BK "Varsity for a Day"

Friday night Gabby & Adriana participated in Bishop Kelley High School's "Varsity for a Day." The girls had the opportunity to do this because they attended BK's Spirit Camp this summer. They cheered on the BK Comets football team during the first half on the sideline and it was so adorable! Gabby participated last year but this year Adriana was old enough and she had a great time! BK played Bishop McGuinness from OKC, a big rivalry, so it was a fun atmosphere. Unfortunately, BK lost but the girls still had a blast! It was also a very chilly evening. Perfect football weather!

Standing liberty...future cheerleader?!
Kick it, girl!
They did some small stunts, too. So cute! 
Go BK!
After all the sideline fun, the girls were still smiling. But as Adriana put it on our way back to the van, "it was cold fun!" Love these girls!

First Soccer Games of the Season

Saturday Gabby & Adriana had their first soccer games this season in the rain. It was Adriana's first game ever. They both played well and we had a lot of fun watching them. Adriana scored 2 goals! She is really starting to understand the game and is a little beast out there! Ha! Gabby blocked a goal with her face -- complete sacrifice for the team -- so we are very proud of her effort, too!

Before their games.
A little collage of the soccer excitement. What a fun and wet morning!

Visit to Ames

We spent Labor Day weekend in Ames visiting Nonna, G-Pa, Uncle Tommy, Aunt Danielle & Vinny. We attended the ISU game Saturday. It was the first game for G-Pa and Uncle Tommy to coach the Cyclones. ISU came up short, but we still enjoyed our time visiting family and in cooler northern temperatures. 

Our sweet girls on the sideline before kick-off. They loved the pre-game fanfare upclose.
