I had this nice little post written about Cameron making the Surfside Middle School soccer team but blogger went on the fritz and I lost the post and I just don't have the energy to start over.
Given that, here is the short story:
Cameron missed the first day of tryouts because he was attacked by killer ants during warm ups. I would estimate that there was at least 40 kids trying out. He made the first cut and did his best to vie for a spot on the team. Those 8th grade boys were HUGE compared to my little 6th grade Cameron. Anyway...Cameron ended up being one of the few 6th grade boys chosen for the team. I think there were 4 total. YEAH for Cameron!!!
How was his first day of practice as a Surfside Soccer Shark? It got rained out, of course!
Today Cameron also learned that he was one of the top 6th graders to be selected to participate in the Math Counts Competition next month. YEAH AGAIN!
Wow...what a day!!!

Dining Room
Okay, the edging isn't quite done, but here's our "new" dining room. I like the color so much better and can't wait until I can carry it over into the hallway and the living area. If I behave, maybe Mike will let me start next weekend.

Here I Am
Yup. Still around. These two kids are keeping us busy! Soccer here. Soccer there. Tennis over here and oh yeah, a little bit of Odyssey of the Mind, too. Whew. I need a nap.
We had a houseful of company last weekend and my house is a mess. I attempted to start painting our dining room two weeks ago and it's still not finished. I keep doing the bewitched twitching of my nose and nothing's happening. A little help here???
I turned 31 this past weekend. Wow. I think I'm suppose to feel old or something but I really don't. I've been blessed with a wonderful husband and two kids that are normally up to no good. What else could I ask for? Oh yeah..that nap!!!
