Just some long overdue updates!

Again, I am faultering on my blogging as of late. I am overwhelmed with the time management of kids, school and sports. Not to mention my working every so often, although I did finally give my notice so that will give me some relief! We finished basketball with an undeafeted season and we will play in the final tournament this coming Saturday! I am so proud of all of the boys and the great job they all did playing as well as learning excellent sportsmanship with their team mates and other teams as well. I had a few of the boys over a week ago for a night of roller skating and sleep over. It was a lot of fun but this ol' gal was exhausted the next day! They all wanted me to take them "ding-dong ditching". I was afraid to ask but I finally did only to find out it was just the old trick of knocking on doors and running away before someone answered. I tried to tell them that was probably not the best idea on Valentine's night even though they didn't understand! They settled for snipe hunting with Bart whatever that is.

Next we have baseball for Ross and soccer for Reese! As if my head isn't already spinning. We have had a long ongoing inner struggle trying to decide to keep Ross in Leonard sports or go elsewhere. Oh the small town politics and I have about decided Leonard is far worse than Celina ever thought about being. Bart has had two winning seasons with little league baseball here in Leonard and we have endured quite a bit of turmoil without going into detail. So, when we learned that they went about choosing their coaches a little differently this season, it made our decision easier as to what to do. Bart will coach this season in the Sherman league. We have been wanting to put Ross in that league for some time so it wasn't anything new. They are a much bigger, more organized league with strict rules about who coaches as well as parental behavior. I am excited to see what the season brings! The only bad thing, is that I had already signed Reese up for soccer in Bonham before this all came about! So now I will be going to two different towns for sports and still work in school two nights a week as well! Whew! It will work out and will be good for the kids. I will just be sure to register Reese to play in Sherman in the fall!! (If I make it that long!)

So, here are some random snapshots of the kids since I haven't done my blogging duty lately. I will be sure to post some sports shots soon! Reese is a little humdinger of a player so I'm excited to see this! She can out run Ross's basketball team!
