Style with determination is how to play the game....

Soccer Game Saturday.....

I'm so proud of my little athletes.

They play an excellent game....running, kicking, getting in the game.

Can you see Sweetheart and Princess Fifi in the photo above??

(hint: behind #9, they're in the green mesh covers)

 My Sweetheart is a my little spitfire........ she is always running hard and fast after that soccer ball!

She may be the smallest and youngest on this team but she is the quickest and hardest working...... even the BIG BOYS don't scare her!

It's funny how while playing Princess Fifi looks like she's posing Hollywood style 

(she the one with her hair in a high ballet bun)

Sweetheart is on the right keeping an eye on the ball and never too far from sis.

GO SCORPIONS!!

 (It's your LUCKY DAY.....click here , HERE, and here to see what we were doing last year. I must've been VERY inspired to write 3 blogs in 1 day!)

my little fireballs of energy

Early soccer game

Sweetheart and Fifi were very pleased with themselves, as they played an excellent game! 

I love my girls for trying soccer this summer.

Now a quick change and onto computer engineering camp.
Our days are never dull...

purple pride

It's a lovely day to be at the APS track field for another track meet with Princess Fifi.

But this time we have another person to help cheer for Fifi.......NANA!!

Nana's here with us and has decided to extend her stay.

My runner....

Our team purple finished well....finished strong....finished FIRST!!
"Oh yeah"

It's a perfect day to be outdoors....enjoying the track and field events.

....Very exciting as we cheer on our school.

There's loads of school spirit and pride in the stands as well as on the track.

.... many strong runners....the competition is intense!!

VERY EXCITING....... as if they were runners in the Olympics.

hmmm....

Fifi is the only athlete who has her very own personal trainer on the in field
....BAM

Do you see Fifi in the starting lineup for the 800 meter dash....
(purple tank, turquoise Under Armour top, purple shorts, and purple ombré leggings with hot pink track runners--and of course a bow in her hair)

Go Fifi!!!!

thunder bummer

It's a track meet day for Princess Fifi...... she's running the 800 meter dash.

We're at the SE Albuquerque public school stadium

Cookie and Sweetheart packed a blanket and a bag of sippy drinks, fruit, granola and nuts.

They were very prepared for the meet as they waited for Fifis event to come up.

But within 15 minutes after the meet began; a thunderstorm moved into the area.

Thunderstorms are very common in New Mexico. Often times without rain--just thunder and lightening.

The meet was put on safety alert as the athletes were moved into the gym.

The spectators were asked to evacuate the stadium and to wait in their vehicles.

After a little over 30 minutes the thunderstorm eventually moved on but then the fierce winds moved in.

The meet was cancelled

It's good to go home.... warm.... dinner.... safe (yeah)

running from the bone chilling weather

ON YOUR MARK.... 

GET SET....

BANG!!!

We're supporting our Princess Fifi as she competes in her very first track meet.

It's a very, very, chilly day.
New Mexico weather is so strange!
Most of the time the weather is warm and beautiful. But sometimes we get these crazy cold snaps.
Despite the cold temperatures, the participants must run their events.
Brrrr.....

Look at that bit of snow on the southern end of the Sandia Mountains....
and that WIND!

The track runners look cold but a few lucky ones like our Fifi dressed in SMART layers.
Fortunately for Fifi she wore her cold weather running gear by Under Armour.
We love this company! (Look here)
Great stuff!!

Fifi in her track outfit with her black layered Under Armour.

Bam is leading Fifi off the field and out of the stadium after a very cold but very successful run!
Great Job Fifi!
Yay!!

can't catch me....

After school Princess Fifi is trying out for her school track and field team.

I'm proud of my little Fifi

She is accomplished in so many ways.....

She's super smart, beautiful, friendly, funny, athletic, and multi-talented.

She's got sky high ambitions and goals....

and what a cutie too.

I ♥ u princess

We're cheering for you....

I wonder if I can find track shoes in HOT PINK???
