Not so friendly

This weekend the boys were supposed to have their last soccer tournament with the Cherikee Strikers at the NASA Friendly Cup.  However, the rain had other ideas. Since the fields we were supposed to play on apparently flood a good bit, the whole tournament was cancelled from the wet stuff we've had over the past 24 hours. The boys were super bummed so we decided to go ahead and tell them that their Cherokee Strikers won't be together next season, either. (We're not sure if this was a good idea or not, but it seemed like the best time to tell them!) The YMCA has decided they don't want to financially support the academy team and want to focus on Rec leagues. Whatever! 
A couple of the other kids on the team thought it would be a good idea to get together at a jumpy house so we joined them. The boys were happy to be with some of their teammates, it's like they didn't even get any bad news all day! Onward!!

Update

The boy McLure's have been hogging my iPad so it's been difficult to update our goings-on in the recent weeks. I'll keep it snappy. 
We went to a movie outside downtown Woodstock and met up with a whole host of different people. Our Italian friends, Cam and Nicole, Julie and her oldest boys and the boys good friend Kayla hat they play with at school. I didn't snap too many pics because they were all running around everywhere. 
Reed we to a birthday party for a classmate so Nolan and I went on a date. We went to the movie, played putt-putt and out to dinner. He doesn't like the fact that I called it a 'date' and gets rather mad at me when I refer to it as such. For now, we shall call it an outing. 



The boys had field day at their school last week and it was utter and complete managed chaos. They were running here and there and everywhere and it was hard to keep up with both but I did manage to see them in a few different events. 




No matter what fun they have away from the house, they still love to play with their buddy Grant...especially if it involves running around in the rain. 



Soccer is almost over but they are still hittin he grass hard by making their own obstacle courses to dribble through and work on their footwork. 



Last but not least, to bring us to today, we ended the weekend at the Roswell bike races downtown with a few family members. Ride on!
