Biking

We have had some pretty amazing weather this last week.  It is 82 right now and the sun is shining, we almost forgot that we are in Wisconsin.

After the Girls' games, we headed out on one of the bike trails that runs by the house.  Urban and Hazel hung out in the trailer while Layla peddled along side Mom and Dad.  The leaves are all changing so the trail was really pretty and the kids enjoyed it as well.  Here are a couple pics.

Let's Play Ball!

It's that time of year again. Soccer. The girls are both playing this year and are loving it and doing so well.  Hazels age group does drills and a lot of learning the basics.  She is so funny to watch. She concentrated and moves rather slowly, almost as if she is trying to have mind power over the ball or something. And she loves to circle the cones. Today she played her first game and scored! Layla is starting to really understand the game and makes up for any lack of skill with aggression. She is always after the ball and isn't scared to get in there and steal the ball away. She has had a lot of success scoring which is always exciting. It has been a fun season to watch so far. Here are a few pics.

Walker Family Pictures

These should probably go on my Photography Blog, but it's family so it works here too right? These were taken on our beach in McCall, Idaho.

Summer

So our Summer was a lot of fun and our vacation even funner. We were gone for a little over five weeks. We drove out and went to St. George first. We went to splash pads, the lake, the farm. And we hung out with family a lot. I was lucky enough to see my friends to. The kids had a great time having sleepovers with their cousins. We also went to beaver for a few days. It was nice to escape the heat. Then we made our way slowly to Idaho, making a few day stops at families houses. We picked up Justin from the airport and went to McCall. We had a lot of nice beach days and boating. Both the girls skied this year. Justin couldn't be prouder. A boat is trying to sneak it's way into our lives a lot sooner now. Justin also did his first triathlon while we were there. He did the sprint and enjoyed it. He also learned from it and knows what to do different next time. After a couple of weeks of that, we finally made our way home. Thank you to all those that opened you homes up to us. It was so great to see everyone and we are looking forward to next year.
