The Next Mia Hamm?!

Could Gracyn be the next Mia Hamm?!!! I doubt it...but she looks pretty cute in her soccer uniform!!!!

Soccer seemed to be a little confusing to Gracyn at first. After all, we've always told her to share. So she couldn't understand why no one was sharing the ball with her.  She had a blast once she realized she had to take the ball away from the other girls! Her first game consisted of a lot of tears because she didn't score a goal. We had a long talk about the game, having fun, and just trying your hardest. The next game she scored 8 goals!!!! She was so proud of herself!

Little Explorers!

Nothing beats a random trip! Clint and I decided to get out of the house for the day, but what do you do in January?! We decided to make a day trip up to Springfield, MO to the kids museum. I love Lambert's Café so we decided we would go to the museum then dinner. On our way there we kept seeing signs for Fantastic Caverns. I looked it up online and we decided to do that instead! We had a blast!!!! It was ride in tour so we got to sit back and enjoy the ride thru the cave.

We then went to dinner at Lambets. While we were there, I mentioned how it would be fun if we had packed bags and just gotten a hotel. Clint said, "Well, we still can!" So we decided to make it a weekend trip! Clint decided since we were so close to Branson we should drive over there and get a hotel...so we did! We stopped at Wal-Mart and got pj's and toiletries then stopped at the outlet mall and bought clothes for the next day. We laughed so hard as we walked into the hotel with our "luggage."

The next day we decided to go to the Butterfly Palace. Gracyn loved the butterflies! We had such a great trip...I think the randomness of it made it that much better!!!!
