A "Friendly" soccer game

This is Kevin (for those of you who are new--Kevin is in the yellow/blue) in action as he takes on the soccer ball. It was a friendly game against Reading Rages U-13 age group. He was really excited to play...the kid eats, sleeps and breaths soccer. I had lots of fun snapping lots of pictures! I had over 200 some pics that I shot but after much editing I put together a slideshow of 77 pictures.

I have really been in prayer to the Lord about starting my own photography business--specializing in sports photography. I love taking pictures. I feel that I an eye for it and I am wasting my talents of not focusing on using them. I am still going to sub as a teacher's aide in the local school district to keep with a somewhat steady income to help pay for our new van--only 3 more years of car payments then we own it for another 10 years!! LOL But anyway folks I would love to do something with photography--I have a great SLR camera that we got for Christmas a few years ago. And working all the years as a graphic designer gave me an artful eye to crop before you even take the picture. So please pray for me in this area.

Well enjoy life! God has really blessed all of us in so many ways...that we really should not complain.

Sarah Jane finishes soccer season with a goal!

Sarah Jane was actually having lots of fun in the mud on her last soccer game of the spring season. The mud was flying as they ran past...Hannah was getting grossed out by having it splatter all over her as she was sitting...but not our SJ! Sarah Jane finished off the season by scoring a goal. We are really proud of her. She has decided that she would like to try out field hockey in the fall...I am alittle bit worried about giving this girlie a stick! The fact of the matter is whatever your kids try out and give an effort--we as parents need to support them in it. Enjoy these pics. I will be updating everyone on Hannah's Nationals experience after next week. Kevin has made the Perugia Soccer team and we are looking forward to watching him grow in his sport of soccer. Craig and I know that Kevin and Hannah have found their sport that they are passionate about...still awaiting for Sarah Jane to find her passion. She teases us and tells us that she is going to be the next Jane Goodall and live with apes and monkeys...who knows what God has planned for her...His secret is yet to be told. On a personal note: Please continue to pray for my mom who is receiving treatments for her cancer. She is doing really good and is in great spirits (talked to her yesterday). Go MOM Go!...keep up the positive outlook and remember you have the whole wide internet praying for you. I love you lots!
