Yeah 4 soccer!!!
Game # 1 - tied 2-2
So glad to be watching Bryan play soccer again. After a late start because of hurricane Gustav and then the first 2 games cancelled due to hurricane Ike, soccer is on. We have 2 games under our belt both ending in ties. Our 1st game the team was short handed and after playing with no subs our boys played hard and tied 2 to 2. (Bryan scored one of our two goals.) For our second game we tied 1 to 1 with our boys playing hard and fast. They kept the ball on our end of the field for most of the 1st half but just couldn't pull off a win. Good effort made by our team. I just love watching Bryan play sports.

GO PUMAS GO!!!
I am also glad to say that Carson has also signed up to play soccer again this year. We've only been able to make it to one of her 2 games because Carson & Bryan's game last weekend was at the same time. I love watching the kids play in the sports they enjoy.
Carson is in position to give it a good kick.
Carson is #10
After all that running it's time for a spritz with the water fan.

Life back to normal?
Since my last blog things have been absolutely crazy. We are finally getting into a school year routine after 2 evacuations with one terrible storm that wreaked havoc in my hometown and even worse in some surrounding areas. We are blessed to have very minimal damage to our home and our places of work. The hardest we got hit is financially but can't complain after seeing the total losses of others in our area.
After just 5 days of school we left on Saturday, August 30th at 7pm and headed to my dad's home in Austin to evacuate from Hurricane Gustav. We arrived at 3am after an 8 hour drive that should normally take 4 to 5 hours. We had what some are now calling a "HURRICATION." On Sunday we went swimming in a local neighborhood pool (Olympic size pool with 2 lifeguards) and it was free. We then went to a popular Mexican restaurant called Chuy's for dinner and really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. On Monday (which was Bryan's 10th birthday & Labor Day) we toured the State Capital and from there a trip to the ER (a family member got really ill) then on to Dave & Busters to celebrate Bryan's birthday with food and games. We returned to Beaumont on Tuesday evening after 7 hour trip home. Then after just 5 more days in school off to Louisiana on Thursday, September 11th to escape Hurricane Ike. Well, as I said above Ike wreaked havoc in my town so we were not able to return home for 9 days. Again during this "HURRICATION" we had a family member (not the same one) make a trip to the ER. This time it was very serious and after 4 days in ICU and another 3 more days in the hospital she was released to return home. (Oh - did I mention that during our evacuation for Hurricane Rita back in 2005 there was also a trip to the ER with yet another one of my family members for a broken arm??? - Should we just stay in Beaumont for the next one?)
Back at home we had another week out of school before BISD was ready for students but it was back to work for mom & dad. The kids started back to school on 9/29 and just had 5 more days of school before the end of the 1st 6 week grading period (total of only 15 days in class).
So, LIFE BACK TO NORMAL???...as much as it can be with things still in disarray in our town. We are back to work & school, ballet classes & soccer games, church & Wee Wacky. Glad to be in our family routine. Hope and pray that things will stay this way.

Wish we had pools like this in our neighborhood.
