Dylan got his Bobcat award last night. Its the first step in the long road to becoming a Boy Scout.

Fall Break

We went camping over the weekend. All the way up to VA. It was a good time, though it was rainy and cold.




Today, the kids and I went to the movies. I was a little afraid of how Brady would do, but he did great. We saw Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. It was pretty cute.
Then, we went to the pumpkin patch. There apparently aren't as many pumpkin patches this year (economy, maybe?), but we finally found one. The kids loved running around and looking at everything.

New Opportunity (Hopefully a Good One)

If you like Avon and don't have anyone to purchase from (or would like to change representatives), then check out my new site. I am new to the business, but would like to do well. You can order from the site or just make notes of what you want and email me and I will order for you. You can have it shipped to you (free if you order $30 or more) or have it shipped to me (for free) and I will get it to you.

(Mom, pass this on to anyone in your area. I can send you a couple of books every couple of weeks, if you know some people who want it.)

Got a great deal and, though I wanted to, couldn't walk away from it.

It's Been a While

Not much going on, but so busy. . .

Dylan is getting into the swing of a new school year. Love his teacher. She's wonderful. Good communication. Great with the kids. Right now, Dylan is a little bored and he is getting into some trouble by goofing off when he finished his work. His teacher says he is above grade level; we are working on a plan for him to follow - either extra fun-type worksheets or reading. We don't want him to feel punished for finishing early, but we don't want him to get into trouble either.

Brady has started school. He loves it. He cheerfully says good-bye to me in the mornings and cries when it is time to leave.

While Brady is in school, I am volunteering at Dylan's school. I am enjoying it and he seems to behave better knowing that I am going to be around.

Dylan is playing baseball now. He is doing great. He thinks he likes it better than soccer.

Dylan also joined the Cub Scouts. One of our neighbors is his den leader and he says they are going to do a lot of stuff to have fun and to learn how to grow into responsible men.



Halloween is coming soon and we are trying to figure out what each boy is going to be. Minds have been changed many times.

First Day of School 2009

Dylan had a "fabulous" first day of school according to his teacher's note. He agrees that he had a great day. Dylan really seems to like his teacher and I think we are in for a better year this year. ~crosses fingers~







And one of Brady just because he had to have his picture made too. He doesn't start school until after Labor Day.
