Moving Day

Well, it is done. This past weekend, Carlee and I moved out of our home that we have been living in for the last 5 years. We had been renting...so it was about time to start building some equity as well as time to swim in some debt. We started packing at 3 PM on Friday. We loaded the truck and unloaded a 24 foot truck in 3.5 hours. How did we do it so fast? We had ten 14 year old soccer players pitching in. I never thought I would ever say this out loud, but moving was a blast. It will probably go down as one of those days that I remember for a long time. After moving, we grilled out with the team in the back yard and played 3 v 3 soccer for a couple hours.

I am traveling the remainder of the week so posting may or may not be regular...

to share an additional anecdote from moving day: perhaps the craziest part of the whole experience was that as the boys were being picked up by their parents, they were thanking us! they had enough burgers and soccer in them to think that we had entertained them as opposed to abused them!

Carlee is right. It was crazy that they were thanking us. Not sure if it has anything to do with coaching. :-) These guys just love to hang out together. Team chemistry. Knock on wood.
