Soccer Season

Well Soccer Season is on us again, and this year both Carter and Dylan are playing, and Zach is coaching, (Dylan's Team) This seems to make life much busier. 3 Days a week we are now spending over at the soccer field. Kendall is loving the time outside and does really well at practices and the games. Dylan just loves soccer. If he isn't running its because he has fallen down from running too fast. I couldn't stop laughing at his first game on Saturday. He was so cute! Carter is getting better. He is not as enthusiastic about soccer as Dylan, but does well, Zach played with him last night in the back yard and I think he is just timid about the other kids pushing to get the ball.

Things are settling down here, Zach is in his permanent position at work, I am working on settling into my new calling as Stake YW Secretary. I didn't realize how much work it was going to be, But it is also going to be so much fun. I got to go to my first youth dance last Saturday night and had a blast. Towards the end we were all (the stake yw presidency) out there dancing. It was a lot of fun to start getting to know the people I will be working with.

Our most exciting news is that we are coming to Tucson in November for the Tour de Tucson and Thanksgiving. We are so excited to come back and see all of our friends again. I am being forced to focus on my riding as I sprained my hip running 2 weeks ago. We (my running partner and I) got chased by a pack (2) of dogs, and I finally went to the Dr. and got x-rays done. No running for 4 weeks maybe more, but he did say that I could ride my bike and keep my endurance up so El Tour here I come!!

Kendall is growing up so fast. She will be 1 in 3 weeks. I can hardly believe it! Anyways that's life here in KC. Love and Miss you all
