Great Weekend!

Although we had a very successful first week of school the boys were really looking forward to the weekend! They were so excited to find out that two of our favorite people - Tina & Emily Shelton where coming for Emily's soccer tournament and we were going to get to see them. We met them on Saturday for both of Emily's games. It was really, really hot but the games were exciting and best of all they won both!! (Here is a picture of Emily at the game [she is so pretty!] and of Christian and Joel - Caleb had made some friends at the playground and that is why he is not in the picture.) Joel was able to fill Ms. Tina in on his ENTIRE week of kindergarten and I really enjoyed spending time with my friend!!



Sunday after church we were invited out to eat with 3 other couples. We had a great time! It is nice to begin to meet people and develop friendships. The best part was they were able to give me some information for sports and birthday parties!! We were able to locate a Park that has a spray park and playground that is very near to where we are building. Soooo we will do Caleb's party at this park on Saturday, September 20th from 1:30-3:00pm and then have Joel's party at the McDonalds at 5:00pm. It will be a very busy day but EVERYONE is excited about the partys. (This a picture of Caleb playing at the park where his party will be).
The other information I received was to check out the YMCA for youth sport events. When we moved here to Frisco I asked Caleb & Joel what they would like to play and they both said flag football. Well when I researched it they do have flag football for Joel and real football for Caleb but we had missed both deadlines (as well as soccer and baseball). But the couples we where with today told me to look into the YMCA. They do have Flag Football for the fall for BOTH Caleb and Joel and I have until the end of this week to get them registered - YIPEE!! So, tomorrow we will try and go get them registered to play. They play 8 games on Saturdays from Oct. 4 - Nov. 22. To say that they are both excited is an understatement!

God has been so faithful is getting us settled and established here in Frisco. He has answered many prayers!
