Well hello there....

Messy house. Loads of laundry. Soccer practice. Library trips. Movies in Mommy & Daddy's bed. Early mornings. Home-cooked meals. Bath time. Mid-day tickle sessions. Lacrosse games. Karate lessons. Homework. Dirty dishes. Saturday chores. Cuddling on rainy days. Piggyback rides. Surprise trips. Long walks. Hiking in the Park. Playing. Living. Laughing. Loving. This is our life and we wouldn't have it any other way.

Welcome to our photo-journal.

Mustangs, GET SOME!

Cleaning out the storage closet at school today made me a bit nostalgic. Its my last season coaching field hockey at Meade, as I want to concentrate on building the lacrosse program. The program went really far in the past three seasons and while I'd like to say that I played a role in that, I really owe the credit to my amazing seniors. Leaders, who poured their blood, sweat and tears into the team. It was a great time ladies, thank you.

Top 5 things I will miss about Meade Field Hockey....

1. Getting pants almost daily. Being preggo did not make me any less vulnerable.

2. "Mustangs, get some"; "We piss excellence", "Boom Boom Tap" and all the other slogans/team mottos that these girls came up with still brings a smile to my face.

3. Ice. Yes, getting ice and water down my back after a win, even if it was freezing out, made my life. If winning could be described in a feeling, it would be shocking and refreshing all at once.

4. Laughing, every game, every practice, all the time. I could come to practice mad and frustrated at the world and leave with my sides hurting (especially at U.S.'s perverted bantor, K.P.'s daily butt-smack, and N.S.'s dirty dance moves).

5. And, being able to show the girls that four years of hard work really DOES pay off.
