Soccer season is over, and I think it would be poor form for me to say I'm happy that's it's done (I am). It was lots of fun, but the time commitment can be a bit much--we'd practice twice a week and games on Saturdays. Of course, it's not like I have an overly busy schedule. But Bode did have a lot on his plate--swimming, soccer, piano, violin, and he's started doing science club this semester. Thus, I'm happy for him to have a couple days back to just be a kid. The season wasn't great in terms of our won-loss record, but we did finish strong with a 3-0 victory. Ashley took some action shots of the game (I was too busy coaching), but for some reason, she didn't get any shots with Bode in it :-( She did get plenty of pictures of the boys during the post-game pizza party.
I might have mentioned I did some pickling of my cucumbers from the garden. I've started eating them and find them to be quite tasty. I think I might have overdone the dill on some of the jars, as it's a bit potent.
Today is Halloween, and we just finished trick-or-treating. This morning, we awoke to snow, cold, and ice, and we dreaded the evening. Fortunately, the weather cleared and it warmed up a tad. Bode got a great haul of candy, and we all managed to stay warm.
Bode has a swim meet on Saturday. Sadly, it directly conflicts with the Auburn-Texas A&M game. Ashley has been hoarding her data so she can watch the game on her phone. Hopefully Auburn does well; otherwise, Ashley's phone might end up in the pool in disgust. Pleasant week to all.
