i had such good intentions of finding something to blog about last night. and tonight. things just feel off, if i don't blog a certain amount of days a week. i know, it's silly. some weeks are just busier and crazier than others. that's how it's been around here.

**************************************************************************

last weekend, we had our last tournament for sarah's all-star team. that was a little over seven months straight, of soccer for sarah. it was a good season, and we finished with a fabulous weekend. but the break will be nice, before fall season starts up.

alyssa made the JV soccer team at the high school. so she's just finishing up pre-season games, and then we'll head into the real games. still lots of soccer going on. five days a week for her.

joe started umpiring at the high schools last week. he took a break from umpiring for a few months, since he was busy coaching sarah's fall soccer team, and also the all-star team. but he's back in full swing. just this week, he has 6 games. in addition to working his night job.

the girls have both had SO many half-days at school, and days off for random holidays and teacher work days. i think, since going back after winter break, they've only had one FULL week, with no days off. weird. and they're off all next week for spring break.

alyssa is so excited to be headed to disneyland next week for a few days, with the high school band. it's a trip they take every other year. lots of fun stuff planned. band stuff. recording stuff. and some disney mixed in.

i've been busy working on layouts for random projects and guest designer things. it seems i havn't been keeping very good track of things, since i keep doing the "OMG. i think i have something due tomorrow" routine. my procrastination and forgetfullness kill me.

i have a new daycare baby that started this week. a 4 month old. which suddenly makes me realize that the so-called "baby" that i had already been watching, isn't really a baby. as soon as you get a younger kid, you realize how HUGE the other kids really are. lol! today, i had a 4 month old, a 1 year old (actually, he turns 1 today!), and a 2 year old. all boys. it was a little crazy at times, but we all survived.

**************************************************************************

that's the main stuff. the stuff that i can remember anyways. i promise i'll be back on saturday, with a layout share. i can promise that, because i have something going on on the bella blvd blog. and then hopefully, i can get back into a blogging routine next week.

    Love when you give us upadates like this. I am still amazed at your doing daycare and your scrapbooking jobs at the same time. You are WONDER WOMAN!! My little cousin I watch just turned one last month, it’s amazing how fast the time goes.
    We are skipping soccer this spring and trying something new…TENNIS. Sam really wanted to do this and it’s at the same time as soccer so he had a tough choice to make. I will miss the soccer fields so much this season but excited about tennis.
    Have a good day!!
    p.s. I just read thru your last 3 posts and LOVE all your layouts. They are always full of fun and COLOR!!

    I think it’s so awesome that your hubs spends so much time with your girls coaching their teams! Good for the girls in more ways than you can imagine!

    Laura played rec soccer for a few years back when she was in elem school. It was fun her last year, trying to keep my middle (at the age of 1) off the field. Brit, I keep trying to tell her she needs to play tennis. She won’t do it. I think Ben will be my sports kid. Waiting for the community ed thing to come around so I can get him signed up for t-ball this summer. I procrastinate too. 🙂 I have a bunch of stuff due this weekend. But with cooking for the tax office and tearing up our laundry room to paint and put up cabinets, tile the floor… then hurricane Ben.. he leaves quite a wake of toys in his path! I hope you have a great weekend! Tell Alyssa to have fun!! Hubby has gone to DisneyLand for Band back many years ago when he was in high school. 🙂
