You gotta love'em BEAVS!

I just had to say before I go to bed tonight that I am SOOO proud of my beavers. If you did not know and I do not know how you could possibly not as it is in the news but the beavers went against USC, ranked number 1 in the country and WON. Now if you have not been following the season, the Beavers did not start out with a good season loosing their first two games. Now Freshman Jacquizz Rodgers ran 186 yards and two touchdowns, and Oregon State built an early lead and held on for a 27-21 upset victory over top-ranked Southern California.

I am very proud to say right now that I am a Beaver and yes that is better than being an oregon &%!? ( sorry the use of that word is not allowed in our home :)...! Keep dreaming Beavs because we know you can take down U of O in the Civil War!

AYSO Soccer

Diana has been playing soccer for two years now. She started in Corvallis when she was in kindergarten through AYSO and to be quite honest I signed her up to toughen up my little princess. Now two years later I have seen my little star blossom this year. Last year we saw some progress but this year I see her out there being aggressive in the girls faces and getting the ball. When I went to sign her up though in Albany, she did not have a coach soooo it ended up that my hubby....my terrific and wonderful husband is coaching her team the Dasisies. He went through all the training and spends time thinking out drills and exercises for practice.

The first game went not so good as it ended 9-0 ( hello.... there was this girl that made 8 out of the 9 that was like soccer skipper!). The following game was a much improvment over the week before! Diana and her team won 5-0! Keith was really proud of his team and I think it helped boost their spirt from the previous loss earlier.

Chloe at Diana's Soccer practice. I just LUUUuuv this dress on her. This girl would wear a dress everyday if she could. Even in winter she wears dresses with her jeans under the dress!

Hello to Landis! From Taylor

We heard from a reliable source that Landis is missing Taylor Nye! Taylor was very sad to hear this and wants to bring Landis some smiles. Taylor says

" Hi Landis." "Thank you for being my friend." "Thank you for playing with me." "Love you." " Landis, We need to go on a roller coaster in Disneyland." " Bu-bye."

** Landis - Taylor doesn't mind if you call him anytime! Love, Mama Rachel **
