cinco de mayo

a few weeks ago we drove down to san antonio like we do every cinco de mayo weekend for john to play in a soccer tournament with the a&m soccer alumni. this year bill, ak, carson, grammy, and grandpa joined us! we got in late on friday night i didn't sleep much since caroline would only go back to sleep on me rather than in her pack-n-play, so i shared the tiny loveseat with a squirmy baby all night! but other than that, the weekend was so fun and the guys ended up winning all 5 games to win their division.

the quote of the weekend came from a guy on another team that had been watching our guys play. he was overheard saying this to one of his teammates about our team: "have you seen that gray team play? they look old and out of shape, but they are actually really good." Lol! I guess that accurately sums up our team...

this was taken saturday morning. i don't know if it was from lack of sleep or just not paying attention, but i got us both completely dressed and ready before realizing that our outfits matched EXACTLY. we were both wearing TOMS, dark pants, gray and pink striped shirts, and jean jackets. it was so funny and i can't believe i did that without even realizing it!

supporting their daddies in their manchester united jerseys (and making a funny face)

caroline helped me put sunscreen on john between games :)

uncle bill provided a lot of entertainment!




trying to figure out what quinn is doing...

and then deciding to join him!

this was our team warming up for the final by playing a game called "boom", which just involves standing on the field and kicking it as high in the air as you can while yelling "boom!". i think after watching this, the other team (who had an actual warm-up) was pretty sure they could beat us.

here's john proving that even if the other guy is a foot taller than you,

it doesn't matter as long as you jump higher than him!

this cracks me up. here's carson giving caroline some love even though she wasn't too into it.

apparently the babies each take after their daddies!

a picture of the winning team! good job, guys!




this is what happens when daddy takes him to go potty:

congratulations to our guys! they've still got it, even if the other teams think they look old and out of shape ;)
