***UPDATE: Google changed its blogging platform and I notice that last week's blog did not properly show videos in mobile format. I have fixed that now so if you checked the blog last week and noticed there were missing videos, those are now available***
I figured out how to make a time lapse of star trails
Henry thinks he is a big kid
On our walk last Sunday Henry got behing this fence and thought it was so funny
Trying to learn at home (hopefully this week they will change to 5 days a week in school like the CDA school district just approved)
I love this lighting and I love this little monkey
Mason started pre-school this week
He is doing it with his best friend (who he also occasionally refers to as "my girl," which is so adorable)
They made some cool name bracelets
And worked on writing their names
Henry had to show them how it is done
I like this costume he came up with
On Friday night Nixon had a friend over for a boys movie night
Lyza and I went to the church to practice volleyball (not pictured because we were having too much fun) and Kim went through metamorphosis
On Kim's Saturday morning run there was lots of fog/mist over the river (you can kind of see it here)
Saturday morning was really nice because instead of the kids waking up and stuffing their faces with food, Lyza read to Mason for a long time
Mason had another soccer practice yesterday and his form was on point
He is really cute out there in uniform
He also had team pictures, which we forgot about (although we knew Nixon had them later so luckily we had the portrait lens packed with us
Be careful if you ask him to look at the camera and smile
Here he is with his team (at least one person is missing)
Pictures took forever (because one of the two cameras wasn't working) so Mason's game ended out being only a few minutes (lame)
He still enjoyed himself. He was constantly giving me the thumbs up
Here he is chasing the pack
Nixon also had pictures and we were prepared (matching clothes that fit and combed hair)
He looks like a model!
Here is his team (I think they were all actually there)
Nixon's hands were in his pocket more than I liked
He is eying that ball the other team is about to kick in
Michael Jordan was well known for sticking out his tongue when he was concentrating (photo source)
Nixon had a little bit of the same going on
After he ate a whole granola bar during his rest he went back on the field and had a cramp he had to deal with. At that same time he got the ball and had a good chance to score but missed by just a little bit. He played well (especially defensively) and had a good game.
Nixon also got to channel his inner Karate Kid and break a board with his foot
Henry was really silly last night before bed
We hope you have a great week!
