Finally. It’s not 98 degrees outside and the kids are getting excited about Halloween coming up around the corner.
Time to say Bye! to summer.
Night fishing capped off our last summer trip to the lake.
Michael played in his first Drive, Chip, Putt competition and he’s just signed up for a fall Jr. PGA league. He’s officially caught the golf bug.
The first day of school came out of nowhere. Second grade for this one.
Eighth grade for this one. The real smile took a little prodding…
And fifth grade for this one.
I couldn’t get one decent photo of all three together so…
Labor Day was our last chance to enjoy the lake.
The big kids cleaned out the canoe and took off on a clean-up expedition along the shore.
Our final sunset cruise!
Hank was tiiiiiired. Too much lake fun.
She was saying something like, “Oh Mom, STAHP it already with your camera.”
Gigi and Poppa came in town over my birthday weekend and we took a drive down to Fossil Rim in Glen Rose, Texas.
I got a T-shirt. (Not pictured.)
Brisket was a little jealous that everyone was paying more attention to photo albums than to him so he pinned Wes down to remind him who’s the boss.
For Michael’s 11th birthday, he wanted to go to Top Golf which made everyone happy.
Aside from being a little embarrassed by how his little brother swings a club, Michael had a great time.
It’s Year 3 for the Candy Cake.
There’s Brisket again, making sure everyone knows he’s Top Dog.
In a couple of weeks, we’re heading to Austin to see an F-1 practice day and catch an Imagine Dragons concert. It was hard to tell if Michael was more excited about the weekend trip or the Purple pillow he wanted so badly.
The U14 Rockets are back at it for the fall season, playing other U14 teams as well as U15 and U16. The beginning of the season was rough but they are really hitting their stride the last couple of games. Love to watch them play!
Henry now envisions a future as a basketball star.
We have very high hopes for his eventual career.
It was a 97-degree day in October, but we enjoyed the chance to watch #4 round the bases for the Grapevine team.
