Lately

 We finally made it to a soccer game on time!  

I over compensated for the lack of pictures at the first game for sure!

 Ready for the big kick-off.  It was a good game - Chase managed to score a goal, so he was happy!

 High-fives.

 Team picture time.

 After soccer at Aiden's birthday party.  Taylor can't wait for Emmy to be able to play along with her.  She's getting close!  Bryce is over this afternoon and Taylor asked when can Emmy be old enough to come too!

 The birthday party gang!

 Registering for kindergarten!  Dave pointed out that as fast as these first 5 years of Chase's life has gone, we only have twice that much more time with him then he'll be 15.  I promptly told Dave to hush!  Not thinking about it.

 Grandma and Grandpa Edwards came for a visit this past weekend.  The weather was most cooperative for playing outside.

 Chase has been asking to go watch Taylor do ballet but her class is smack in the middle of his preschool day on Fridays.  Since we had company I decided it was a good day to skip school and go watch his sister.  He told her she looked pretty in her ballet outfit and did good dancing!

 And if you're skipping school then you might as well go to Chuck E. Cheese, right?

 Chase informed me that he is "too good for this little kid basketball game now."

 Taylor cashed in her tickets for some cool shades.

 Only thing better than seeing Chuck E. is hearing the ice cream truck coming when you get home.  Skipping school might have been too much fun.  He had to go on Monday even with company here - can't go crazy!

Taylor has become her own photographer these days. (ahem, Megan?) I had about 35 extra pictures on my camera from her this time.

 Cracker Barrel breakfast on Saturday, it's good to have tasty traditions.

 Throwing some pennies in the fountain.

 Chase managed to work in a bowling trip since he had to suffer and go to school on Monday!

 Not sure what everyone was looking at here?

 Bowling trip is never complete without a few minutes in the arcade.  

I love that the guns were color coordinated.

 We opened up pool season with Bryce and Emmy last week.   Taylor was excited that she and Emmy have almost matching "toodies" to wear this year.

This was a couple of weeks ago - it was the first ice cream truck siting of the season.   Unfortunately, the behavior that day was sub-par and they were left looking from the fence.  

Last night the ladies headed out to Spirited Art.  We, amazingly, all left with something we created that was suitable for hanging up!  It was a good time and I'll certainly go back, if for nothing else than the crab cake and cheeseburger sliders.

Finally, I'm not even sure what to call this, but it's Taylor in her own little world.  Most people don't get to see this side of her very often but it's certainly there!!!
