sorry so long

It's been a while since I have written anything. During this time a few things have come about including a possible new house, selling the house we have and soccer season. We decided at the beginning of January to look into buying another home and selling ours. Greg wanted to live closer to town, his family and work. We found a cute little bungalow style home in Forest Acres (downtown Columbia). It's convinent to both of our jobs, church and the tennis courts Greg and William play on~! That was a much added bonus for Greg! We should be closing on the house in 90 days (from some date in january) if all goes well!
FINALLY, all the wallpaper in our home is gone! It was dreadfull! We've finished painting and are just waiting for our home to sell! Elizabeth's (my sister - in - law) dad is the agent we are using for both homes!
Soocer season started the 4th of January as well. The past three years I knew what kind of team I would have but this year was wide open. We started off losing the first 5 scrimmages but last weekend we won 2 games and then won our season opener on Tuesday! It was good for the girls to get those wins ~ and for me to keep my sanity! I've got a great group of girls this year (23 in all) which is something else. Each year katie and I have them all over for a slumber party/team bonding. (katie coaches with me she's 25) We sent them on a scavenger hunt, ate dinner at Monterrey's then had a craft time. After craft time, it turned into a dance off! Yep, 23 - 14,15,16 year old girls in one house. I can truly say that I have learned so much about life through coaching - it is definitely something the Lord wants me to be involved with. I forgot how hard high school is and never realized how decisions in high school affect the rest of your life!
So, right now I'm coaching, working and trying to sell my house! Hind sight says to not try to all these at one time! Note to self for the future! That's about all right now....i'll try to write more often! Until next time......
