a little update of sorts.

We had a whirlwind of a month with 2 weeks in Florida, then 1 week in Tennessee.
It's been so fun and such a great summer so far.
We are home now for the rest of summer and that is exciting too.
This year we didn't come home to a crazy and busy schedule awaiting Todd.

Todd has decided to step away from his girls volleyball head coaching position.
Shortly after the boys season ended in June, he started to contemplate the idea of a change. 
A change of pace being the largest reason in play.  With two head coaching jobs (both in different school districts) it made the balance of two different programs to carry, budgets to balance, athletic directors and secretaries and transportation contacts, etc. to contact and work with regularly, different school schedules with early morning meetings, planning orientations and parent nights and regular correspondence with parents of the entire program throughout the year (I think you get the idea).  One thing many people may not realize is that as a head coach, yes the bulk of your work is a seasonal thing, but you are still doing work for that position all year long.
While Todd handled and carried them both beautifully, it is a lot.
A change of pace sounded great, and when the opportunity for an assistant girls volleyball position opened at the school he is head coach for the boys, it just seemed meant to be at this time.

So what is the just of all of this?
Well, he still coaches both during the girls and boys seasons (all in one school district now - a wonderful district that we love).
Boys season in the spring remains the same as head coach.
Girls season in the fall as an assistant coach at a new school, where he can still do what he loves but his amount of responsibilities has dropped significantly.

Most importantly from it all this little family will get more time to spend together. :)  Yay!

 
In other updates, I am staying busy with some delicious cake pop making!
 
 
and taking pictures of cutie patooties!
 



and as soon as we arrived home from our month long adventure, we dove into some projects at home.
Did you really expect anything different? :)

Many updates to be posted soon on the DIY page with painting, a bookshelf renovation, three light fixture changes, completion of our foyer/entryway, another board and batten project, artwork for a little girls bedroom, a tufted headboard, a farmhouse table build and more...
