First Soccer Game

Macey had her very first soccer game this morning. And let me tell you how impressed I was with her. She scored 6-7 of the 9 goals. She always knew which direction her team was going, which is huge at this age, (she even took the ball away from her teammate who was going the wrong way). What I was impressed with most was her hussell...she doesn't like to run; and she ran the whole time she was on the field, up and down. We are proud soccer parents. My parents were able to come, and they were just as impressed. My mom kept telling me how Macey looks so much like me, and how she even stands the way me and Joel did as kids. Macey was very happy, and already excited about next weeks game.

Kindergarten/5th Birthday

I'm finally getting around to posting pics from the 1st day of school, and Macey's birthday. Two weeks of school already over, and Macey is doing great. The teacher informed us she is Ms. Socialite of the class. She loves it and wakes up excited to go. She seems like she has matured a lot since the day she turned 5. She has been helpful around the house (without being asked!); and this is absolutely amazing to me. I will tell her I appreciate how she's such a big helper, and her response is 'well I'm 5 now'. On days that I take her to school, she gets ready quickly and has time to play on her swingset or play on the computer. When I work Vince takes her in earlier and is a bit more rushed. She is exhausted at the end of the day, and is eager when it's time to get ready for bed. She's usually passed out by 8:15.
Her birthday was great. It was fun having everyone over. She chose a Hanna Montana party.
Macey is finally playing soccer. She has just had one practice; but she loves it. She informed me after practice that her coach is sooo cute!
