Our Soccer Pro

This is Bronson's first season playing soccer, look how cute he looks in his uniform.  His team name is the Great White Sharks.  

Yesterday he had his second game and he scored two goals for his team.  Amazing!! 

I couldn't be more proud of my little man.  

Of course we had to celebrate with a snow cone.  

First day of Kindergarten

Being home with this sweet girl for the last five years was such a blessing and I am so thankful for that time with her.  But sending her off to school was one of the hardest things I had to do.  Knowing that our lazy mornings, free days, staying in our pajamas until noon and knowing what she is doing every minute has ended was very difficult for me to accept.  But now we are in the second week of school and she is LOVING it.  Her teacher is absolutely amazing and we couldn't have picked a better school.  This morning Ms.R told me how sweet Isabelle is and how every time she looks at her she always has the biggest smile on her face.  This makes me proud!  Even though I am sad that I don't get to be with her 24 hours in a day, I am so excited to see her flourish in school.

These two melt my heart...

Preschool

I finally did it!  The kids are in preschool.  After touring a countless number of preschools then Isabelle not wanting to go, and then me questioning the whole thing.  It took a lot of thought and TJ telling me that he wants them to go to finally do it.  So we are going in the third week and it went better then I could have ever imagined. Not one single tear from any of us.  It has made it so easy since they love it and the best thing is that they are in the same class. 

 

 

After their first day of school we celebrated with ice cream.  I feel like everyday I pick them up I ask a million and one questions about their day.  It is weird not being with them, but I like hearing about their time at school.  Isabelle told me she made one friend that first day, but Bronsy made a Bunch of friends.  Too cute!

Getting cute little art projects is just a bonus.

  This week they have school pictures and I was invited to their teddy bear picnic. So excited!

 

Milestone: Bike Riding

Such an exciting day!  Isabelle learned to ride her bike without training wheels.  We still need a little practice, but she did AMAZING!  I am just so proud of her! 

 

Bronson is also doing great!  We bought him a strider and he is just amazing on it.  We are so lucky that Auntie Cammie has a track in her backyard.  It is so much fun!   

This week we are going to keep practicing and maybe I can even get Bronsy riding his bike. 

 

A fun weekend...

This past weekend was the annual Bustamante Family Reunion.  This year it was in San Jose, so we decided to make a stop at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom on the way down.  The best part is Auntie Cammie, Bradley and Briella joined us.  The kids loved it! 

 Trying to find Bugs Bunny.  Isabelle said "He must have gone grocery shopping."

She makes me laugh. 

 

Bradley's 1st ride!

We were there for five hours and only got through maybe half of the park.  I guess we will have to take another trip there soon.

Isabelle was thrilled to see her cousins. 

It is so nice that we all get together once a year.  Looking forward to the next reunion. 

 

Wolfie Jr. Soccer Camp

We signed the kids up for a soccer camp at UNR.  They loved it!  I wish this program was year around.   They got a soccer ball and a cute little shirt.  My little sleepy heads had no problem waking up early to go to soccer. 

 

 

 

Lake Tahoe

We are lucky to be so close to Lake Tahoe.

  They think they are swimming.  So cute!

It's raining, it's pouring...

This was their first time playing in the rain.  They loved it!

Puppet Show



The Big 30

I can't believe Brant is 30!!  Where did this sweet little boy go?  I just love this picture!

This past weekend Nicole threw Brant a surprise party and it was so much fun.  He kind of knew something was happening for dinner, but he was shocked when the party bus showed up.  I have so many wonderful memories with my brother and I am so happy I got to celebrate with him. 

It was a fun night!

 I got to make a cute little banner for the party. 



 

TJ is the next one to turn 30, I better start planning. 

Wild Island!

We went to Wild Waters yesterday and had so much fun. The kids are at a perfect age now.  They go down the slides together and I just catch them at the bottom.  There is no more having to take one down the slide while the other is running off to do something else, that was too stressful last year.  Now we can actually relax and have a fun time.
