SFX vs. Mt. Brook

This morning started early with John Michel's first soccer game.  He was so excited.  The boys' both love sports, which makes me happy.  Even though we stay slammed all year,  I know the day we will come that they will be on their own and we will be bored.  so for today and until that day comes I am thankful for the craziness that is my life. 
The game was atBrookwood Forrest Elementary, which to us is about as convienent as sandpaper for toilet paper, but hey it is what is it is.  This is going to be a little rant about the new league that the school joined.  First, too much mass chaos at that field...13 games at one time.  Seriously.....too much going on.  Second, there are NO refs.  Third, there are NO bathrooms.  Fourth, the parking is horrible, it would be bad with two games going on with 13, cars are parked down South Brookwood Road, it is pathetic.  I am not really sure what the leauge uses the funds that they collect for since Refs are not provided.  Anyway, just irritating.  Now to the game.
The boys played great, they had a great time too.  The Mountain Brook team was rough and they lost, but they will get better and they had fun and in my opinion that is really what matters.  The kids are enjoying it and they are learning and that is what we all should want for our babies. 
We headed home after the game to watch Auburn and Louisianna Monroe.  It was a great game, and we finaly got a W under our belts, even though it was a field goal in OT.  I am so proud of the Auburn Tigers.  Of course I always am because they are playing hard.  It is all new this year so they have to find their groove. They will soon.  WAR EAGLE!!!
Craig, Liz, Lydia, and Mallechi came over to eat Brandon's hamburgers and hotdogs, and just hang out.  It was so great catching up with them and it not being at work or right at 8:00 in the morning when we are dropping the babies off at school.  It is nice to be able to enjoy the house and have guests, and not have to stress about how bad everything looks.  We laughed, and caught up and just had a good time.  After they left the boys passed out.  They had been going non stop and seriously I think they were asleep before Craig and Liz made it to the Interstate.

First Soccer Game





Know that pictures will be added soon. I am just behind on uploading. I will be caught up soon!
We got up this morning and headed to the school for John Michael's first soccer game. He was so excited, and I have to admit so was I. He looked so cute in his uniform. We did not get the shirts until this morning, and it is a good thing, because we owned one red shirt and it was more spider man than red. He was super glad to see it too, mainly because he was worried about not having a number. Of course I was the woman on the field with the camera. I stood at the goal for one half and then the sidelines for the second half. They did not win, but they had a blast and that is what I care about the most. They truly had a really good time.
We left the game and came home. Well, Brandon dropped me and the boys off and he headed to help Kimy, Steven, and Deborah close the pool. I cannot believe that summer is over. It is so sad. It does not seem like it was long enough at all.
When he got home we got down to watching Football. Watching Auburn play just makes me happy. Today's game was the end of a 17 game winning streak. That is a little sad, but I also know that there is a lot of talent that is very fresh right now. Win or Lose I am an Auburn Fan, it is in my blood and I love and am so proud of the Tigers. So many people forget that these guys are kids, seriously, just support them. There is no reason at all to hate kids. WAR EAGLE!
Well, I am off to bed, please pray for the special intention that I have mentioned. I know that it is hard not knowing details, but trust me God knows them. I just need the gates stormed right now.
