Quite possibly the best soccer picture ever



Amanda took this after the game Saturday. It's my mom's sister Debi (on the left) with Anna Marie and Mom. Aren't they all just the cutest? Anna Marie has her blue star she earned for "best effort."

(She's already earned the three stars you get for not being a very good player - "most Christlike," "best sportsmanship," and "best effort" - and it'll be interesting to see what she gets next week.)

However, she is improving - she's actually going after the ball! And KICKING the BALL! We are making progress!

Amanda and I took her to Conger Park yesterday. I got Papa John's (we don't have one down here, so it was something special) and we stayed just about an hour, because it was HOT. And sunny. And did I mention HOT? Then I took her to Wal Mart to spend the $10 that our office manager, Faye, gave her. Here's the joke from Faye's card:

What did the frog order at the drive thru?

(Wait for it, wait for it …)

FRENCH FLIES!

(She's 5. It was a big hit.)

Also - we are still not ready with the Best Birthday Party Ever pictures, so you'll have to make due with this. I have just one thing to say to y'all:



Feed The Robot.

Thanks! Poor thing, she thought she was going to get to start school next week. I had to break it to her that it would be NEXT August!
