First Blog Post!


I have wanted to start a blog for several years. I always get hung up on trying to make everything perfect, get lost in the details then just give up. This time, I am going to just jump right in and perfect things as I go.

Why the name Suburban Soccer Family? Yes, we do live in suburbia and we are a family that is heavily into soccer for our kids. However, the Suburban part of the name refers to my car, my Suburban that feels like home. I spend a crazy amount of time in my Suburban, carting around the four kids that still live at home to all of their various activities including some insane mileage to and from soccer events. My husband just got a brand new car and I thought I would be jealous. Nope. I drove it a few times and it just isn't "home". My Suburban is stocked. Need water? I always have a case or two in the back. Need a napkin, there has to be at least one somewhere. Need a hair tie, headband, brush? Dig around, you will find something.

The soccer part of the name? All five of my kids have played soccer at various levels. Some play recreational only, some play/have played competitive/club/select soccer. Two of the kids also referee soccer games. This makes for some interesting Saturday and Sunday schedules.

Welcome to our crazy life!
