Fall Baseball

Colton with Chad Bell - He ADORES Chad. Chad was on the traveling team Dusty coached in 2003 & now plays ball in Washington for the Texas Rangers minor league team.

Playing on the playground

You can probably tell, but I LOVE watching my little boy play baseball! He has improved so much over the past few years & is becoming quite the ball player. He loves the game & it shows.

Lake Day!

The kids & I went on my friend Mike's boat for a final outing for the summer. It was Kenleigh's first boat ride & she LOVED it! She just kicked back & enjoyed the ride. Colton had a blast, too.

UT Game

Dusty & I headed out to the UT / Oregon game. It started out AMAZING with UT up 13 - 0, but then turned interesting. First, a major storm came through & they cleared the stadium for over an hour. I got stuck in the bathroom - the walkways were so crowded, no one was moving. I finally got through & back to our seats. By halftime, Oregon had tied the game 13 - 13. I won't talk about what happened in the second half :) But, no matter the outcome, I still support my team -

1st Soccer Game

The Lady Lightning had their first soccer game of the season. It was interesting, to say the least. Reminds me a lot of Colton's first Upward Soccer season. Of the six girls on the team, only two show real interest (Kenleigh being one of them)! It was hard to get four girls on the field at all times. Kenleigh seemed to enjoy it - she likes playing offense better than defense - doesn't like to take the ball away from another girl! I look forward to seeing how much they improve over the season.

Back to School

Our summer is over & the kids have gone back to school.

Colton is in 3rd grade this year. The first day of school, he was so excited he got up at 6:00 (45 mins early) & got dressed on his own!! He has a new teacher this year, but she seems GREAT. He is SO excited to be back in class with Will, the very first friend he made at Rocky Hill.

Kenleigh started Pre K this year. I can't believe she will be in Kindergarten next year! We are looking forward to a great year. She is in class with Will & their teachers, Ms Karen & Ms Kathleen, were Colton's Pre K teachers & taught at Preschool the same time Mom did.
