Fun in Frisco

Camden's soccer team was scheduled to play in Frisco this weekend. We had been looking forward to going because we had plans to see Mason and Grace. As of Thursday night at soccer practice, Camden was still not certain if he felt comfortable enough to play. On Friday, he finally decided he felt he could play so he and I headed to Frisco Friday night. We woke up Saturday morning and headed to the soccer fields. It was an overcast and extremely windy day.  Mason and Grace came and watched him play. I found myself holding my breath a few times while he was playing for fear he would further injure his arm. At one point, another player tripped him and he went falling to the ground, but fortunately he slid head first instead of falling directly on his arm.

The soccer field we played at was literally one mile from the Dude Perfect warehouse. We have watched more Dude Perfect videos than I care to admit and seen them live, so it was only fitting that we took a picture in front of their warehouse.

We spent the rest of the afternoon with Mason and Grace. Grace is currently a graduate student at Texas A&M Commerce where she is working on pursuing a career as a Licensed Specialist in School Psychology (LSSP). While Mason and I hung out, Camden was able to help her out with one of her classes by taking a lengthy IQ test. Afterwards we went out to dinner with them and then headed to our hotel. Camden hung out with his friends at the hotel, while I relaxed in the room.

We got up the next morning and headed to a different soccer field. The sun was out and it was not as windy, so was a bit more enjoyable to watch. Afterwards we headed home. While we were in Frisco, Shane and Casen headed to Franklin Saturday for a baseball tournament. Since their games were late Saturday evening and then early Sunday morning, they spent the night in College Station. Surprisingly, Camden and I made it home before they did.

Today was the solar eclipse. If the weather was good, we were supposed to get a very good view of it. Unfortunately, it was rainy and overcast through most of the eclipse. We did go outside to see if we could see anything exciting, but it wasn't until later when we were back in our office that we got a glimpse of it out of our window.

It is a shame we didn't get an amazing look at the solar eclipse. But Lord willing, maybe we will get a good view of the next solar eclipse in August 2044.
