Becky is missing the consistently hot temperatures of summer. Every time the temp dips below 70, she bundles up!
Good thing we’ve had such a warm September (and plenty of warm blankets)!

Jim had been begging me for months to take him fishing, and we finally had a spare hour the other night to sneak out to a little stream and see what he could do. Unfortunately, we didn’t see a single fish. But we researched it a bit and he thinks the water conditions were too warm this time of year for trout (what he was hoping to catch). We’ll keep trying!
Five kids in school = Five lunches and snacks to pack. I used to have the kids pack their own lunches, but it was too chaotic on the kitchen. Now I just try to do an assembly line every night after the kids are in bed. Keeping growing kids’ bellies full is a full-time job!
Danny lost his top center teeth a few months ago, and we all are shocked at the size of the new ones growing in! He looks like a big kid with such big teeth!
Susie had to draw a “heart map” for one of her classes where she was supposed to include all the most influential people, places, things and events in her life. I love her heart, literally and metaphorically!
On Danny’s birthday, I told him he could pick anywhere or anything for dinner. He chose Popeyes Chicken, so off we went! He was very happy to eat all the chicken he wanted:
And then when we got home, he opened all the presents he wanted!
Happy Birthday to my sweet 7-year-old cuddle bug. We love you!! We love this game! And I especially love how everyone, youngest to oldest, gets in on the action!
When we had friends over for Labor Day, the boys couldn’t resist having some backyard target practice. I cracked up seeing these little and big boys and their toys!
See that helmeted blur in the picture below?
Yes, that’s my daughter. Becky. Becky is driving a dirt bike. She’s done it several times now and fallen each time (not badly), but she’s gotten up and gotten back on every time. And asked to go again. I can’t even bear to watch her ride it makes me so nervous (I can’t watch the boys either!). I don’t know how I’m going to survive once she starts driving cars. That’s only FIVE YEARS AWAY! Can I make her wear a helmet in the driver’s seat? I don’t normally go outlet shopping, but when I do, it’s typically with my trusty shopping buddy Maria. She has a knack for finding great stuff for great prices! She invited Jan and I to come along on a shopping trip when she was in town, and I was excited for Tazie to join us on her first big-girl shopping excursion! We didn’t buy much, but we had a great time!
Tazie liked trying on glasses best of all!
