Sometimes our crazy
sports-filled life leads us
on unexpected
adventure and travel.
The girls play on
a soccer team
lucky enough to have
landed in the quarterfinals
of virginia state cup soccer.
Whoo hoo.
What exactly does that mean?
Virginia Beach for the night...
this is the beach cottage we stayed.
of these 3-bedroom bad boys
right smack dab on the beach.
One of the many perks of being a military family...
prime beach front real estate
owned and operated by the US military
available to miltary families.
Another whoo hoo.
We couldn't believe this
place was all ours to enjoy...
for the next 19 hours.
Oh.
If only we could have stayed a week.
Drat.
we were actually on the balcony
overlooking Mr. Atlantic Ocean.
to an early morning beach walk
Don't tell coach,
this is what we do before a big game.
Play in the sand!
Mr. Man even made a surprise late night
visit to see the girls in action.
oh so official.
A local, she made the drive to the
sports center for a quick girl gab session.
Just like not a day gone by
as we chatted it up
on the side lines.
Love you, Larry.
another family from our SD days
now, VB locals,
ALSO
made the trek out to the sports center
to reconnect.
We so felt the love.
As many of you sports families know,
this is the stuff life is made out of.
I hope the girls always think fondly
of all those practices and coo coo schedules.
It pays off.
Would love any stories you might have
of your family sports adventures.
