Update to the Update..
The doctor's office called today with the ultrasound results. Everything looks good except for the bruising, which is mild. Thankfully there is no other damage. It will still knock him out of his tournament this weekend, and believe me, he is TICKED about that! At least he can harass his uncles during the game on Saturday morning! :)

Update
I took Josh in to see our family doctor today. He has still been complaining of pain, and since our doctor is back in town, I thought that I would let her check him out. Turns out today that he had blood in his urine, and he is still very tender, so she sent him for an ultrasound. We won't hear back from it for a day or two. She did tell him no soccer for another week, which is killing him. He was able to pacify himself with missing last weekend because he knew that he had Area Tournaments this weekend, but now that he still can't play, he is pretty upset. It's not helping matters that the first game his team plays on Saturday is against his uncles' team!
I'll update once we hear back from the ultrasound.

Someone Turn the Heat On!!
I am such a wimp! I HATE cold weather. And it's not like 52 is that cold, either, but I've been FREEZING all day. I don't think that I could live any further north. I'd never survive!

Recap of the day
Today was the last day of Soccer Regional Tournaments. All 3 kiddos had games today... 2 were playing for championships, one was playing to stay alive.
Kyle had the first game. They had to win their game, and have another team in their division lose in order to capture 3rd place and move on to the Area Tournament. It wasn't looking too good for the Titans at half-time... they were down 2-0. Thankfully they came back, though, and won the game 3-2!! We were so excited for them. Now they wait until tonight to hear how the other team did. No matter what happens, they played a great season, and Kyle was challenged in a new position (midfielder) and has done well.
Megan had the next game of the day. They went up against a team that they lost to pretty badly earlier in the year. (And may I just say, they had REALLY annoying parents! It really felt like there was a mob-mentality going on on the sidelines. Made me really uncomfortable for our girls.) Megan played in goal the whole game, and even though her team lost 2-0, she did a great job. The goals scored on her were just flat-out good goals, and there wasn't really anything she could have done to stop them. She had a lot of fantastic saves, though, so that is something for her to be really proud of. The Sea Turtles finished 2nd in the Region, and they will move on to the Area Tournament in 2 weeks.
Josh's team had our last game of the day, and he was really steamed that he couldn't be out on the field playing with his teammates. He did his fair share of begging and pleading, but to no avail... I stayed strong and wouldn't give in. He did get to sit on the sidelines with his team, and he was their sub monitor for the game. This one didn't turn out in their favor, they lost 2-1, their second loss of the season. They knew that they would be going on to Area, win or lose, so Josh is taking consolation in the fact that he will be playing next weekend. He is also looking forward to the possibility of facing his uncles again on the soccer field.
So, we have at least 2 more weekends of soccer... maybe more if someone happens to move on to State. I'm very thankful that the weather turned out to be nicer than I expected it to. The sun helped to warm things up very well, even if the wind still had a chill to it. Hopefully we will be blessed with great weather the next few weekends!

Mixed Emotions
Have you ever been so happy and so sad all at the same time? That is how I am feeling tonight. At 4:45 PM tonight, my oldest went out on her very first date!!! I am so happy for her, because her first date is with exactly who she wanted it to be with; but so sad because she is growing up way too fast! How can she be old enough for this already? NO!!!! I want time to rewind, and her to be that little girl again who wouldn't let go of my hand when we walked out of the house. She has grown into such a beautiful, smart, funny, and dependable young woman. I can't stand the thoughts of her leaving home in another 2 years. That is just not enough time to spend with her!!!
Ok... so even though she is going to be mad at me, I have to post this picture. What kind of mom would I be if I didn't document this occassion with a picture (and a blog post!)?
They went to see High School Musical 3 tonight, so they both had to wear red! :)
