Track Season is HERE!

It's Wednesday and the first day of Track practice for the hubby!

We have been able to enjoy him for the past few months with no sport! Thankfully he doesn't have to do basketball! Now is the time we must give him up again but not NEAR as much as during football season {Thank goodness}! And I don't go to the track meets like I do the football games so that is nice! Especially since they are the longest things ever & it's usually cold...Last year one ended at like 2 am.

This is his first year as HEAD track coach and all the responsibilities that come with it! He is very nervous to make sure he does everything right and that his players WIN! I know he will do great and I pray for a smooth season for everyone!

For us track season is difficult because although I usually count spring as our down time its really not. Brayden will start baseball next month and that means practice and games during the week. It's also baseball season for Jason's school and we try to attend most of there games especially home games because all the guys he coaches football with are baseball coaches and many of his football players are on the team. As a coach these kids all become like our own. We try to attend their games in other sports not just football, have them over for dinner and are there for them if they ever need us.

I always say our boys are so lucky to have not just each other but their coaching cousins {other coaches kids} and a whole team of big brothers. In the fall we see the other coaching families and the players far more than we see our own! I am more than thankful that we have such a tight knit group. We have been at schools where the coaching staff didn't get along and it makes life so much harder.

There is a HUGE {total of about 15} group of us here and we are all around the same age with kids the same age and get along GREAT!. For that I am so blessed it makes it a little easier not having any family here but knowing I do have "family" here!

Here is to a busy, fun, hectic spring! Hope everyone has a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
I see the light at the end of the tunnel aka FRIDAY!
