Soccer, Soccer & More Soccer!

Whew!  I really feel like a soccer mom lately, and let me tell you it is hard work.  I really miss those "lazy" Saturday mornings when I might get to sleep until around 7:30.  Who am I kidding?  Those days are long gone.  With two boys who will probably find at least one sport they want to play, I am sure our Saturdays from here on out will be filled.  Although it is tiring sometimes to drag ourselves out to the ball field for an early game, we really do love sharing these special times with the boys.  It is probably one of the biggest joys of having boys although there are many other joys too!  Last weekend, we actually had a kind of "double header" with back-to-back games on Friday night and Saturday morning.  I am thankful that is not a regular occurrence.

We finally got to play cousin Lanny's team and see him play in his first game too.
