The little fair mini book is for my grandma.. gotta get the fair photos in it, and ready to give to her next weekend!

On the soccer front! Amanda is doing GREAT! today they won their first game! YIPPPEEE! and BIG NEWS... she scored her FIRST GOAL! I was so DARN excited! So was she!! Guess who DID NOT have her camera! SIGH! I will get one next time!! :)
All the girls did GREAT.. they looked like little pros! (Ok I could be biased! LOL!!) but all their stuff they did in practice was there today, it was FUN to watch!!!!

We took a little trip for the nite/day to Leavenworth for one last FLING before school starts!.. I LOVE it there.. Such a cute town...We had alot of fun... went swimming in the heated pool! NOW when they say heated they mean HEATED... it was probably 85 in there.. not like a HEATED pool that is 70! LOL! it was like bath water! We played Mini Golf, ATE! :) shopped, of course we went to Kris Kringle my FAVORITE store... I got a Halloween decoration, and a cute new house for our xmas village! Then more shopping! Stop in for fudge! :) Then on the road home! We stopped at the Deception Falls... that is one AMAZING waterfall! (and I just realized that I didnt share a photo! next time! :) )
Here are a few shots from Leavenworth!



Fair time!! We had so much FUN at the fair! We got their at 11am! and left about 6pm! PHEW!!! It was a fun full day!! WE all got bands to ride unlimited rides! We ATE! Watched some pig races!! (that was EXCITING! LOL!) went in the barns! (JOY! LOL!) Rode more rides, Justin and Steve went scuba diving!! They had a BLAST! It was a free 15 minute class! Amanda and I watched she had fun SQUIRTING everyone! An instructor showed her how to do that! She loved it!!! and then Amanda decided she wanted to get lassoed!! LOL! The cowboy didnt catch her! :) Out to Mexican for dinner then home!! and bed.. I was BEAT! LOL!!!
