Cool

I had a rough day at work the other day. I really hate Covid and all the contact tracing and the angst that comes with it. Parents overreact and then kids are nervous...it’s just causing a mess. And then we had a substitute that...well, it was just a rough day. 

To make it better, someone gave me this...

a package of Starburst Duo. They are amazing! Each one is a combo of two flavors. It’s not that amazing to some people but when you are having a bad day, it really is.

State soccer

Courtney is on jv and they can only have 20 girls on the roster so she isn’t playing in the post seasons games, but she gets to go watch and support.

This is a pic of Courtney (14) and Sammie (7) supporting their team. The team handily won over Bear River on Saturday so they play this Wednesday (14th) in Logan. Courtney isn’t going to travel with them because she has chemistry lab that day and doesn’t want to miss it (plus it would be a super long day!) but she will be cheering from home. Logan is a good team so hopefully Snow Canyon will show up ready to play.

Last game

Courtney had her last soccer game of the season! They beat Cedar High and it was a good game. We are super happy that they were able to finish the season. Playoffs begin this weekend and, depending on Covid restrictions, they may take JV with them. So we aren’t quite finished with the season but it’s getting close.

We had to do the traditional Courtney and Sammie picture.

Cute soccer Courtney


The JV team (Courtney is front row, 4th from left):




Their coach, Brent, is the one in this pic. We didn’t get any with him in it.

Good driving!

Courtney drove home from the soccer game last week and parked the car in the garage as usual. It was dark so she didn’t notice anything unique. The next morning when Bryan went out to get in his truck to go to work he saw this...

a squished flat scorpion with tire marks around it! Courtney ran over the scorpion the night before when she parked in the garage. Crazy but I’m glad she had great aim in the dark!!

Bag

Courtney loves all things Nike. She found a Nike bag on sale and just couldn’t pass it up. She “loved” the colors and it wasn’t until she got the bag and it fell next to her cleats that she realized why she loves it so much....

They are the same color!!!!

Soccer quilt

We started this quilt of Courtney’s old soccer jerseys last year but finally finished it!! You can tell how happy Courtney is to have it done.

Up until Jersey #30, the number of the Jersey was Courtney’s age! And a lot of the early ones were when she was coached by Bryan. So it was a fun project.

Man down!!

I was vacuuming the office last Friday when I accidentally vacuumed up Bryan’s earphones. 😳😬

Courtney heard my gasp and the loud banging noise in the vaccine and came running. “Man down!” I hurried and stopped the vacuum then had to unravel the cord from the brush. Courtney and I were laughing so hard.

We hurried and went to Target to buy some replacements. Courtney made a sign (“Man down but reinforcements have arrived”) and we gave the replacements to Bryan.
