Soccer, football and Sushi

During football season Wednesday nights are my favorite. We don't have practice and Amy, Vika and I sit out side and watch Justin do Tae Kwan Do. Vila also usually gets a story read to her.
Saturday morning was soccer for Vika and football for Justin. Vika is really starting to shine. Justin's team beat Westminister.
Saturday night Justin went to a friends house while Vika stayed at home with Taylor. Amy and I headed to the CWE and had a nice evening.
