Easter 2009

We had a great Easter this year! Dying eggs, a couple Easter egg hunts and more candy than we know what to do with. We went to Madison on Saturday to spend the day with Brian's family and the great-grandparents and then brunch on Sunday with Emily's family. The weather was gorgeous and fun was had by all!

Getting a picture of these three together is no small task!

Love your"bonnet" Molly!

I couldn't resist the matching shirts!

Getting just the right shade of blue

Soccer star!

So, it begins...

The Saturdays spent on some freezing cold or scorching hot soccer field, sitting in my folding chair, cheering my lungs out for my little soccer star. I have officially become a "soccer mom."

That's right, Charlie started a little "Mikro" soccer league this past Saturday through Milwaukee Kickers. It brings a smile to my face because I too played soccer through the same league on a team called The Darts. My dad coached that team and I can only hope to someday coach one of Charlie's teams. However, thanks to my dad, I won't have to check out books from the library on how to coach soccer (like he did). He taught me everything I need to know. Thanks Dad!

Enjoy these pics from the first "practice." Charlie loved it and told us he scored 5 goals.

Ready to go!

Mr. serious

Swing!
