The best garage sale EVER!

Our neighborhood garage sale was Saturday, June 7.  But I usually end up having it Thursday and Friday too.  I usually do better on Thursday than any other day.  And this year was no exception.  This was the best garage sale that I have ever had!  I made more on Thursday than Friday and Saturday combined.  Total, I made over $500! A friend came and brought some baby stuff (at the last minuted) and made $123.  C made $40.  I need to find more stuff to sell!  One man's junk is another man's treasure!

Sadly I have no pictures from my wonderful sale!  But I thought it was very important that you knew how much I made!  :)

Little E is a big sister!

The little E girl that I babysit as often as I can (she makes me laugh!) is now a big sister.  Her baby brother was born June 4.  He is such a cutie! I can't wait to get some snuggles from him!

WorldView Ministries annual meeting

This is the second year that Daddy has recored the sessions and WV's annual meeting.  I was not going to be able to go this year.  C was to have his last practice before his big end of the year tourney.  I didn't want him to miss that.  So Daddy took off around 3 pm.  Around 5 pm, practice got cancelled due to the potential of rain.  So C & I made a quick decision; we packed up and headed down (about an hour away) to the meeting (after eating at Popeye's; that boy and his fried chicken).  I am so glad we went!  We had such a great time!  A friend from college was there with her 4 kids.  C spent almost the entire day Friday in the pool with them!  He made some new friends and got to have a good time. I was able to sit in the meetings and really enjoyed them. The focus of this years meeting was prayer.

My view as C spent some time in the pool.

He cleans the bones!

Our new soccer club

C decided that he wants to be a one sport kid.  And he picked soccer.  Which is fine with me.  I like the one sport idea and I love soccer.  But the last team he was on (fall 2013) was not what we wanted.  Daddy helped to coach, but the main coach didn't work the boys very hard.  C didn't learn much.  So I did some research.  We found a true soccer club (Westside United FC) (side note: some of the Indy 11 players came up through this club) and signed him up to play rec with them in spring of 2014.  I really liked his coach.  The group of boys was a good group and they ended up about middle of rankings.  Funny thing, C knew 3 boys on his team which was nice.  C played goal keeper most of the season.  So much so, that we actually bought him his own gloves.  We are moving into the big leagues!  We now have him signed up for travel soccer starting end of June.  Talk about big leagues.  Whew!  There's a lot to it!  This isn't just "let's go play soccer and have fun!"  This is money and travel and tourneys and practice 3x per week and camps.  I'm excited.  I see potential in him if he just works hard.

Best Friends

C and KJB have been friends for, well a long time.

Sadly, KJB moved to Michigan sometime before Christmas.  The boys talk, face time, text--often.  They crack me up.

After the end of the school year, we were able to plan a weekend for the boys to spend together.  KJB came and spent Friday afternoon until Sunday evening with us.  Then C went with KJB to his house in MI through Tuesday afternoon.  They had a blast!  Did just about anything and everything!

Nice plus to all this, Daddy and I got to spend Sunday evening through Tuesday afternoon--just the 2 of us.  We drove up to Fort Wayne (the half way point where we were going to meet to get C back) and got to go shopping and work out together and eat out.  It was a really nice few days!
