Where has the time gone????

I was surprised to see how much time had gone by since my last post. It really didn't seem that long ago. To update you on my friend with cancer, he is doing very well. He ended up going through pretty intense radiation treatment. He went through it with flying colors, meaning he had no complications with his treatment.

What a summer we had. It was fun filled with family trips and just hanging out. Brooks is doing very well. He is talking like crazy and it is so fun to communicate with him now.

It should be a good season with all the new players that we have. The sad part about when games start is that I won't be home very often in November and December. Between November 1st and December 17 I will have 27 games between Varsity and JV. That's about a game every other day. It will slow down in January and February. But I love it all, just gets tiresome sometimes.

I will be putting some pictures up from the summer of our trips soon. Hope all is well with the three or four people who read this.
