Schaugaard Family....Forever!: Soccer...Gym Meet...Dance Recital...

...all in one day!

On Saturday, April 17th, 2010, we had a very busy yet fun-filled day. We started the morning with Rylee's soccer game at 10am. Team Wheelers played such an awesome game today. They all tried really hard and had a great game. Rylee made a goal and while being goalie she stopped several balls from becoming a goal. Team Wheelers won their game and had so much fun doing it. It was kind of funny because Shanda was signed up to bring drinks and Kellon's mom Amber was signed up to bring treats. Well Shanda knew she wouldn't be there because of the gym meet, so she asked me to bring drinks for her. So I did. Well at the end of the game I walked over to Amber to ask if she had her treats so we could hand them out together and she had completely forgot to bring treats. Of course kids have no idea how it works, so when they came up to get their drink and their treats, all I handed them was a drink. Well they assumed since I was handing out drinks that I was also responsible for treats and they kept saying, "this is it?" Now the kids all think I am the lame mom that only brings drinks and no treats on my treat day! I had to tease Amber a little about it. It was pretty funny!

As soon as the game ended we ran home, I changed Rylee's clothes and then Rylee and I ran out the door to watch the gym meet while Brett stayed home with Dax so he could have his nap. We made it to the gym meet just in time. Four of my nieces were in tumbling this year and were each doing two passes. Trinity is 11 and is on level 5. In her group she took 1st place. Teyara is 11 and is on level 4. In her group she also took 1st place. I was so proud of these two. They both did so awesome! Then my niece Jayde just turned 7 and she is on level 3. In her group she took 2nd place. And then Jayslin just turned 6 and she is also on level 3, but a younger age group and she took 3rd place in her group. I am so proud of them also. It was Jayde & Jayslin's first year to be in tumbling. All four of them did so great out there. Good Job girls, I love you!

After the gym meet, I stopped to grab Brett and the kids some lunch and then went home. We knew we had a few hours to play before Rylee had to get ready for her dance recital so we all went on a family 4 wheeler ride. Papa Rick and Lily came along with us. Dax rode with Mommy, Rylee rode with Daddy, and Lily rode with Papa. We had a really good time and even stopped to catch a lizard for Rylee to hold...okay, Brett caught a lizard for Rylee to hold, not "we"!

After that we came home, got Rylee all ready for her dance recital and then headed to Salina so we could get there in time to watch all the soloists perform also. All of them did such a great job and it was so fun to watch. We had Trinity, Teyara, and Rylee all dancing tonight so it was fun to be able to watch all of them. They had lots of people there to watch them....Grandma Dean, Tom, Mercedes, Grandma Judi, Papa Rick, Grandma Shauna, Aunt Shanda, Rylan, Jayde, Jayslin, Trayton, Mayson, Aunt Brinne, Kailey and of course Aunt Andrea was there and Mommy & Daddy! We love watching her, she looks so cute up there and does so good. Trinity & Teyara did fantastic in both their dance and production. They have so much fun with their "Wild Child" routine and then Production is so fun to watch, even though they were zombies and a little scary looking. The production number was to the different Michael Jackson songs. For Rylee's dance routine it was to "Strawberry Shortcake Twist". Rylee's little dance class got up there and looked so cute and did such a great job. They were completely adorable! Rylee & Ady are the youngest in the group. The rest the girls are going into Kindergarten this year, except Rylee and Ady. It will be fun to have Rylee keep dancing with all her friends.

My camera wasn't taking that great of pictures inside the auditorium, but I did get a few of Rylee before the performance.
