I don't have any fun pics right now, but wanted to give an update.  We are full swing into soccer and if we aren't an official soccer family I don't know what is.  I was lucky enough to find an old BYU soccer buddy at pre-school of all places, and she invited me to play on her indoor team.  The first two games have been painful; I'm not going to lie, but I am so looking forward to getting back into shape and doing something that I absolutely LOVE!!  Jon is playing on two indoor teams with old friends, and is coaching Tanner and Brynn's teams.  We are definitely the old people out on the field but we don't care; it's still fun.

Braden is loving his new club team and can't get enough.   When he's not with his team, he's outside practicing in the street.  Brynn is a goal-scoring crazy girl on her team, and usually gets called for an elbow to the side.  She has a lot of heart and hussle.  Tanner is hilarious to watch because he's always trying new moves out on the field, and actually pulls them off sometimes.  He's struggling a bit with listening to Jon, but hopefully will get used to it.  Jensen and Carley are good sports, as long as we have movies and sippies in the car, coloring books, and lots of snacks and treats at the games.  
Last Sat. Jon and I went on a date to the US/El Salvador game at the Real stadium.  The kids were mad that we didn't take them.  It was a world cup qualifier and was so fun!  We saw some friends there and had decent seats.  The only bad thing was getting beer thrown down at us and landing in our heads.  
So right now I don't have much to write about except for soccer.  Let's hope we don't all get burned out. NEVER!!!
