first year COMPLETE!

I can't believe that Sweet Pea's first season of soccer is now behind us! I cannot believe that hubby's first time  coaching is now complete either. I cannot believe that my baby girl has her "very own trophy" that must be snuggled and cuddled and swaddled in a linus (and will be returned there after daddy glues it back together... poor thing). I am not even sure yet if there will be a "season two" for our budding little athlete. Right now, she is looking forward to playing baseball in the fall. No more summer sports lessons for her. Although, I am still seeing if there is going to be a preschool dance class held at the community center this summer. *whistles*


Sweet Pea definitely played her heart out today for the final game and was such a little card! I am so proud watching her... she doesn't take anything from anybody! Be it a teammate, a friend, an opponent or a stranger, if she feels that she is being wronged in some way, she stands up for herself. Now we just need to work on teaching her to stand up with words only....

In honor of Sweet Pea's final game, we took a special bike ride tonight down to a semi local park to allow her to play for a bit. We almost made it to said park last night on our daily ride but thought that it might be getting too late to allow play time and then to make it back to the house at a decent time. (And we were right... We still got back after 930!) Long bike rides are our favorite form of family time/exercise during the warmer months and getting to check out new parks/centers/trails/places makes it all the much better. Its funny... at the beginning of our bike rides, we were lucky to do 15miles. And after those, we were pretty much beat. But now? Peanut and Pickle made a 38 mile ride with us (our longest yet), we mapped out a just over 40 mile ride for the summer, are planning on a 50 mile ride tomorrow AND have now found our 15 mile rides to be nothing more than a walk in the park. That is, as long as hubby is pulling Sweet Pea and Pork Chop in the trailer. I can fully admit that my short 9 mile ride pulling them both felt like a few 100 miles of work.
