Soccer, Soccer and more Soccer

Soccer season is in full swing....(SIGH!) This picture of Alivia is before her first practice.

We were at the soccer field Saturday from 7:15am to about 2:30pm. Aly's game was at 8am, Abby's at 11am and Alivia's at 1pm. Aly's team won 9-0, Abby's team lost 5-3 and who knows about Alivia's team. At that young age, they don't keep score.

My Grandpa had 8 inches of his colon removed Saturday because they found more cancer in his colon. They also removed a tumor out of one of his lymph nodes. He is not out of the woods yet but is doing much better than all the doctors expected him to. It has been an emotinal rollercoaster for all of us.

The best part of this whole deal is that my 2 uncles stayed with us for a week. That never happens since the majority of our family are right here in Vegas. I was thrilled to have them stay with us, just wish the circumstances were a little different.

Ugh, I could not spend that many hours at games! Hope your grandpa can recover well.

Sounds like you had a pretty busy Saturday. I don't know how you can stay out there in the heat that long, I couldn't do it. I hope your grandpa is doing ok.

Our Saturdays are pretty much useless for the next 2 months too. Between the 2 boys our Saturdays are totally broken up. Last weekend we had 9:15 and 5:15 games...talk about break up your day! At least your girls are all excited about it. And GOOD FOR ALYSON for creaming the other team so badly!
