Busted...

Little Bug busted her first soccer ball from over use.  I had no idea that this could really happen in life.  We have about every size of soccer ball, but we have our favorites and this was one of them.  We have signed soccer balls that we don't use.  We have Garrett's soccer balls and don't worry, we have practice balls and game balls.  That way the game balls don't get used up.   We have special pumps, one in the car and one in our soccer bag so it is just the right feel to it and believe me there are no flat balls at our house. It is a science that I didn't know about.

We spend a lot of time at the soccer field.  It seams like the last year soccer has become a huge part of our life.  We have soccer practice for two hours, two to three times a week in Savannah and then games or practice on the weekends.  The hardest part for me is that you don't really get the final schedule until the week before and if you are playing in a tournament, it can change at any moment.  This is not good for someone who likes to plan.  So, we moved Bug's piano lessons to 8:30 a.m. on Saturdays to make sure we get it in. 

This is from our 1st traveling tournament to Charleston, SC for the Piggly Wiggly Tournament and the girls had to have breakfast between games.  Nothing like chocolate chip pancakes with whip cream and sweet tea between games.  I thought I was going to puke and I was not evening playing.

Over the years, you would think that I could take a decent picture of the Little Bug playing soccer but I have not been able to figure it out yet.  I have a feeling that I have a few more chances. 

Little Bug playing Keeper.

One of the things that Little Bugs' coaches do is to make sure that all the players play all of the positions.  That way they have a chance to really see what position that they like best.  Little Bug like Keeper okay but Garrett has to leave when he is watching.  For some reason yet to be determined, Garrett can't stand when she plays Keeper. I think it would be funny if that is one of the positions that she like best.  Little Bug's Favorite at this time are right wing but not left wing, sometimes we like forward and keeper.

I Only Get Soo Far...

You see, I write my blog in my head at events and take the pictures but I only get so far in posting them.  It may sound crazy but I do really enjoy blogging and think about it all the time but time is the enemy and always gets away from me.

I also only get soo far on the new house.  Garrett has been busy at work and we are all busy with activities and things in the evening and weekends so it seems like it we don't ever get any where.  I did decided to have someone mow the first time.  I am nervous that there might be alligators and mosquitoes the size of Texas. The grass is the up to my thighs in some places.  But I know we will get a handle on it.

I did get the laundry room and kitchen painted with the help of Ms. Kathy and Garrett.  I took the tape off today and I love it.  It is the perfect color and I can't wait to see what it will look like when it is all cleaned up.

In the meantime...

 This is the largest wall to show you the color but this is only the 1st coat of paint. 

The color is the same but the coverage is better. 

The fridge just got moved to the back corner in this picture.  It just barely fit and

we will have to be careful when opening the doors as to not bang up the walls.   

The laundry room.  I can't wait to see how everything fits.  I do really like

doing laundry as long as I don't have to put it away or fold the sheets. I am going to hang a key

rack by the door and a drying rack I found on pinterest.  I just have to get it made.

I know it may sound silly but it has been fun and overwhelming all at the same time.  Everyday, I think thank goodness for books on tape!
