



Troy having to lie and say good things about each player. Just joking. These were a bunch of good kids.



great year with great coaches.

Brandon will definitely be back with this team next year. The Coach sort of recruited Troy on the spot for assistant coach again next year but if Max plays then no coaching for Troy. We'll see though. We're putting Mila in something next year finally so if Max wants wants soccer then soccer it is.

Go Cobras!!!
