Multi tasking- time away and a soccer tournament!

Reluctant subject- Johnny does not enjoy it (only barely tolerates it) when I pull out my camera!

The boys made some friends!

Don't ya thing this would look nice in my dining room! ;-)

The beach and a low lying cloud covering the island!

The Coronado! No, we are not staying there!

Hubby and I are in San Diego with Johnny and his soccer team. This time together and being able to watch Johnny play soccer has really been a treat for us! As the family grows it is difficult to get to every thing so we really appreciate it when we can be at the events!

We have been able to converse without interruption -which we are enjoying but not planning to get used to it! It is such a new concept for us to be able to finish a thought!

It was very hard for me to leave our little girls. Hubby and I have never left at the same time. Sarah was not too keen on it but she managed her emotions well. She had many questions, we went over and over the schedule and reassured her many times. Big sissy Kate, boyfriend Devan and my friend Karen are taking care of them. They are in good hands!

The first night away I felt pangs of homesickness but the weekend has gone by fast and we will be heading home soon. The boys have won their first two games and need to win or tie this next one to continue! San Diego's weather is perfect! What a joy to be able to be outside and be comfortable!

In the middle of the night we got a telephone call- babysitter Kate has the stomach flu- what a bummer. The poor dear is miserable. We are hoping and praying she feels better soon.

It did cross my mind that those dreaded stomach flu germs are now in the house- oh, ugh and yuck! I was hoping to avoid that this year but we will see...
