this weeks happenings

I enjoy being busy, but a nice relaxing vacation doesn't sound so bad these days. I can make it to December, I can make it to December!

We have 4 regular season games left and then the season is over. Fingers crossed for playoffs. The guys have done such an amazing job with this team, it would be a true disappointment if they don't make it. They all honestly deserve to be there.

When we got home after the soccer game on Saturday I noticed our neighbors had major water running down their driveway. I asked Sebastian to go next door and tell them about their leak. I left and took the kids to a birthday party thinking all was well. Who knew that all that water was coming from our backyard. Yikes! Water had to be shut off in the house until the problem could be diagnosed. What is an entire family to do with no running water you ask? Go to the Getty's of course. Thank goodness for their casita. Sebastian always jokes about staying there since he has a key and all. Who knew the entire family would have to have a slumber party. We made a fun evening out of a bummer problem. Sunday Papa Walt fixed the pipe in a matter of minutes. All is well now. So glad we were able to have a great time in-spite of the leak. Thanks to the Getty's for being great hosts and letting us crash their weekend!

Fun weekend



We went to the Journey concert on Friday night with the Getty's and Walter's. Who says you need actual tickets to "attend" a concert. We bought VIP parking and tailgated our way through the concert. We had a great time hanging out in the parking lot, eating yummy food and listening to the music. Can't beat the price or the company. So much fun. I would totally do it again!








Green Geckos Win, 6-0! Lis scored 2 goals and played goalie half of the game. She realized there is more to playing goalie than she thought. Hope Solo makes it look so easy!


I thought Lis was a big girl. This girl makes her look tiny!
Finally got a goal on camera. Go Baby, Go!


Goal kick!

We stayed after our game to watch Sarah and Kailey play against each other (old Fire Foxes teammates). We are determined to get these girls back together!
After an 8:00 am game, watching a 9:10 am game and a 2:00 pm birthday party, by the time SDSU tailgating comes around all sometimes all you can muster is to sit in a chair (dad included).

Who needs to watch the game when you already have your free hat and your parent's iphone. All you need to do is sit and text the person you are sitting right next to!

Green Geckos WIN AGAIN!





















Geckos win again 4-0!
Go Green Geckos! It was an eventful game on Saturday. Every week you never know what you are going to get out of the girls or what kind of day they are going to have. It was a little nerve wracking before the game stated when half of the girls didn't show up to the game when they were supposed to and then seemed half asleep. After a bit they finally turned it on! Lis played hard and was determined to score and indeed she did just that. She scored 2 goals and one of them was pretty amazing. Video posted at the end of the blog. Try and ignore the crazy father/coach yelling the entire time, aka her father. :) (it was taken using the ipad so not close-up. She's #10) After the game she was super excited to talk about everything that happened and wanted to know everybody's favorite part. She's so into soccer it makes it so fun to watch. Go Baby GO!














Jakey enjoyed a Friday night date night with Ytalia. Whenever she is around Jakey shows off and tries to act silly so she will say how silly he is. I guess boys act that way from the very beginning.

Oops, video from last week's game. I'll post this week's video shortly.
