Happy (almost) fall! I put out my decorations but the weather is telling us that summer is here to stay for now. :) Super hot walks home from school are no fun...so my new bike has been awesome to ride home with Easton, oh and pick up Mel on the way too! :) I have been so lucky to have met my other "walker" buddy and the boys became friends too. They are military so will be leaving at the end of this school year :(
Easton started flag football and has had 2 games so far, our 3rd one is tonight. He has had 2 touchdowns, two 2-point conversions, and 2 flags pulled so far...he was so excited about that because last year that was the one thing he was never able to do.
Saturday morning workout...
Building football games at home depot...
We have decided to slowly tackle our needed home renovations now and then in a couple years when we are possibly ready to build on our lot, our house will be ready to sale at that point. So, we started with our poor little laundry room :) It has been all white (with mixed in brown dirt stains from cleats, muddy kids, and even scuffs back from when we had sweet cosmo) with metal wire since we moved in 10 years ago. It's embarrassing seeing the "before" pictures, but I love how it turned out! And now it makes me that much more excited and anxious to tackle our next renovations. (master bath, lighting/fans...)
The "after" with everything except a mat, sign, and pictures to hang.
I ordered some signs but wanted a picture for that big blank spot...so the next thing I know we are taking pictures at the coin laundry in town :)
Football pictures from Pop's camera...these boys love doing their chest bumps just as much as scoring I think. We also started soccer this week, but no pictures since me and Pop are the coaches :) We will have to put Drake and Nanny on picture duty when games start. I think we are going to have a good/fun season.
Since last time I posted, it was also Easton's 7th birthday!!! I can't believe it. So bittersweet. We decided instead of a party this year to let Easton pick a buddy and take them to the water park and hang all day instead. It turned out great and they had a blast!
Then on his actual birthday, we took him Chick Fil A and cupcakes to his class ♥ So proud of this boy. Mid-terms come home today and he has all As so far in 1st grade. Great job E
So blessed!! Thank you God for these two sweet babies and allowing me to watch them grow and reach their potential through your plan for their lives. ♥
This sweet girl is definitely gravitating towards all things creative. She loves music, art, and dancing so much. She is not shy, gives the best hugs, and loves when I paint her fingernails...but then goes out to run and get dirty with bro bro.
I started at a new gym this week and am excited about it! I already know several of the people there and the kids area allows Emerson to see me and Easton can sit out with us in the workout area, and even do some of the things with me...super family friendly and they start the workout with a scripture and prayer.
Just continuing to stay busy, while trying to stop and remember how good this season of life is right now. xoxo
