Our Weekend

My big computer went down last week. So I have only been able to upload a few pictures. So today it is soccer pic's and tomorrow will be baseball pics. We are keeping our fingers crossed the the other peter will be up and running later this week.

We spent both Friday and Saturday out of town watch baseball and soccer games. Lucky for us Steve was home so he got to go as well. First with Soccer, They won one and lost one. I saw something that I have never seen Megan do. The ball went between her legs for a goal. I do have pictures but I promised not to post them.

Andrew's Visit

DSCF3200
I am going backward in time a little bit. Andrew was here for his spring break the week before Easter. We where really looking forward to seeing him and had a great time. Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate so we could not do much outside. Both of Anthony's game's had been canceled so he didn't even get to see him play.

We had a good visit however. Steve took a day off so we could drive to Idaho and watch one of Anthony's baseball games.

This was what we encountered.

Spring time in Eastern Oregon. Andrew was fine with the snow until the car started sliding. He said "should we put chains on?" Steve's typical answer, "Naaaa, it's not that bad." We ended up turning around and going back home. It didn't matter anyway, the game had been canceled.

Andrew we miss, come back soon.

Soccer

041710 029
Spring Select soccer has started. Megan is happy to be back on the field again. I am glad too, Steve and I love to watch her play.

This year is off with a bang. First off, they beat a team that they have never beaten. Second, Megan earned her first "yellow card" and the teams first. This means that she was warned that she did something really bad.

Let me explain, she was playing forward and getting really aggressive. She ran to the goal to score and the goalie put her hands on the ball. After the goalie has her hands on the ball you are not allowed to kick it. Megan says, that the goalie then dropped the ball and Megan kick it in. Well, the balled bounced off the goalies face then went in. This earned her a yellow card and they tied the game instead of winning.

The next practice, the coach talked about how bad calls do happen. Several people did see the goalie drop the ball including the coach from the other team. Megan then received MVP for the game and will be the team captain for the next game.

Let me say, Megan herself being a goalie, never intended to hurt this girl. She did apologize and make sure she was ok. However, she is the first to get a yellow card on her team and is enjoying the notoriety. My only regret, I was not there to get a picture.

It's been almost a month

I know that it's been all most a month, but lots of things are going on here.

Ok, I have been busy but that's not really the reason I haven't been posting. It's really that rotten friend of Megan's. His name is Michael, and it's all his fault. It started with Facebook. Michael sent me a link to a new game called "Kingdom of Camalot". I really don't need another game to play on Facebook. Believe, I am hooked on a couple of them.

But this game is different. You build a kingdoms, join alliances and talk to other crazy people just like me. You use words like M'lady and M'lord. My favorite part: you build your might and destroy kingdoms that have crossed my path. Ha Ha Ha Ha (evil laugh). I have will have to admit, I love the battle. The upside, Megan plays with me and we are having a blast. The downside, I haven't cooked a decent meal in two weeks. I don't consider grilled cheese sandwiches a good meal, however the kids do.

So I must go, I have already spent to much time away from my kingdom. I have a barbarian camp near me that must be destroyed and I am preparing for war with another alliance. I am not sure when I will post again. Please take my advice, If you value your time, DON'T GO NEAR THIS GAME.
