Meet Lucy

Max and Mer played their last soccer Game today. It was the first game day in the real heat, with a game at 10 am and one at 11:30 (the car read 100 outside when we got into it but I think it was . Max's game was so fun to watch, the kids seemed to finally turn the power on and they tied at 7-7. No goals for Max but that wasn't for a lack of trying. He played his heart out. Mer's game was rough. It was so hot outside that they kept stopping the game entirely for water breaks. They won, 2-1 and Mer played great as well. Max's team had a little pizza party afterward and he got his trophy.A couple of pictures from the week... Mer has been throwing parties again. She checked out a kids party book from the library and came home and threw a Jungle party for dinner. She made sandwich kabobs, green jungle juice, and decorated with stuffed animals.

And for dessert she made "bug" jello cups. (if you're wondering, those are Chocolate chips on peach jello, yummy.)And finally... introducing "Lucy" our new little sister, compliments of Mer. She's bound and determined to get a little sister.

That has to be the funniest picture of Luke! He really does look like a pretty little girl, but of course he is really a handsome boy!

I had to do a double take to realize that was Luke - very cute and fun memories! Mer is growing up to be such a beautiful young woman already!

Does everyone in your family love Jell-O as much as Doug does?? That dessert looks interesting. Did it taste good?

I know exactly how Meredith feels! I always wanted a sister, and I so badly wanted a sister for Grace. Luke does make a pretty girl! :)

Meredith looks so old to me! You're a good mom for letting her do those parties. They look like fun!
