Sports, sports, and more sports.

Thank you for the V-gift, blognmomma! :-)

I swear, my life has completely turned into cookies-cookies-cookies. It's craziness, but I absolutely love it. It is so fun to finish each new batch and feel such accomplishment. I wouldn't trade anything right now!

Philip and I have been watching Psych for the last month. We'd never seen the show before, and we started in on the Pilot episode through Netflix. We've now watched all 79 episodes, just finishing last night. In the first week or so, we watched one or two episodes a night, but here at the end, we were watching 7-8 episodes each night he was off. It's so funny, and such a well-written, engaging show. I love the 80's-culture references sprinkled throughout, too. It has been a very enjoyable time together.

Jack's indoor soccer season finished tonight with their last game, and it caught me by surprise. I thought they still had two games next week, so I hadn't prepared an end-of-season treat for him to share. Luckily, the team will be meeting for a pizza party next Tuesday night, and I'll bring treats then. He ended up being one of two 9-year-olds (the other was his close buddy, Bryce) selected to play in the 10-12-year-old teams, and after speaking with the coordinators, we decided to keep him in the higher age group. She assured me that he had tested higher than most kids in skills assessment, and so we held our breath...

It was definitely the best choice! He had a rockin' season, and he found a true love and calling in playing goalie as a dedicated position. He was ON FIRE in many of his games, and I've never seen him play so hard. I can't wait for spring (outdoor) season to start in late April!

Meanwhile, A.J. begins track season in about two weeks, and it will be his first experience with that. He's excited about it, and he's become so lean lately. I suppose that's what growing 6" in 16 months will do to a guy, right?! It will be a very busy next few months between the two of their sports schedules, for sure.
