Go Rebels!

Max's very first soccer game was on Saturday so we finally got to see what our little 'Under 5' team was made of. Being a typical mom, my first thought was, "They're so dang CUTE!" Then I had to get my game face on and start cheering the little rascals on. Gary had to work, but we kept in touch over the phone so he could get some play-by-plays. It looked as if the other team was going to forfeit there for awhile, but they ended up showing up about 5 minutes late. We were just happy to play.

Max had fun running around, but didn't seem to have much interest in getting the ball. He was more interested in running with the pack, and studying blades of grass in between plays. There are a couple boys in the team who have been playing for awhile now though, and they helped carry our team to a 12-4 victory! I'm crossing my fingers that Max will grasp the concept of soccer before the season is over.... Go Rebels!

Modern Technology?

As if.

After nothing but problems with this stupid computer for the last.... what? Year? Since it was built.... Jeremy was finally able to diagnose the problem. Seems I've had some bad RAM in it, and it was causing Windows to crash all the time.

Gah!

Oh well. Back in the saddle.... so to speak.

Life is so, so very busy these days. It's a sprint to the finish. The girls are still in dance classes, Kelly began piano lessons and her church Activity Days, and Max just joined a soccer team. Looks like Gary and I only have a couple evenings a week where we can stay in and lay like broccoli. It'll be like this until the end of the school year. No, actually it'll be until the dance recital is over in the middle of June.

Ah.... the life of a parent....


Speaking of soccer, isn't 'Under 5' soccer cute as heck? It's not soccer, it's really 'Bunch Ball.' Just a bunch of tiny little guys running around in a big bunch on the field. I love it! Makes me laugh. I'll have to take some pictures at his next practice....
