Wow...a month has gone by and life is bizarre here in Bullhead. It seems like we run from place to place every night after work and school. As a mother though, I love it! I enjoy watching my children play, listening to their concerts and hearing them laugh. I literally fall in to bed every night, but it is so worth it. My poor husband seems to always take the back plate - but he never complains about anything.
I am very happy to say that soccer is finally OVER. I so enjoyed our soccer season this year though. I think it was the best one yet. We did have some issues with Skyler's coach, but he managed to make it through the season and his team took second place. They advanced to the divisional playoffs, but Skyler choose not to play. He had had enough and was done. We did not fight him at all but I would have liked to see him play. He got a trophy and a medal for second place.
Boyd's team was awesome. He had the best coach I have ever seen (well, besides Rob). He was so positive with his team and fun to be around. He made Boyd work hard and did not let him slide at all. "Cruz Azul" took first place in the season. We were so excited they beat the best place team in the last two games. They too advanced to divisionals, but did not do as well as we would have liked. The won all of their games, but it is based off of a point system, and did not have enough points to go to the final game. Oh well, I can not be more proud of my boys for being good sports and being a team player. Now for basketball...
Besides all the soccer practices and games (did I mention we were at the soccer fields for 10 out of the last 14 days - and one of those days for 7 hours), there were concerts, ward parties, work and a daughter coming home from college. I am so glad to have the ward party over - they are much more enjoyable when I am not in charge of them :-). We had about 180 people at our party which is the most we have ever had. Many have said it was the best ward party they have been too. Cortnie has been busy performing all over town with her choir group and she sang in church on Sunday. Her Christmas concert was wonderful - even though I missed the first half of it watching a soccer game; but I ran from the field when it was over and made it just in time to see her go on stage.
Yes, I love being a mom. For Christmas...I would love to have my children small again and get the chance to do even more with them. Many people say they can 't wait for their children to leave - but I wish mine were still small. They are my pride and joy. Of course, on the top of my list would be more hours in the day to spend with my best, eternal friend. Rob, I love you from the bottom of my heart. You make the person I am today and you make me smile.
In case I don't get back before then...Have a Merry Christmas!!
