Five on Friday

1. I love this girl!! She has brought so much love and laughter into our home! When my kids were younger they never played drums on the pots and pans. Well - on Saturday, I came up stairs and found this! She was listening to music and drumming along with it. I laughed so hard and she loved it. I also loved that she knew that in order to be a drummer, you need to wear shades!!
2. For two years, Maya had to watch while Max and Madi played soccer. Well it was finally her turn in January. For someone who never played before she is doing quite well. She loves to run and actually goes after the ball (which is so unlike our other two). She has played in 2 games and it really enjoying it. So much that she told me that she does not want to do dance - she wants to play soccer. I guess there is some Sherwood blood in her! Her favorite position is sweeper.

3. Max decided that he wants to play basketball. He is a head taller than everyone in his class and when the coach saw him, he was glad for a taller player. He is more coordinated than his mom, and has made at least one basket in every game. No pictures of this - but hopefully next week. So now our Saturdays consist of soccer and basketball until March and I would not have it any other way!

4, Madi - she is playing the violin, piano, has activity days girls and just got done doing student council. So, now she is looking at doing a sport during the school year too. I think that she is leaning toward swimming.

5. Bryant - he has a new shift at work. It started right after Christmas. He now works Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Which means he has Fridays off!!!!! We are able to have a date night, he can go to the kids games (if they are before 12) on Saturdays and he is able to spend more time with us!

Next week, I will put pcitures of Christmas (which was a BLAST), december and November!
