A Busy Saturday

Today started just like any other Saturday in September... with soccer! Rosanna totally kicked butt and scored three goals, which makes a total of seven for the season! I'm so proud of her, not just because of the goals she has scored, but because she is a great player who runs hard, and has a great sense of sportsmanship. She lets her other teammates get time with the ball, and doesn't push or call names like some of the girls on the other teams do.

Layla also got a little practice with the ball and is ready to get in there and join the team. However we decided to wait until she is five and started Kindergarten before we get her registered. After the soccer game, the girls and I went to the Farmer's Market by CSI and found some really yummy fruit and veggies, and also some homemade salsa and raspberry jam. This was our first time to the market and I look forward to going again soon!



When we got home we checked in on Rob, who had his knee operated on this week. The surgery went really well, but he is still in some pain and confined to the couch for a while to heal. The girls and I are playing nurse so that he has everything he needs, he just has to get up at least once an hour to walk around and get the circulation going. Hopefully he will be back to as good as new and ready to hike those mountain trails soon!

A "Holiday" Weekend

Along with the rest of the workforce, I have been looking forward to this three day weekend ever since the last three day weekend we had! However, it did not turn out quite as relaxing as I thought it would be. From cleaning up after sick kids to pulling down wallpaper at my grandma's house, to learning three new songs in three days... there is not much left that I haven't already done! I guess getting back to work tomorrow will feel like a vacation from everything else!

I spilled my puzzle...

I'm not great with analogies, but I tend to think of my life as a puzzle, with each piece coming together in a nice pattern that makes a beautiful picture. Some of the pieces being my husband, children, faith, job, pets, music, etc. However, lately I feel like someone has come along and scooped my puzzle onto the floor! All the pieces are still there and in good shape, they just aren't fitting together like they should be. I think one of the reasons for this is that I keep adding new pieces and I'm trying to take out some of the old ones. I just need a little rest and a chance to clear my head and then I will be ready to put everything back together again!


See, this is what happens when you write your blog at 11:30 at night!
