Heather

ok ok.......Heather saw my last post....and demanded I add her video........" fair is fair" she said......and by the way please leave comments if you like! This is a video I made a year or so ago.....Martina McBride is Heather's favorite artist.....I took her to her concert last year....and this song just says it all.......................

soccer and sleet





<
Today the kids both had soccer games......it was 35 degrees and sleeting!!!! I guess because we have had such a messed up Spring and most of their games have been cancelled they decided to play this time. It was COLD.
Heather scored her 1st goal of the year!!! Yeah Heather!! She played goalie for the 1st quarter and didn't let the other team score either..... Her team won 1-0!!
Joanthon played a very good game.....his team lost....we won't mention the score....but his team made some great plays.........I stood in a very strategic spot so I could see both games since they were played at the same time!!!! I give both the kids kudos since I was freezing my butt off!!!
I'm including a video of Jonathon's track/wrestling / soccer and other sports video.........I hope everyone enjoy's it. Hopefully next year he'll be running AAU track again.......I think he is missing it....hopefully we'll get back in the swing of things with Wrestling as well....we'll either have to go to Ste Genevieve or to Jackson...........
I'm so glad to have the other house rented..... now we are working on all the finishing touches.....life is grand!

Eric's Birthday and water problems

Sunday was Eric's 37th birthday......it was a beautiful weekend......the 1st rain free weekend in quite a while!
Unfortunately.....by early afternoon, Eric discovered a water spot on the back kitchen wall! Oh-no.....not after all the "water problems" this house and the house in Dexter have had..........
We still managed to have a wonderful weekend.....Heather had a soccer game....her team won 3-1. We then grilled chicken and porksteaks.....had a wonderful meal and a chocolate cake with 38 candles!!!!!!
I think the water problem will be fixed...and on top of it all it appears we have found a renter for our home in Dexter.....God works in mysterious ways.....Divine Providence....if we just learn to have faith...to Trust....things usually work out.....not always in our way....but in the best possible way for the "long run".
Sunday Heather was also asked to be on an "all-star" soccer team! That really made her day. She absolutley LOVES soccer..Jonathon loves ALL sports....as long as he is playing something he is happy. Heather will play soccer..and not much else.
I have gotten back in a routine of running. Most mornings I am out at 5:00 am and back to putting in between 3-5 miles. My hope is to run the Lewis and Clark Marathon this summer.....we'll see..I may opt for the half marathon...but I can dream for now!
