Bend it Like Beckham?

I'm totally getting my weekly dose of the giggles at our weekly soccer practice. These little three and four-year olds are so cute playing soccer I can hardly stand it. The things they do and say have me covering my mouth as to not condone the behavior, but it's hard not to laugh...here's just a sampling of activity from last week's practice...

- Two teammates decided to have a tea party on the sidelines, complete with juice and snacks from our snackbreak
- Little man pouted every time someone on his team made a goal because they didn't let him have the ball, he even went as far to hit one of the girls on the back because she scored (and she was on his team)
- Of course, I had my camera, so one teammate decided to have an impromtu photo session while sitting on her soccer ball and wanted to come over to me after every picture I took to see herself
- One teammate was throwing leaves into the ditch and watching them float
- Then, one little girl had to potty, which turned into three little girls having to potty, causing us to have to put the whole scrimmage on hold because we lost half of the team
Then everything stopped when a plane went over and they all pointed in the sky and screamed, "a plane, a plane"

  2. This is hilarious!!

    I was just telling my husband last night of my foray into soccer when I was in kindergarten. I much preferred defense because I'd pick dandelions and turn cartwheels when the ball was down at the other end of the field :)

    Kids sports are too cute to observe. Thanks for sharing this and for a good laugh!

Star Wars Gift Bag Tags

Two years ago, for Walker's Star Wars birthday, I created Yoda tags to attach to the gift bags for the party. Little did I know these bag tags would become so popular on Pinterest! To date, these tags have been repinned almost 500 times!!! So I thought since there's so much interest, I'd add them to my Etsy shop . So now, for just $8.00 - you can receive the file electronically and print them for yourself! I jazzed them up a bit with some sliver glitter puff paint on the light saber and some silver ribbon to attach to the dollar store bags. Print as many or as few as you want! So, if you are planning a Star Wars party, check them out ! And may the force be with you!

Baby Shower Inspiration Boards

I got all excited about the baby shower inspiration board contest over at Sippycups Are for Chardonnay , but only ended up submitting this first one on time. I managed to pull the second together this weekend just for kicks and loved the colors, so thought I'd share here. The first board is call "Nesting Instincts" and the second is "Over the Rainbow". I think I could get addicted to creating these things.
