Too busy to blog :)







This past week has just flown by for me. We left right after school last Friday for South Bend, IN where Victoria played in a soccer tournament. She played two games Saturday, two games Sunday & the championship game on Monday. Her team ended up 5-0-0, outscoring their opponents 15-2. It really should have been 15-0 as the team that scored were blatantly off-sides with no calls. The refs at some of the games were not the best! We had one lady, who called everything the other coach yelled at her. She subbed in players at the wrong time. Her worst call was when one of the players on the other team went down in the box. After the girl left the field she did a drop ball right in front of our goal. Let's just say, she probably won't be a ref for too long. Victoria did score two goals and had a blast with her friends. She had a game last night, which they won, and two more this weekend. Then soccer is over until the fall, she is really bummed about it. Hopefully, we'll make the A team again next year! Try-outs are next week, so we should know soon.

We did make a quick trip to the Notre Dame campus while we were in town. That's us, the wee little people in front of the dome. Mark, Alex and Maddie also took a quick trip to the zoo on Saturday. All in all, it was a great weekend, just a long one. We stopped off in Michigan to say hello to my parents on Monday, so it was 6:00 before we got back to Findlay.
Today, we are heading for Kalahari water park right after school lets out. Victoria's girl scout troop is going, so Mark and the kids decided to come along too. They've expanded since the last time we were there, so it should be lots of fun!
