Soccer Time

I signed Zack up for his first soccer camp and soccer season! He is beyond himself with excitement. He spent much of the day outside kicking the ball all the while encouraging Sophia to try to steal it. He is VERY driven to win. I'm hoping he also learns how to lose well.

I have always loved watching little league games and the such. When I was teaching, I would go and see my students play on the weekends. I am very much looking forward to watching my own kid out there learning a new game.

Today the kiddos received a package from their Uncle Jerry. They received a bunch of new clothes, fun chap stick, markers, crayons, and educational coloring books. They were beyond jazzed. Thanks Uncle Jerry, Aunt Julie and Kaylie!

Tomorrow is my birthday - 38! Woe, that went by fast... I was so excited to receive a new 750GB external hard drive! Now I get to back up all my pictures and videos. The kiddos gave me cards and with the help of Heather and Allie, I received some framed photos of the kiddos - very very nice gift!

Not sure what I'll be doing tomorrow, but one thing is for sure, I'll be thinking about what I'll do with the next 38. I also plan on making a few lists that will help me stay on track as I create the blueprints for our future. Of course, after the blue prints are created, they'll be submitted for approval to the only one whose opinions trump my own - God. :)

For the last time as a 37 year old, goodnight!

I should have known that you are a Leo! And I say that in a good way. My birthday is Thursday, Aug 7. Happy Birthday to us! Don't BDs have a new meaning with little ones at home?

Happy Birthday to you! Thirty eight seems so young once you hit the big 4-0. Hope your day is a great one.
