It has been a long time...where did summer go?












There is so much to share about our adventures since June.  We had a fantastically fast summer!  Baseball season finished up in early July.  All three of the kids had great seasons.  It was a lot of hot days and nights in the dirt, but everyone had fun and developed their game.  The kids and I went to Montana the first of July to visit the Kerr's.  It was a beautiful trip!  Jeremy traveled a lot for work and had to stay home to be in the office and bond with little Olive.  :)

School started incredibly early this year.  Knox started preschool 3 days a week. Maison began 3rd grade.  Carson started 5th.  He also goes to the middle school every other day for Prealgebra.  He is really loving it.  I began my new job at the high school.  Olive learned to survive the day without  us.  She currently weighs 61 pounds loves people, digging, chewing and eating. She is such a happy pup.  When she wags her tail her whole rear end shakes...so cute!

As we enter the fall sport season, Knox has started soccer.  While he was really nervous at his first practice, his first game was today and he hustled his tail off. After the game he said, "That girl that scored all the goals used her hands to push and you aren't supposed to use your hands in soccer. She cheated!"  So funny!  Maison is playing on 2 select teams this year and working as hard as ever.  I am so proud of her work ethic, good attitude and love of competition. Her hard work has payed off and she was named Captain of one of her teams! Carson is QB on the football team again and plays Safety on defense.  He is convinced he will be an NFL player some day.  Jeremy is coaching football and LOVES it!  We both thoroughly enjoy watching the kids develop the spirit of competition and desire to do their best.  
We are so lucky!
