We've been enjoying the last couple weeks of sunny weather with soccer practices and outdoor fun with friends. We recently spent an evening with friends at their house up the hill from us. We had a bonfire and roasted hot dogs. The kids explored the property and got down and dirty. Fun times!
We also recently visited a friend and her three kids on their 50 acre property. We enjoyed a long walk across the property to the sheep farm on the other side and the kids explored puddles, got soaking wet in a small stream and even discovered a full sheep skeleton! That was definitely the highlight for Mira as she's fascinated with skeletons and bones right now. Sadly, when we returned from the walk exhausted and hungry, I discovered that my wedding ring was gone. It has fallen off my finger somewhere in the 50 acre field. We searched then and Shane and I even went back again another day with a metal detector but didn't find it. The field is a grass/sod farm so maybe one day next summer a family will have a nice new sod lawn unrolled at their house and my ring will be laying in it! Too bad they'd never know who it belonged too.... Shane and I will celebrate our 10 year anniversary next year so maybe it was time for a new ring??? Of course it will name be the same....
Spring time also means soccer and Mira has started her first season on the Silver Falls Soccer League playing in the U6 division. She enjoys the two (sometimes three) weekly practices and Saturday games. Tomorrow her game is bright and early at 8:30 am! Here is a picture of Annah playing on an old tree stump while Mira's soccer team practices in the background.
