I’ve had two more soccer games since the last post, I’m really starting to enjoy myself! I had an “assist” last game and even tried to get the ball from this super good six year old!

I’ve also been helping Dad on a super cool project: A SANDBOX! Mom had her doubts that it would get done, but I was on top of things! I helped stain my playset too! I’m a regular ole builder now!

So, I’ve pretty much known the states since we moved (November) and mom finally decided it would be a good idea to get a video of it… 🙂

I started soccer this weekend!  I had a super fun time during the practice, playing “bumper cars” with the ball, scoring, and meeting some new friends.  The game part was a little tougher, but, I was one of the few kids that didn’t use their hands or lay and play in the dirt, so that’s all that mattered the first time around! 🙂  A couple minutes into the game one of my teammates met someone else’s forehead and starting bleeding a lot, so needless to say I wasn’t too into playing after that.  “I don’t want any kids to get hurt if I biff into them.”  What a sweetie! 🙂

Afterwards, we went to a “Plane Pull” fundraisers at the airport.  It was super fun watching airplanes land and take off and to cheer on the teams pulling the planes.  Most fun was the BOUNCE HOUSE!  I wasn’t too keen at first, but then I was hopping all over and rushing down the slide!

We ventured to Floyd on April 6th to help my girl Lilamae celebrate turning 3!  I had a great time visiting, returning to nature, digging in the dirt, and playing soccer.  We even visited our old house, I totally gave Dad all the directions to get there, and then we saw Jessica!!  Much love to my Floyd people! 🙂

Easter was different this year without Mal, it was one of her favorite times.  The rain also kept us from doing any egg hunting at GGs, but it was nice seeing everyone nonetheless.
