No rest for the Weary

It's just been an adrenalin rush after another for the last few weeks. 

First the cruise, followed by the wedding, then Hallie's club team winning at the Regional tournament.  One rush after another. 

Then you go home.  And crash. 

I haven't talked about the lovelies lately.. They are doing good, and have hung out with their extraordinary babysitter whilst I've been traveling.   They are doing great, and improving every day.  The adoption is moving forward, and it is stuck somewhere in the red tape area, but everyone assures me that by July we should be final.

Lovely has kind of started gaining weight again.. since sports has stopped she has become a #1 couch potato.  I am racking my brain for activities to keep her busy this summer.  LB will attend his fun camp (Lovely is too old, though mature wise she would fit in just fine) and BB will continue his quest for kindergarten before he's 8.  That's our goal. 

Hallie is driving, and seriously, I cannot wait for her to get her real DL, so I can have a break from her massive running.

This summer she will be...

SEE IF YOU CAN KEEP UP

Going to 3x a week practice for club volleyball, preparing for nationals the 3rd week of June in Minnesota (in the evening)

Going to daily practice in the early morning for beach volleyball.....and attending tournaments every weekend with her  beach partner Ericka.

Attending school volleyball practice in the late morning-early afternoon probably 4 x a week. 

Then in July she will fit somewhere in the mix, practice for High Performance (she tried out at regionals for a place on the team, along with all the other girls in OK) and made the team!  They practice at UCO or MACU in a camp setting for a couple of weeks, then do a tournament against the other states High Performance teams in July.  Thankfully this year the tournament is in Tulsa (last year was Ft Lauderdale) and maybe more people can come and watch. 

So, I'm watering my money tree.   And getting a lot of rest. 

I'm going to need it.
