Soccer Saturdays!

Madison loves to play soccer and actually is quite good at it too. She chose to go to her soccer game early last week instead of going to the Pumpkin Patch. Is this kid for real??? I just love the picture below because it truly shows her competitive nature and how hard she plays out there. She takes this sport seriously. Right before Madison is flying through the air and headed for the goal post she kicks the ball in for a goal. Her collar bone smashed into the goal post and she was pretty upset about it. But, as soon as I told her she should rest the injury she quickly said it didn't hurt anymore and ran off to continue playing. No way did she want to sit out! This is Madison's team. They are called the Fire Dragons! Madison has had a lot of fun with her team this year because most of them go to her school and are in kindergarten with her.

Tori Jacqueline Holbrook has arrived!!!

Tori Jacqueline Holbrook arrived on Septemeber 30th at 3:12 p.m. She weighed in at 8 lbs. 3 oz and is 20 1/2 inches long. We named her after my sister Jackie who died from cancer September 8th, 2006. The labor and delivery went well and she was out in 1 1/2 pushes. I know you all wanted to know that little detail. Madison and Ashley are thrilled big sisters and are always trying to sneak peeks and hold her whenever they can. It is too cute!

This is the same little outfit that Madison and Ashley wore when they left the hospital as infants.
Very proud big sisters!
