Fun times with the girls tonight bouncing between Stayton and Sprague after they got done with school. Still running all over the place after 8 years. Crazy ride so far doing it now with two kids and Natalie starting sports this past school year and Liv being a hyper infant haha

All this work I do, running to games and covering them, I do for free (seriously) for this main reason: the kids deserve it that I rather do it for free cause that's how much I care. I may not be the best, but I'm always out here grinding doing the best I can.
