Parker Controls the Ball!

It was a fun but busy Thanksgiving Weekend. We started off our Thanksgiving with the boys playing football with the Wards Elders Quorum. They had a blast. We then rushed off to Grandma and Grandpa Rowland's for a Thanksgiving lunch. We then dashed across town to the Blanchard's home (Jeff's sister) for dinner with the Judd Family. I felt like we ate all day . . .oh yeah we did. The food was amazing.

Friday we had 4 soccer games starting at 8:00am and ending at 7:30 pm. The boys did great. Parker's team won both of their games and Preston won one and tied the other ( they were playing up an age group). Saturday, we had another 4 games and that started at 8:00am and ended at 6:30 pm. Parker's team won the first game and then played the Nevada State Champions, Neusport in the semi-final. They did really good considering this team was killing everyone 10-0. The boys were nervous but played with a lot of heart. The other team had boys that looked like they were 18! They were huge and mature for their age. Our team got beat up . . one of our players ended up with a concusion and another with a knee injury. We ended being the only team to score a goal on them the whole tourney, but we lost 1-4. I have never seen Parker play so aggressively . . . he did really good! He ended up getting a yellow card but I was impressed with his efforts.

Prestons team lost 0-1 and then played a consolation game and won 3-2. He had a hat trick on the last game scoring all three goals.The boys have one more tournament for the year Whew! This weekend is the Rugrats Tournament.



On Saturday night we ended up scoring tickets to the Jonas Brothers! Parker did not want to go. I tried to tell him that there would be a lot of cute girls there . . .he decided to hangout with Dad and catch a movie. Anyway, the concert was great. Kennedy and Preston had a great time. Kennedy told me the Nick looked at her and gave her a wave. She was so excited. She was a party animal and stood up the whole concert . . .she sang and danced. This was Preston's first concert . . he did not appreciate all of the screaming girls. He had a good time though. He was a bit tired from the soccer tournament but I saw him jamming to quite a few of the songs. He even went on the floor to look for the guitar pick the nick threw into the audience. We got home from the concert at midnight . . .we were pooped! But I think we made a few memories.
