September is lovely. The weather is starting to cool down..... those blasted allergies are finally getting better......fall is in the air! For our Maughan family night we were able to take a tram ride up Snowbird and it was beeee-utiful!
Here's the whole gang. How we love this gang!
It was a little bit chilly up there....
"Look at my beautiful swirly hands!"
This is inside the tram. The thing was actually packed, but we got in there early so we could get a window spot.
It was gorgeous!!
Folks, we've got a new cowboy in town. Keep an eye on your daughters because he's a heart-breaker.
And good luck if you want to enter Rach and Josh's room. It's got some heavy security.
Trav, Will and I took a little Sunday afternoon walk to the ponds to feed the ducks.....
Okay, another good thing about September is that soccer season starts. Yes!! I love it! Josh is on the Wasabi Warriors this year. He's had a lot of good shots on goal but yet to have one go in. Here he goes again!
But look at the size difference of the guy he's guarding....
Kate has matching uniforms with Josh but she's on the Grasshoppers. Aren't they the cutest?
Flowing ponytails....
And, mommy is the coach. That's why they're so awesome!!
Kate is an amazing defender! While everyone plays bunch ball she stays on her post and doesn't let ANYTHING in! The ref asked me last game to keep her away from the goal because the other team couldn't score. Boo hoo for them! (I wish you could sense sarcasm in type)
She is one tough Grasshopper!
On her very first game, the ref blew the whistle for the game to be over. The other team all ran off the field to do a cheer, get treats and all that jazz. Kate and one other girl didn't hear the whistle. So...thinking she had a fast break she dribbled the ball all the way down the field....shot it...and scored!!!! It was totally awesome. She was jumping up and down and kept saying "I can't believe it!! I scored!!! The other team wasn't anywhere near me to try to stop me!!! I can't believe it!!!" Everyone on the sidelines cheered and she was strutting around like she just won the world cup. It was awesome!!
I did break the bad news and said the ref had blown the whistle but the goal still totally counted. So now she'll say in her recounting "He blew the whistle, but it still totally counted." This is going to be a fun season!
This is the only picture of Rach on the white Knights. I'm sure we'll have lots more but not this round. It's a 5/6 grade team so again, she's one of the smallest and youngest out there. But....size isn't everything. She is definitely one of the best on her team! She's amazing!!
Over labor day weekend we decided we needed to go on a hike. We went up to Stewart Falls up Provo-ish canyon. It was amazingly beautiful!! There were a ton of people on the trail, but we still had a lot of fun. Rach brought her own camera so she was snapping shots all over the place.
We had to nickname Kate "Stewart" this trip because she kept falling. Ha ha ha! "Stewart Falls" We're so hilarious.
It was so lush and green everywhere. It was gorgeous!
We made it!!
Trav, Rach and Josh hiked to the top of the smaller waterfall. It looked pretty scary from where I was!
Here's some cool shots of the waterfall....
Kate and I matched. We totally didn't plan that. Some guy even made a comment about it on the hike up.
It was such a great hike. I totally would do it again.
