Big Decision

First, the surgery went well.  So far, so good.  It was only yesterday and I am going nuts to get out of the house!  The only pain is the pain from being surgery sore, which is so much less than the gallbladder pain!  I will be ready to hit the road tomorrow, somewhere, anywhere!

Ok, this is not really a big decision in the whole scheme of life, but for the Foxx family, it was a big decision!  We decided not to sign the boys up for summer baseball this year.  We have spent so many hours the last six summers running to ball games.  The last three with two boys on teams.  We were looking at three boys on teams this year!   We just couldn’t do it.  The last year has been soooo crazy for our little family, that we just needed some time to hang out.  Of course we haven’t been doing much hanging out, but we could if we wanted to!  The boys were really ok with the decision.  Once we told them and they realized they would be able to do other things with their time, they started to get excited!  For example, last year we only went swimming one time!  Granted, we lived in Iowa where the swimming season is very short, but the baseball schedule didn’t help either!  When we made the decision, the boys were also in the middle of spring flag football, so things were crazy anyway, adding baseball to the mix did not appeal to anyone!  I am excited to see what the boys choose to do with their summer.  I am personally glad that we are not going to be doing the same thing over and over!  Stay tuned!

I think it's so important to take a break from activities from time to time. It seems to renew energy and motivation. I can't wait to help you guys spend some of that down time!! It won't be long!
