Soccer!

It's been a crazy end to a crazy week, as we've wrapped up IC's first 2 1/2 days of school. I took the girls with me to the big city yesterday to take our fine arts entries to the State Fair. I had hoped I would have a drawing ready, but I just took some scrapbooking stuff instead. Afterward, the girls and I went to Target to get more equipment for IC's soccer and Miss A's dance. Then, it was off to a couple of other stores for a thing or two before eating at McDonald's, where Miss A has been begging to go for 2 weeks already. A final stop at Wal-mart (I mean, you can never NOT stop there, can you?) before heading home, just about an hour before IC walked off the bus-not bad timing, and the girls were really good, too.

Today is Saturday and IC had his first game, it was against the yellow team. Luckily, IC's youth soccer just plays here in town, against the other kids in this league, scrimmage type games and we're not really keeping score. Of course, there's always some parents who do, but they just need to get over it. These are Kindergarten and 1st graders, who are just learning how to play anyway. We had only had one practice before today, so our team is still figuring out what to do. IC had fun, though, which is the most important thing I think.
