Trophies, Trucks and Baseball

February came and went pretty quickly here at our house.  Every weekend has been filled with soccer, sleepovers, playdates, and other exciting events. 

At the end of the soccer season Seth and McKayla both had team parties and got their trophies for playing for the season. 

The night of their last games, we headed out to the monster truck show, "Monster Jam".  I must say, I enjoyed it much more than I expected to.  I even now have a new favorite monster truck, Monster Mutt.  I think it actually became a family favorite.  After the show we were able to get autographs on our tickets and racing flag from the drivers. I think this may become a new yearly tradition.

Another fun family activity this month was going to an FSU baseball game on opening weekend. 

The best part is that there is still more baseball to come.  Seth starts his second year of T-ball this month and this year Justin is the head coach of his team.  I can't even begin to explain how excited they both are about this.  I too love the start of baseball season and I think it's because it means my favorite part of the year is on it's way, SUMMER!!!

Happy March to everyone...

Basketball, Birthday, Makeovers and More

So I had to start this post with this super cute picture of Fenway.  She fell asleep like this the other night, and yes she got a hold of the remote all by herself.  How cute is that?

Daddy was giving shoulder rides when they decided they should both climb on him at the same time.  Just another typical night at the Wimberly household.

Thanks to Justin's friend at work and Seth's soccer coach we ended up with 3rd row seats to the FSU vs. Virginia basketball game.  Seth looks pretty bummed in the picture below but in his defense, they had just done some indoor fireworks that were a little scary.  He cheered up and actually watched every minute of the basketball game and thoroughly enjoyed it.  I was impressed it held his attention for the entire game.  McKayla also enjoyed the game but she was a bit distracted waiting for her friend Sophia to meet us there so they could have a sleep over that night. 

Back in December Justin and I painted the kid's rooms and just this weekend we put up some new shelves in their rooms.  Her's was pink and his was the same shade of blue, we just added the stripes.

What else has been going on this month? Well, we've had lots of soccer games and practices and I must say they have both gotten really good at it.  Seth has now scored 2 goals this season and McKayla has played goalie at the last 3 games and has only let 2 goals get past her.  We're getting excited for t-ball to start and for Justin to be a coach this year. Not to mention that means spring and warm weather are on the way and who doesn't love that!

We also celebrated a birthday this month, mine!  Justin and I celebrated my 29th birthday last week by getting takeout from Bonefish (I didn't want to go out).  I got completely spoiled by Justin and all my family and friends.  I can honestly say that with all the exciting things happening this year, I'm pretty happy to get a year older and don't mind one bit that 30 is only one year away. 

Well, that's all for now but I'll keep you posted...

Soccer Stars

January has been full of, well, soccer.  McKayla has practice on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 5:30 and Seth has practice on Wednesdays at 6:45.  Then, on Saturdays they both have games at different fields even though they practice at the same place.  His games are at Meridian park while hers are at Tom Brown Park (about 15-20 min. apart). Naturally, all of their games are either back to back or at the same exact time.  That means we never get to see an entire game for either of them and when they are with us we have to take two cars. Ugh!  Oh well, what can you do?  They both seem to love it although they both lost their first 3 games.  This past weekend McKayla's team won their first game 2-0 and Seth scored his first goal.  It was a great day for soccer!

Pictures from the first games...

That has really taken up most of our time besides work, school and planning for baby Huck.  We also got tickets to PBR (the rodeo) with Meghan, Sam, and Matt.  The kids really loved it!

Well, I know it doesn't seem like much but that was our January and it was truly much busier than it sounds!
