Another Fun Week in the Life of the Daspit's

This week was a fun, yet low key week. We really didn't have too much going on other than football and soccer.

Thursday is football night at our house and we are pleased to annouce that we had another win this week! Cougars are 2-0! We are hoping for another win this week against Rogers.

Lance took my camera at the game and was our "photographer." There were a lot of "similar" pictures :).

Lance took this picture of Grayson - I thought it turned out sweet.

Friday night Allison came down to help me make a wreath for a baby shower gift. Who am I kidding - Allison made the wreath! It turned out soo cute - I will post pictures later since it is a baby shower gift, I don't want to spoil the surprise.

Grayson was Allison's big helper! The boys love to have Allison at the house!

Saturday morning was soccer for us. Lance had his first game this week. The Dynamos played so hard and gave it their all but they came up a little short, they lost by one goal. But they all had a great time! Lance was excited to have Nana and Papa there to cheer him on!

Grayson and Sawyer playing with their trains. They are so cute, unfortunately, this lasted for about 2 minutes!

Busy Week of Firsts

This week we had another busy week of firsts - Lance had his first soccer practice, Matt had his first football game and Grayson had his first day of Mothers Day Out.





Here is Grayson showing off his new back pack, complete with his name on the back. He was so proud of his back pack and was super excited about getting to go to "school!"

Tuesday night Lance had his first soccer practice and Matt had his first football game. Lance was so excited about soccer season going he decided that he would rather go to soccer practice instead of going to watch Daddy's football game. Grayson went with Nana and Grandpa to cheer on the Cougars - and they won their first game!

This year for soccer, Lance is on his buddy Carter Wayne's team, his Dad Rodney is the coach and we all are so excited to have such a fun coach and team mate! Matt is helping out with the team when he can - Lance is very

to have his Daddy be the "helper."

We are looking forward to a fun soccer

season! Go Dynamos!!

P.S. - Not sure what is up with the alignment of the text and pictures on this page.

Three Day Weekend!

We started the weekend off with no plans other than soccer practice and celebrating Matt's birthday on Saturday. But it ended up being such a fun weekend - just perfect!

Saturday we woke up and had a slow morning then headed off to soccer practice. Lance was excited that Matt was going to be there. Their team had a scrimmage and did really good. They won 6-2 - but we didn't keep score ;)

Honestly, I didn't get a chance to watch too much of the scrimmage,

Grayson was in rare form at the soccer field!

Grayson and Sawyer love to watch Thomas the Train on my phone - they are such good little buddy's!

After naps and some relaxation time, we headed to Fayetteville to celebrate Matt's birthday eating dinner at Shogun's. The boys had never been there and they loved it and had such a fun time watching the chef cook our food on the grill and trying to master using chop sticks. It was a fun evening!

They came out and sang Happy Birthday to Matt and brought him a "special" dessert. Here he is loving being sang to at the restaurant. Yes, they made him stand up while they sang to him and he LOVED it, ha ha!!

After we got home, we wrapped up the festivities with some birthday cake. Here is Matt with the boys - it is impossible to get everyone to look at the camara at the same time - errr!

Matt was itching to get to the river and do some fishing on the long weekend. Sunday he made and impromptu fishing trip - so the boys and I decided we did not want to spend the day at home doing nothing so, we loaded up and headed to Mimi and Papa's. Mimi and Papa have been missing the boys since they don't get to see them on Tuesday nights anymore since school started so they welcomed the visit.

The afternoon was perfect - the boys played in the dirt and got filthy and just loved it! Mom, Dad and I sat outside and worked on a Halloween wreath for her and we just enjoyed each others company. The boys did not fight or tattle 500 times - they just dug in the dirt and road their bikes - it was great!

Then Monday rolled around. We didn't have anything going and my friend Allison called and wanted to get together to make a Hogs football wreath and grill out. So, she headed down and off we went to the craft stores to get our supplies for our wreaths.

I must give Allison all the credit - she is just so creative and good at putting stuff like this together. While she was working on the wreaths, I made dinner. Good trade off, right :)

Here is the final project! I think it turned out super cute - perfect for Hogs football season! (I did position the football on the wreath - I have to get a little credit, LOL!)

It turned out to be a great weekend of unplanned events!

Hope everyone has a great week!
