I have been wanting to share this picture for a while now
and since we are headed back,
why not share it now?
We went to Springfield the last weekend of spring break
because Matt went to tryout for their PDL soccer team.
If you don't know what PDL is, you can read about it
Anyways, we left on a beautiful Friday afternoon.
You probably remember that Friday,
we hadn't seen sun in like forever and
everyone broke out their shorts and rolled the windows down.
It was that kind of day.
(Well we opened the sun roof and snapped a picture
as we were headed out.
Please ignore Matt's crazy hair, he did get a
haircut the other day.)

Before we left both of our parents were worried
because the day before the weather men were saying
a winter storm was going to hit.
Apparently it was going to as bad as the Christmas Eve Blizzard.
And I know how bad that storm was because I was in it.
My uncle just HAD to go to the mall to get some last minute Christmas gifts.
Well a 2 hour trip turned into 6,
But that is a whole other story that I won't get into today.
Anyways, we checked the weather to Springfield
and all they were gonna get was some rain maybe sleet.
No big deal.
So Saturday morning we woke up to rain,
Matt came back from the first try out drenched.
It rained all day and in the afternoon, evening it started to sleet.
Luckily his evening tryout got moved inside.
After that we went to dinner and that is when it started snowing.
It was really pretty so I just had to take a picture!
But we are headed back to Springfield tomorrow
because Matt got the call back to play in a scrimmage.
I am so excited for him, although if he makes the team
that means a summer without him.
Luckily the season isn't too long
so he would be back after the 4th of July!
Just keep your fingers crossed he does well!!
one last picture.
This is one of the bridges from the on and off ramp,
does this not confuse you?
Good Luck Matt!
