Outdoor Enjoyment!

The weather here has been a wonderful thing to experience so spending time at the park and soccer field have been an enjoyable way to spend our time over the past few weeks. We have been lucky to live in an area filled with an amazing amount of great parks and outdoor recreational areas. This particular park has a great walking path around it so lately we have return there often in hopes of coaxing the baby into an on time arrival.
Soccer matches have also begun and have been very exciting to watch. Ryley is more timid than most but has found a new love and strength in being goalie. She does a great job at it and once she stops a ball she'll run like a bullet with it high above her head and launch it back onto the field. Kadyn is not more timid than most and has found a new love in shooting the ball at the goal. On Saturday she made eleven attempts and although the goalie was able to stop each one she never gave up and continued to try until the final whistle blew. With all her energy and spunk she continues most to look out for her fellow teammates, yet luckily, even with recent injuries, we have not seen a repeat of any "surprise" affection!
More than anything it's been so enjoyable for Steven and I to watch them try and experience something new and unknown.
