Princess Q is 5!



Yesterday our little princess turned 5 years old! This is a birthday she has been dreaming of for about a year! She is sooooo excited about going off to kindergarten this year! She is a funny kid, and we get a kick out of her (most of the time). She keeps us on our toes! I can't believe she will be going off to school this fall! Not sure what happened to the last 5 years! Quincy loves to be busy. She adores going biking and fishing with Colin. She loves playing football and soccer, but was not as fond of softball this summer, although I do think she had fun! She is also constantly dirty, from digging in the dirt, sand, or whatever else she can get her hands into! She loves the pigs, probably more than all the other kids combined! We are very blessed to have her in our family! We love you Q and hope you had a good birthday!

Yesterday, as it seems to have become tradition, I took Quincy shopping to pick out some birthday gifts. As we were in line to check out the woman in front of us bumped into the woman in front of her. I guess it might have been the heat, or the aggravation of waiting in line in walmart, but they got into a fight. Quincy looked at them and said "please don't cuss, I am only 5 years old!" The woman in front of us apologized to her! It was pretty funny! And a good life lesson I guess!!! As I said, she keeps us all thinking and on our toes!


Preston and Quincy both played in tournaments last night. Both teams lost in the first round games, which was sad - sort of - until I realized it freed up the rest of this week from the ballpark! Having a few days off from sitting out there is never a bad thing! Preston's team played really well, and ended up losing by one point, it was sad to see them lose after playing so well!


If I was being honest, I would say that I didn't really expect Quincy's team to go on in the tournament. They haven't won a game this summer, and they don't really have any type of attention span anywhere on the field! They did have really awesome socks though! :) Quincy told me that she didn't really like softball, but she did like her shirt! Maybe she will love it next year! When Mallory and Madison were this age, they told Jim that the best part of softball was sitting in the dugout doing cheers with their friends. It almost broke Jim's heart, but to see them now, you would never know they felt that way when they were little!
