Soccer

Last Saturday was the second last soccer game for the season. It's a challenge for us, well for me at least to take Emir to his practices, twice a week and then to his games on weekends, one game each on Saturday and Sunday. I love going to the games, cheering for him and for his team. The practices though, not so much. They have had great games and Emir scored two goals so far. He has a wonderful coach and he gets along very well with his teammates.

I took this picture last year from the ferry on the way back home. It was our first time to Seattle.

Happy Birthday Ezzat!

Daniel came up with a sweet idea in making the present giving fun and awesome! He made it like some sort of a treasure hunt with clues so Ezzat had to hunt for his presents.

Ezzat is 8

Today is Ezzat's birthday and he's 8. We didn't really plan for anything special since the boys said they wanted to have a combined party. Well, I actually gave them the idea since I am really not up to having 3 birthday parties 2 weeks apart from each other. With my condition at the moment, preparing for one already sounds pretty daunting. As a matter of fact, we've never thrown one before. Not even once. It was always a small family affair. But the boys have been going to their friends' birthday parties and now they really want one for themselves, especially Emir. He's been talking about it for quite awhile. But the birthday boy is getting his present today and he is getting his chocolate cupcakes and cheese pizza. I'd say that's a pretty good deal.

I've been looking at his pictures since last night since he first came to the States. He actually changed quite a bit. I really miss his chubbiness. He is also more talkative now. He used to be the quiet one. I thought I'd share some of them with you guys.
