Dinner with My Bestie


Last week I was able to meet up with my best friend, Amy, who now lives in Minnesota.  It was great getting to see her because we don't get to see each other that often, since we both live in different states.  She was in Chattanooga visiting her parents, so we were able to meet halfway in Calhoun for dinner.

She has two sweet boys, Colton who is 5 and Chase who will be 3 in October. 
After dinner, the boys raced each other up and down the sidewalk. 
I think this is a great picture of the kids, considering their ages (Colton 5, Parker almost 4, Chase almost 3 and Hannah almost 9 months)! 
Colton and Chase got Parker an early birthday present, and Colton helped Parker open his gift.  They got  him a light up soccer ball, play-doh, some pop-its and a nice dress shirt. 
Colton and Parker giving hugs before leaving - so sweet! 
When we got home, the kids were not tired at all - hah!  So, we played with the light up soccer ball from Colton and Chase and we all had lots of fun! 
It was very fitting that the boys got Parker a light up soccer ball because I have signed up Parker to play in a fall soccer league at the YMCA starting in a couple of weeks.  So, we have been practicing in the backyard every night. 
Parker seems to be catching on about kicking the ball more than once.  However, sometimes he'll just bend over and push the ball with his hands.  So, Brad and I anticipate lots of laughs and good times watching him play soccer this fall - hah! 
Our sweet kiddos after a fun night of playing soccer, baseball and softball in the backyard!
Parker and Hannah watching Dad mow the front yard from Parker's bedroom window - hah!  It was pretty funny!
