Gone for way too long

 So, I know we have all been through so much! However, now that life is becoming somewhat livable let us hear it!! My kids and husband were out of school and work for what felt like forever. 

Being a teacher through the pandemic was crazy!!! Being a mom was even more craziness! I not only had to make sure my children got their work done during the day while trying to work from home but I had never known the drag of 6 yes 6 computers going all at once. Thankfully, one of my kids didn't have google meets so when her work was done she was done which was usually around 10am. The kids missed their friends, going places, and having a life as much as we did especially through sports. 

Fast forward to winter where yay for basketball! It sucked watching my asthmatic child try her hardest to play with a mask on knowing she had to take many breaks because it was killing her to run, jump and breathe through a mask but we done it. Then came high school soccer which anyone who truly knows me knows I love to watch my girls play. Soccer even though outdoors the kids had to wear masks. Yep, you read that right. These poor girls were playing in 100 degree weather, wearing a mask and running that field. They never once gave up which was outstanding. Well, as for my family we learned that high school soccer and  8u softball run together. My summer ended with my oldest playing for the regionals in soccer and my 8yr old playing for 3rd place in the tournament. Neither team won a trophy but my golly these kids won back a major piece of their lives!!

Now we are back in school full time somewhat. Soccer for my 8yr old is going pretty well; my oldest (15) is the assistant coach of the 3/4 and 5/6 grade teams. She is loving it but realizing everything has it's challenges. She is also refereeing some games to learn the experiences that they have to go through. 

I also got to be the one to take my cousins maternity photos, another families maternity photos, a gender reveal session,  a few 8th grade photos, my kids graduation from PK & 8th grade photos, and some different Prom photos, from over the summer, newborn and engagement photos which was amazing!  

I added a few photos from over the year.
