Today was a good day.  My parents came to Bryce Canyon with us and I loved spending time with them - even though most of the time was driving.  I also got to hike with D and the girls in some awesome scenery.  Hoodoos are just cool.

Rylie finished her soccer season tonight and it has made me think about this fall season.  A couple of thoughts:
1.  I really miss watching Mason play.  He was such a solid player and I loved watching him play defense.
2.  Cam and I were totally gypped out of her season.  That knee injury was no fun and I would have liked to see her soccer smile this fall.  She loves playing soccer and has really looked forward to it.  However she handled it great - better than me.  :)
3.  Sadie has been fun to watch this season.  She's not the fastest or strangest but she gets in there and hustles and is consistently in the right spot and gives great passes.  She has had a lot of assists this season.  I have a lot to learn from her about sports and life.
4.  It has been fun to watch Rylie's season evolve.  I was frustrated with her playing time at the very first of the season but by the end of the season she was playing the entire game rotating between left defender and middle defender.  Way fun to watch her play all game.

What would I do without my Rylie?  She's just so great.  One of my favorite things to do is watch movies with her.  We definitely don't do it enough. 

We celebrated her birthday with a movie and bowling and a caramel apple and fries and a shake.  Hannah Wilcox decorated her room and it was so cute and fun and birthday-like.

I asked her some things she really likes now at 14.  She said - movies (especially super hero movies), Zupas, fruit, board games and card games and outside games like Cornhole and backyard volleyball and kickball, break rolls, The Flash TV series, and road trips (the driving part).

Fantastic fall hike to Silver Lake.  The yellow reflection in the lake was so cool.

The Red Sox lost so they're out of the playoffs.  We took some tissue over to the Algers to dry their eyes.  :)
