Soccer Camp and Birthdays

We made it back home on Friday.. yay!!! We had a blast on vacation, and it was wonderful spending time with family.... but there's just something to be said for sleeping in your own bed.

So, here we are on day 2 of soccer camp. Logan is having a blast. He's learning new skills. He thinks his coach is "really cool."

Speaking of his coach, he's staying with us this week. He arrived on Sunday. We've thoroughly enjoyed having him here. And he's learning some great southern vocabulary. Like "hiney." As in, "Colleen, put your hiney in that chair and eat your dinner." He told me yesterday evening that he had a hard time keeping a straight face, but knew he must since I was getting on to her - but I don't think he used the phrase "getting on to." I can't remember what he said. Anyway, we've enjoyed having him here, and I know the kids are going to be sad when he moves on to the next soccer camp at the end of this week.

We've got Logan's birthday coming up tomorrow. Can't believe my baby boy is going to be 10. When the heck did that happen? (Duh, ten years ago.... right?) I still have trouble believing how fast they are both growing up. Colleen turned six last week, and I think she's going on 16. And then there is "The Big One." Patrick is going to be 40 in a few days. Can't believe everyone around me is getting old. HAHA

I'll try to snap some photos this week and share. Patrick's planning on taking the camera up to soccer camp and getting a few there, and we have outings planned all week with the other coaches and host families - not to mention Logan's party on Friday! There will be plenty of picture-taking opportunities. I just need to remember to take the pictures.
