so i don't want to write volumes and volumes in this entry, but its been so long since i've written anything, that its going to be hard to shave everything down to the essentials.

volleyball has finally ended.  my team made it to state for the second time in the 100 year history of the school.  the first time was last year, so i don't take full responsibility, but we did better this year than last.  all that's been on my mind the past three months is volleyball so i'll say no more on that subject.  now that the season is over i can actually focus on my classes.  i'm actually really looking forward to that. 

we just got back from california for thanksgiving.  as much as i miss living overseas and traveling to tropical paradises for vacation, its really fun to see zoe get to know her cousins.  don't know if that's going to be enough to keep us here forever, but its why we came back to being with.

sorry to all those i haven't been keeping in contact with through email.  school, volleyball, moving, and poor internet access are my excuses.  i've been sucking it up in the fantasy football league too.  haven't had any time to learn how to do it so i haven't done anything with it.  lost my last match 126-22.  for those of you who have played fantasy football you know how bad that is.  for those of you who haven't, the appropriate response to that score is...OUCH! 

we're in our new house now and its great.  i've got my Dish Network hooked up and a car in the garage and a three-burner grill on the back porch.  in the midst of the american dream.  we'll see how long that lasts.

hope all are doing well.  talk at ya later.
