We've Got Spirit, Yes We Do

We've had some really close games and some games involving total annihilation and though we have no wins...our team spirit remains strong. The team is definitely improving and both girls are doing better each game. Annabelle has claimed the goalie title and is doing really well. She's made several great stops even the opposing coaches at last weekends game commented on her fearlessness.

Soccer Monster!

Heaven is doing equally awesome. She's most often assigned as a defender. I'm told this is for her speed (per Heaven). She's known for "Baywatching" about during about 1/2 her game time. You know, running and smiling at the crowd making no effort whatsoever to make any form of contact with the ball. She assures me she's working on focusing on the ball more. She was doing steller last weekend and then she took a ball to the face. It was back to Baywatching after that.

Gabe is also playing at GP in the U8 league. We haven't gotten to watch a full game yet, but his team is doing well we hear!!

Genius.

We still owe Annabelle 2 more AR trips so yesterday I thought I'd escape the "hurricane" madness of Pensacola and cross one off our list. We decided to give Auntie Jenny a visit in her new apartment in Mobile (AU Pharmacy Program...GO JEN!) and let her show us around for a while. We drove around campus for a bit and grabbed lunch at Hero's, which is close to her apartment. It has a very "college" feel to it, and Annabelle felt very "cool" to be out with the ladies. After lunch we headed over to the Explorium to waste away the rest of the afternoon. I love the Explorium, because they change their main exhibits our pretty regularly, so no 2 times are ever the same. Plus, it actually attempts to help the kids LEARN something while they're playing....vs just running around like mad heathens. Annabelle really liked the kid science area & the "matter" exhibit they have. Especially the soap bubble cloud maker. The poor worker re...

Fish Tale

After feeding and watering the dogs for 6 weeks, Annabelle earned herself a fish today! After much debate at Petsmart, she decided on a pink "dragon scaled" beta & a mermaid themed tank. She has named him Poseidon (we're a bit into Percy Jackson right now...for better or worse) though I personally pushed for King Tritian (I mean HELLO it's a mermaid tank!!). She could not wait to get home and get it all set up. Because we (I) underestimated how big the tank we selected is, we set it up in the girls room...as there is no where else to put it. He has lots, and lots of pink decorations...so hopefully he's not too much of a manly man fish.

Carolers

The girls Brownie troop went Christmas Caroling this weekend at University Pines Retirement Community. They were absolutely precious. Words cannot express the cuteness overload. Several local troops were there and they sang for about half an hour. The girls have been practicing their songs for weeks, and they did spectacularly. The adorable retiree's gave them rave reviews and they were stopped by several people asking them to come back next year. Could they be any cuter? When we got home, we thought it only seemed fair to get the dogs in the spirit too..... Kingsley the Great Bayleigh the Princess
