Soccer!

This was Dallin's last soccer game. I enjoy watching soccer. It's a good thing because I have watched a lot of soccer over the years. This is the first time in about 12 years that I only had one soccer player. Dallin is a good soccer player. As you might notice, he is not the biggest player on the team but he has some great moves and he's always where he needs to be. I have often had three playing soccer at once. This is fall- me at the soccer field.










What a way to end the season! They finally beat the team they weren't sure they were ever gonna beat. Dallin contributed two goals to that score. He was so happy. His coach finally figured out how to pronounce his name by the end of the season. The office staff at the elementary school never figured it out before he left. Who knew it would be that hard? No one seems to be able to pronounce it. Poor Dallin doesn't get a lot of blog time. He's a good kid and we depend on him a lot.

If soccer doesn't say fall to you maybe this does. This is one of our backyard apple trees before I picked the apples on it. I just love to see the apples growing. Eli funny:

I was squatting down looking in the cupboard. Elijah comes up behind me and wraps his arms around my neck.

Me: Aww Elijah you're so nice. I love your hugs.

Elijah: I'm choking you.

What a sweetie.
