This is kind of a random post, but a friend sent me this picture and I thought it was hilarious so I had to share it. Okay, maybe it's not hilarious to anyone else, but oh boy am I glad I am not 18 anymore. This was one of the teams I played for since I was 12, and 17 of us went on to play college soccer, thanks to two of the best coaches I have ever met. This makes me miss soccer. I miss the competition, the game, the girls, but even more so, having something to work hard towards. I run several miles every morning and lift a few times a week but it all seems pretty pointless without the goal of beating someone at it. I've always worked out to become a better athlete and now I'm just......I don't know what I am now, I guess just an exerciser. Oh well, I still enjoy it at least.
Here's a pic of Ben in front of the Ferrari that he "won," or so he has been telling people. We were passing this Ferrari dealership and he just HAD to stop and take some pictures. Funny boy. Look at how happy he is! ha
We were able to go to a Rangers baseball game a couple weeks back. They were playing the Seattle Mariners so Ben was cheering against the Rangers the entire time. It made me a little nervous at first; I know how these Texans are about football and I wasn't sure if it was the same with baseball, but no fights broke out.

Looks like you two are enjoying Texas! We miss you in C-Town. I know how you feel with the whole working out thing. That's why you need to have a baby so then you work out to lose weight! hahaha
