Mum

It's mothers' day! I have a mum who read to me, fed me, waited up for me, smiled at me, talked to me, prayed for me, laughed with me (at me sometimes), cried for me, loved me.

LUCKY ME!

So you may be wondering where I have been. It has been one heck of a busy year and I just thought I should say hola to all of my friends in bloggy world before I most certainly disappear again. The spring season of lacrosse and volley ball is upon me and here is the schedule from now til the end of May :

Monday- practice Millie/ Joey
Tuesday- practice Bret/ Jenna Games Joey/ Millie (same field*** AMEN)
Wednesday- YM/YW practice Joey/ Millie Game Bret
Thursday- practice Jenna/Joey/ Bret Game Millie
Friday- Practice Millie Game Joey (same field again ** smiles**)
Saturday- Practice Joey Game Bret

Jenna also has tournys all over the place and Joey has out of state travel. Did I mention that it is tax season for Doug? THANK GOODNESS Joey can drive!
I'm not complaining. Excited really. Love it all. Just wondering how on earth we will ever see each other over the next couple months, but we will.

Merry Christmas 2009!

Mum and Dad

This is a photo of my mum and dad dancing the other night at their new home. All I can say is, ladies, may we all have someone who will look at us like the way my father looks at my mother after 65 years together.

Vegas Starz

9 games played...9 games won. And California thought Vegas couldn't compete. It's on to SLC this week for the Rocky Mountain Lax Showcase. Go Joey and the Starz!

Oh Fathers...

Father's day for the best dad around happened while we were , yup you guessed it, on the road. Joey had another tournament in LA so Doug and I decided to pack up the family for this event and spend a weekend away. I know, just the 6 of us. Not too romantic. Actually not one minute alone, but enjoyed by all. Doug is wonderful. You all know that. Our kids are lucky. He is 100% in a world where most dad's are 10% at best. I don't doubt for a minute both the boys admire him and desire to be 'just like dad' when they grow up. The girls, well, they will have a hard time finding a guy who measures up.

I don't say it enough, but I think it all the time. Doug, you are the best!
