Big Juicy Ants

We went to see Indiana Jones. It was funny. There was one icky part with big juicy ants. The reviews are right in only giving it a B+ but it was entertaining which is why you go to see a movie anyway. Harrison Ford is looking very old but he can still pull it off.


Saturday Devan spent Saturday in the parking lot of the mall. DC shoes (skater shoe brand) hosted this thing called the Backyard BBQ. There was a skate team, and a bike team and they had a motocross team. A band played and it was all free. It was very hot that day but he had so much fun he didn't notice the heat.


Jordan hung out with a friend by the pool. She's trying really hard to get rid of her soccer tan. She has really tan knees and has had for the last 5 or more years. Now that her legs are getting so defined from going to training, she wants to get rid of the crazy tan so she can wear shorts and not be self conscious.

Jordan is getting a new soccer coach next year. She will have a guy coach which she likes better. Some of the girls will be in for a rude awakening but this guy seems like he will run the team like it should be. He is organized for one thing - YAY!!! He will turn this program around and not let the girls run around doing whatever they want. While Jordan will have to work really hard to get on Varsity next year (there are 11 seniors) she has a very good chance because this guy rewards hard work. He also told the girls that just because they are on varsity doesn't mean that their position is set in stone, if someone on JV is working their butt off and a varsity player isn't... This guy was an assistant coach for football but his real passion is soccer. He is having the girls do 10 days of conditioning before tryouts. Then they will be doing a camp this summer AND he is going to keep them working on their conditioning all throughout the season, not just for the beginning. He's smart and has a goal for the program and even has a plan to achieve that goal. He's going to be a coach, not a friend so some girls will hate it, Jordan is so excited. Her old coach is leaving due to money constraints. She lives really far away and can't afford the gas and the extra trips she would have to make this summer. There is something going on that her family needs a large sum of money so she can't afford to be driving the 80 or more miles each day during the summer. I'm not sure but when she told the girls she was resigning it sounds like she might be leaving the school as well. Jordan and I feel a little jerky for being glad she's leaving when she's doing it because of bad personal circumstances. Jerk or not, I'm sure those feelings will dissipate as the season goes on and will be completely obliterated if they go to state. :o
