Soccer Player

Dreyton finally started soccer! He has been waiting since last summer to play, but he wasn't old enough. He was so excited to be out on the field, I don't think he stopped smiling the whole game! After we have had a couple of games though, I am guessing that he is going to like football a little better. Instead of concentrating on kicking the ball, he concentrates on tackling kids to the ground. Not good. Next year he'll be old enough to play football, so I guess we'll have a year of lectures on "You need to kick the ball, not tackle the kids".



Jace wants to do everything his big brother does and was so bummed that he couldn't play soccer and have a soccer uniform. So, before a game I let him wear Dreyton's extra soccer socks, which Jace insisted on wearing with sandels. I still thought he looked cute though. He runs along the sidelines kicking his own ball and cheering for himself.

Team Work

Dustin has been trying to teach Dreyton how to ride a two-wheeler while me and Jace cheered him on. It was taking quite a while and Jace must have got sick of it cuz he said "I go help", and ran off to go give a little extra help. He ended up behind Dustin pushing them both along for the rest of the time, and loving it.



We went to the Bees game the other day and it was sooooo fun!! The boys loved it!
I had to add this picture on here. Jace couldn't quite figure out what was going on at first and while me and Dreyton were screaming "Go Bees! Go Bees!", he started swatting his big hand around at invisible things in the air and yelling "Yah, Go away Bees! Go away Bees!"
Bumble, the mascot come over and signed Jaces hand. Jace was in so much shock he didn't know what to do or what to think. He still has the shocked look on his face. He couldn't stop staring at his hand. After a minute he kept mumbling "Bee colored on me."
It was so funny, Bumble didn't know it, but he was smashing Dreyton's head against the pole in this picture. Dreyton was so excited to see him that he didn't even care. After he escaped the pole, he got knocked over by Bumbles big butt
Finally! A picture with Bumble! That was the highlight of Dreyton's night!

Gross, I know

This picture is gross, I know. I hate looking at peoples feet, but I still had to post it. This is another one of Dustin's basketball injuries. First a broken hand and now a sprained ankle. His "cankle" grew to about the size of a cantaloupe. It has been 3 weeks and it is still HUGE.

For Suz

Suz, I had to post these pictures for you. After looking at your pictures of your county fair with the elephant rides, carnival, and petting zoo, I wanted you to compare it to the wonderful Tooele county Fair. Don't be too jealous, I'm sure you wish you could trade us!

We had to get the boys' faces' painted. By the end of the day I think that most of the paint on Jaces face was either on his hands or on Dustin's shirt.

Ok, so I HAD to take this picture of the 'life-like' Spiderman. There were tons of characters walking around the place and you can tell that the county put alot of money into making them as life like as possible (that was all written with sarcasm, if you can't tell)

Anyway, the picture with Spidy and Dreyton didn't do Spidy justice, so I had to jump in a picture with them, so you could see how short Spiderman is. He was sooo tiny!! I was trying so hard not to laugh my head off in the picture.
Here is Dreyton taking his turn on the mechanical bull, that counts as a carnival ride, right??
Another life-like character. At least he was a little taller than Spidy though.
