YEAH ERIKA!!

These pictures did not turn out as good as I'd expected- the coloring is all wrong.  Which totally bums me out since the lighting was so perfect!  But how could we pass up action photos of Erika playing soccer!  She's amazing!  And so fun to watch!  This game she played goalie first and then forward which was a lot of fun!  I asked her how she felt about the game at the end and she said, "That girl was SO TALL!"  See if you can find her in the pictures.  

Shedding the Shed

Some families like to build things together.  Our family likes to tear things down together :).  Well, just the ugly shed.  I wish I'd gotten a REAL before picture!  They started the demo without me while I was taking Kelly to her car wash.  But it was fun to come home to this crowd.  Nate was putting on quite the show for everyone- Jack and Molly even invited me to "come watch the show!" with them.  Everyone took a turn with the sledge hammer (I was holding the camera of course).  Nate was showing off his bulging muscles as usual :).  

And I didn't get a real AFTER photo either because I took Erika to her soccer game.  

But it feels so good to have that thing gone!  Feels like a weight has been lifted! 

Smoked (first attempt at pictures of Nate's food)

I'm not sure if these will cut it, but I was kind of proud of them :).
