boys in their ambulance

Today was Jacob's last soccer game for the season. We got there early so he could kick the ball around with Daddy. Soon Royce was there and ran out to play with them. They passed the ball to each other for awhile. Then the boys tried scoring goals on Jared. After a while several others from Jacob's team came and Jared had to work hard to try and keep them from scoring. Jacob did really well for his last game even though his back was hurting. He took a hard fall on the slide the other day right onto his back. After the game the coach gave all the boys trophys which had their names ingraved on them. Then there was a pizza party. From there we went to Target so Jacob could buy something with his birthday money. He knew he wanted legos but had a hard time deciding which set(s) to get. He was really excited about the sets he chose. I got my first lego set too - the log cabin creator. At home I tucked Eli in for a nap. Adam and I worked on the log cabin while Daddy and Jacob worked on building the Red Super Speedster. Then Jared went outside to mow the lawn. Jacob and I then put together his other set. I just helped him find pieces for each step. After dinner we headed to my parents house so Dad and Jared could change the brake pads on the  car. The boys played on the swings/slide/sandbox. Eli is getting more used to walking in the grass, usually he wants to stay right by me or wants to be held. The boys, Papa, Daddy, and I played a fun game of baseball. Nana built a fire and we sat by it on the swings. We got home around 10pm.
