Summer Happenings

Hello all...I thought I'd take this time to let you know what we've been up to this summer. It's been a busy one due to me working a-LOT and Braedon doing the traveling soccer team-The Minot Lightening and our summer vacation to round it out! I picked up the Bismarck region at The Village due to the gal there having to take some time away to finish her degree. My area covers Minot, South to Bismarck and the rest of the western half of the state of ND. Simply put, alot of traveling!

Braedon decided he wanted to try the traveling soccer team this year, so we signed him up and they decided to attend 4 tournaments this summer.




The last two weeks of June took us to Grand Forks and Fargo. The last two weeks of July took us to Blaine, MN and Fargo, for the championships. Blaine was an awesome experience, we took in a Minnesota Thunder soccer match against Austin, TX. Braedon did some pin trading and got several cool ones...this is a huge, international tournament and was a great experience for all of us.
Instead of staying in a hotel, we stayed at Ham Lake which was about 5 miles from the fields. We rented a cute cabin and enjoyed ourselves and the weekend.









Fargo Championship tourney...final stats: Too Many losses - 1 WIN!







During the 2 week break in July, we headed south to Texas for some much needed R & R. We stayed in McAllen and had a great time! All of Jason's siblings were there, which made his mother very happy to have all her "kids" back home! We took a family picture to mark the occasion. I got some much needed "sun" time and the kids had alot of pool/Gulf time too! It was one of the best family vacations thus far! All in all, we've had a fun filled summer and it's not even over yet.
