Soccer Season

-
We had a great fall soccer season! Sure, the logistics weren't ideal..

-We hoped to have a local team to practice with, but there weren't enough girls signed up so we joined a team 20 minutes away

-Practice was on Friday at 6, when Kent had football, so I took all the girls to practice YAY

But! It was fun to see Caris much more involved in the games this time around. She realized that if she kicked the ball hard and out ran other girls, she could score. And scoring is fun. winkyface But the best part? A TROPHY WITH YOUR NAME ON IT!! Eeeek! Go Care!
 The other highlight of the season was watching my dad watch small children "play" soccer. It tormented him. My mom on the other hand yelled all sorts of encouraging comments for both teams. BIG thanks to all the fam that came to early Saturday games! It made our soccer star feel very loved
 We very much felt like the Saturday Soccer Suburban Family

Did today feel different to you? Special in any way? Today, February 17, marks T E N Y E A R S of blogging for me! Whaaaattttt. I started blogging to document my family (the first post was about my dad falling down the steps after chasing squirrels with a shot gun.

After maxing out the free storage on my first blog, I switched to Packin' Parkers  until I landed at my current blog. Will you do me a huge favor? After ten years of clicking away on various keyboards, bearing my heart and soul to you  (guilt tactics in full force) and sharing pictures of those near and dear to me... Will you tell me who you are? I'm dying to know who my readers are! I know a few of you, but I'm curious to know who my lurkers are. I am the number one blog lurker, no shame. Reveal yourself! 1.

3 Reasons

3 Reasons:  Why It's a Good Idea to Move (Because "The Reasons Why We Shouldn't Move" would be too long &  too sappy)  1. I'm less likely to run into people from Middle School . This reason specifically addresses my 8th grade English teacher. I've probably seen her every year since the 8th grade and considering that that was thirteen years  ago, that's a lot of times. I've always resisted the urge to walk up to her and say, "You never taught me how to diagram sentences! You're the reason I'm not a writer!" But if I happen to see her after I move, I'll take it as a sign and invite her out to lunch...where she might just teach me how to diagram sentences. 2. It's a ritzy, upscale place . We're moving to a place where people are well off. Yes, there will be drawbacks to this and I probably wouldn't pick it if I had a choice (but that's a blog post for another day). While there will be drawbacks, the
