After an almost 5 hour rain delay, my Tigers dropped game 3 of the ALDS. The Mariners beat them 8-4 yesterday. If they lose this afternoon, they are done. If they win, they still have to take game 5. I am still hopeful for them to advance to the ALCS. I doesn't look good, though. … Continue reading Week in Review – We Need Two

What’s Been Going On
This past weekend was a busy one. Once again Ella had soccer. Watching these gals play is so fun. I'm not sure why they all want to be the goalie. At one point over half the team was in front of the goal. Ella had her back to the other team because she was chatting … Continue reading What’s Been Going On

Three years later, and that whirlwind has yet to slow down! Right from the get go, he's kept up on our toes … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback

The communication prior to the actually first day was a mess. Do we need a uniform or not? Will the coach be there or not? It was not very … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments
