Name Change and Soccer Games!

I had the hardest time with changing my name! I just did not want to do it and tried to convince Zach multiple times how Barnes was such a good last name, not necessarily any better than Pasche but just that it possibly was the best last name out there.  But to no avail... he did not become a Barnes and I became a Pasche.
  So off to the Social Security office I went and had a good 2 hour wait.  During that time I started to think about what I wanted my name to be.  Do I want it to be Lori Barnes Pasche? Lorianne Pasche? Lorianne Barnes Pasche? Lori Anne Pasche?  or Lori Anne Barnes Pasche...quite the delima as you may see, but when I went up to choose my next name for the rest of this mortal life I settled on Lori Barnes Pasche.  I love my name, Lori Anne Barnes, and the thing that I realized is that I wasn't really getting rid of Lori Anne Barnes I was just becoming a little bit better.  So even though I am officially Lori Barnes Pasche, I will always be Lori Anne Barnes Pasche, I did not lose who I was by changing my name or my identity or anything I did when I was a Barnes.  I simply became a little bit more by adding something wonderful into my life (Zachary). =)



(First official package just to me under my new name)


Well Zach and I are already back into soccer.  It is crazy how little time we spared not playing, it is where we met and to be honest I bet it is where we will be when we die.
But Zach is on three teams this semester.  He plays for a club team called the Dragons, a competitive team called the Vikings and on an intramural team called something but I forget.  I am on two teams, I am also playing competitive and I am also on the Vikings (girls only though) and I am on the same intramural team as Zach.

So getting back into the swing of things I went to watch Zach's first club game. It was against other dragon players and some alumni, so it wasn't a formal soccer game, but still very fun to watch! Here are some of his clips...they don't do him justice but you can get the gist that he is really very good. (im not bias at all either ;) )

(Unfortunately right as Zach shot the camera ran out of battery, but he did make the goal)
