YEA! I almost feel like a Scrooge, but after a month of doing registrations, followed by scheduling and other administrative "stuff", then 8 weeks of practices and game, I am READY for a break!  

With 4 children on 5 different teams in 4 ages divisions, weeknights and Saturdays are marathons! Practice three nights a week and games usually running from 9am until 4pm on Saturdays...

So, we get to enjoy our evenings again, eat real meals not always prepared in the crockpot or sandwiches on the fly and have Saturdays to spend together however we want to! Not necessarily baking on a soccer field in 90-100 degree heat.

And the grind will start back up in February, when practices will be 4 nights a week and games all day Saturdays. And mama as big as a house as I approach my due date in March...  I'll have to pray to give birth the beginning of the week so I don't miss the Saturday games.
