All right my dear bloggy friends, I'm taking a few days off from this wonderful bloggy world to take my boys to their final gymnastics meet of the season! Regionals! Wish them luck! The season is almost officially over! Can I get an "AAAMMMMEEEEENNNNN!"
There are few things in life that bring me greater joy than watching my awesome boys competing in this wonderful sport and watching all their hard work being rewarded....if not with the bling of metals and trophies than with the knowledge that they gave it their best shot. BUT! Every year at this time of year I am ever so grateful to have the season come to an end! All this travelling just inevitably burns my ass out! Even the boys have said that they can't wait till this is over so they can start working on new skills....as the entire 5 months of meet season are completely consumed with mastering and perfecting their current level skills. The post meet season is always a fun and exciting time for them in practice.
So I have a hefty "to-do" list to prepare for our last road trip. I won't be able to read or comment on anyone's blogs for the next few days. I'll be back on Monday to get updated. I'll miss you! I think I'll go through blog withdrawal....I already feel a headache coming on....uh-oh...and here come the hives...and geez my ass is tingling....oh wait...that's probably just the blood circulation returning......Yeah, this blog hiatus is probably a good thing.....
One last Smurfette conversation before I go:
Smurfette: "Mommy I changed my mind...when I grow up I don't want to be Hannah Montana anymore...when I grow up I want to be God. I'll make my own world where cats can drive cars and kids can fly like birds."
Me: "Way to shoot for stars baby!"
I figured she'd learn eventually that God's position is already taken with little to no chance of early retirement...so why crush her dreams now!
BTW - Slept a little better last night...that second glass of wine went a long way. God Bless Two Buck Chuck!

That is awesome. I LOVE watching gymnastics. They must be really good.
I totally understand loving the end of the season for any and all sports....Like my sons baseball season...which never friggin' ends. There's the regular season, then Allstars...oh and wait......here comes fall ball,what about travel ball and that leads up right into the regular season!
I'd like to state for the record, just because I majored in P.E. (yes, I did) doesn't mean I wanted to watch sports, EVERYDAY of my life.
Oh did I mention that while this is all going on, he plays basketball, too.
So do both girls.
oh yeah, and track...that's big at our house too.
Not to mention ESPN is always on some television....
Can I come over for some two buck chuck?.....I'll stop at Trader Joes on my way over!
Have a great trip!
And good luck to the boys.
Have a great trip and take pictures! I wanna see! Best of luck to the boys.
BTW, how did they get started in gymnastics? And when did they start? Inquiring minds want to know!
