You go ~ Hunter

Image
Today Tori and I ran up to Simplot to watch Hunter play soccer. It was really fun to watch the younger kids play again. Hunter is #2 in Black. Look at the size of this boy compared to Hunter. Somebody check his birth certificate. I love the look on his face...........

Easy Soccer Week

Image
It was a easy week for Soccer. We only had one game. We played Vallivue and won 9-0. Nothing very exciting happened. We start next week re-playing the 4 teams that we played in the beginning, this time the score counts for the district standings. We play Borah at home (Willow Lane) at 6:00pm. Come out and watch Tori and Justine play each other.

Homecoming

Boise High's Homecoming dance was tonight. Tori's date flaked out on her this week (which is another story in it's self, which I'll tell as soon as I know the ending) too late to try to find another one, but she decided to go any way. Good for her..... She went with her friend Kristin and her boyfriend Davis. Kristin and Tori got ready at our house. I made dinner for the three of them, then took pictures. She looked so cute. I just can't believe that this is her last year of school. Hopefully she has lots of fun tonight.

Walk or Eat ????

Image
Ummmmm....... WALK (in the pouring rain, oh, and lightening) or go to BREAKFAST.. Hum let me think..... I think this is a no brainer..... Salena, Shawna, Sharlene, Jessie, Tori and I were all signed up, dressed up umbrella'd up and ready to walk in the Women's Fitness Celebration today. But the weather didn't want to cooperate. It was a down pour but worst than the rain was the lightening strikes. We met a McU's, but it took us about 5 minutes to decide to skip the walk and go straight to breakfast. Here we are recovering from our strenuous walk................

School Rivalry

Image
This week we played Rocky Mountain on Monday. This is the new high school in Meridian. It was a pretty easy game. We were up 5-0 at half time and end up winning 6-2. Tori played 3/4 of the game. It did get to be a very physical game and one of our girls, got taken out. She is probably out for the rest of the season with a knee injury. T's comment about this next picture is "Dang, my hair looks so good, I should have been sitting on the bench". This has been a joke around our house this fall. The coach is very hard to predict, so she has been expecting to spend a lot of time on the bench. So she says, "If I'm going to be sitting on the bench, I'm going to be lookin' good"...... Our game on Thursday was against our biggest rivalry school --- Timberline.... This is another one of those teams that has a lot of the girls from the club team, so it gets to be pretty personal. They scored first on a marginal call. Our Keeper Hannah had the ball but the line

Weekly Soccer Update

Image
Here is this weeks soccer update. On Monday we played Meridian at home. Unfortunately for Meridian the new high school took most of their good players. We had a easy win of 6-2. On Wednesday we played Mtn. View. This wasn't as easy but we were able to pull off a win 4-2. Potty break time They asked me to take pictures and put together the slide show for the banquet at the end of the season. Since then I've been very focused on taking all the girls which has caused me to not take as many pictures my own daughter. Here are some action pictures that I took of the other girls. Just wanted to share them. I love to take pictures and could use the practice, so if anyone wants me to come take pictures for them just let me know. I would love to.

Goofy Dog

Image
Our dog Mia is such a goofy dog. I took her outside to do her thing. While we were out, Tori and Dana was taking the golf clubs out of Tori's trunk and getting ready to put in the tent for her camping trip tomorrow with the Soccer team. Mia decided that she wanted to go for a ride, so she jumped into the trunk. It took some convincing and some pulling to get her to get out. She tried really hard to get Tori to take her for a ride.

Last weeks Soccer games

Image
On Tuesday we played Centennial and ended up losing 3-2. It was a tough game, but we didn't play as good as we could have. On Wednesday we played Eagle and ending 0-0 tie. We played much better but still struggled with the turf. Tori had a very good game. At the end of each game the coach gives out 3 stars and Tori got the #1 star for her tough defense. He said she played a perfect games. I have a really hard time with close games because I get spectating and forget to take pictures. Didn't get any pictures of Tori playing. There was an injury on the field so they all came over for a water break. This week we have Meridian and Mtn View on Monday and Wednesday.

New addition to our household

Image
Labor Day weekend was verrrry busy. Dana and I went out shopping for a new Car. After spending all day on Saturday we drove away in our new '08 Hyundai Elantra. It is smaller than the Concorde and very fun to drive. I'm looking foward to the gas savings.

Win over Capital

Image
Boise beats Captial 2-1. Capital's goal was on PK. Boise didn't really play as well as they could so there is room for improvement. Here are a few pictures of Tori. The girl Tori is going up against in this picture is Nicole Jorgensen, she played on Tori's team when she was on Les Bois's team. She is a good friend of Tori's. We play Centennial on Tuesday.
