Our busy week~

Last week we had an insanely busy week, but it was a lot of fun!
Here's what we did.



I got to take candid pictures for the yearbook. Bending down to take 600 pictures wasn't the best idea, but it was really fun to see the kids and all their friends. Their school is just a fun, warm place to be and learn.
Both kids had field trips to the Children's museum on back to back days and of course I went to both, because how can you only choose one child. They both had a blast! I took a break from pictures on the day Mikayla went, but I am kind of the official photographer for Zachary's class.
This is his teacher Mrs. Hunsley. He can't wait until he's taller than her. It might not be too long!


Then on Saturday the kids had their last day of soccer for this season!!!!! Plus they had the awards ceremony in the afternoon. It made for a long day, but the kids always love getting their trophys, which they get if they say their verse for the season.

Over that way Dad?? Go Mikayla!


Mikayla also went to see an opthalmologist last week at the request of the school nurse. She said her eye test came back slightly off. Mikayla insisted she could see perfectly fine. Apparently, Mikayla has inherited my poor eyesight even though she has Jeff's eye color. The eye dr. said she definitely needed glasses, so off we went to lenscrafters between soccer games and the awards ceremony.
We all can't stop staring at her she looks so adorable. What a blessing to be able to run right out and get her eyes tested and then buy glasses. I can't imagine kids who walk around not being able to see very well.

They are the perfect brown to match her hair and eyes and they have a little bit of lavender on the insides. She picked them out all by herself and I think she looks so cute and smart in them!

Thanks for stopping by to hear about our busy week!

***Edited to add that after a day of wearing her glasses Mikayla said, "Oh, I can see much better now!"
