Sheeeeeeeshhhhh! I know, I know, I promised last time I'd be better at posting, but I have been swamped so much that I haven't had the time to breathe! I've been so busy, I now even bring my personal laptop to school to get work done during lunch, snack, recess, whatever minutes I have to spare!!! Anywho, I have been on the go go go lately- and yes I have pictures to share and talk about these adventures!
First up was Virginia Tech a couple weekends ago- now as we all know I am a teacher and a coach, so I left afterschool on a Friday and was supposed to take one of my players with me to see the campus, attend a football game and hang out with the basketball staff, BUT she cancelled so I still went and made it a weekend trip with the boy. Let me say, he enjoyed the visit probably more then I did.. So Friday night we drove, boy was it loooooonnnnggg and stayed in Roanoke at a hotel where ironically the football team stayed at! It was super gorg!!!
We got up early the next morning to head to their open gym and facility tour, golly was everything nice! I had a great day, one of their assistants is a friend of mine and we laughed all darn day!
Next, we headed over to the football stadium to catch the game- our seats were PERFECT, 45 yd line, couple rows up... only downside was that it downpoured at halftime and we had to abandon ship!!
We said our goodbyes to the staff and quickly ran into the bookstore where I HAD to try on this little goody! :) hehehe
OK....so last weekend, we were in town but Saturday was all kinds of CRAZYYYYY! We started out the day heading to the Farmer's Market to pick up some produce, bread and other seasonal goodies... I drool over these flowers every time... Aren't they beautifullllll?!?!
Afterwards we bolted down to my fall league game, to the boy's football game and then we headed to FedEx Field... where MY REDSKINS play to meet my friend Danielle... the WVU Superfan for the WVU vs. James Madison football game. We had a blast... who cares our tickets were like a million miles high in the sky, we had a great Saturday night watching those Mountaineers stomp JMU!
The marching bands of these teams were EXTREME!! If I had any ounce of musical ability in me, I'm sure I'd appreciate it more, but their performance and choreography was NUTS!!
I was dead dog tired when we got home, I fell right to sleep and was so thankful my basketball duties were done for the weekend... the boy had to get up though for his morning workout and yowzerss... was he slowww moving! He knew how bad I wanted those flowers from the market that on his way home from the gym he brought me some "flowers to tie you over till you get your real ones at the market" :) I was a happy girl!
So that was my last few weekends in a nutshell, even though it felt like a novel!!!!
This past week was all kinds of crazy too...but I'm gonna promise from here on forward that I'll be a better poster!!!!! :) .... or at least I'll try! The boy is having his wisdom teeth pulled Tuesday, so he's been hurting... gonna be a good girlfriend and make him some baked ziti... his favorite!
I wish weekends and Football Sundays would last foreverrrrrrr! Have a great week everyone!
