It's Finally Fall


We woke to brisk, cool temps today.  Finally.
It's literally been summer since April.  
Reminds me I have no desire to live in South Florida- I need a respite from the heat. 
Looking forward to fire pits, sweaters, blankets and boots for sure. 

Fall sports have kept us super busy.

Jack has been crazy with baseball, workouts and school... early morning wake ups are his norm now and he actually doesn't mind it.  He puts himself to bed by 9:30 most nights (sometimes earlier) and is drinking muscle milk daily.   I can tell his body is slowly but surely changing and he's getting stronger.  I am very proud of his work ethic.   He has one more week of games and then November it will be slower for sure- baseball arms are shut down.  He also just finished a season of Take on Sports- where he was paired with a special needs buddy.  SO much fun.  Not sure what his schedule will be but I'll take anything less that what he's doing now.   And he pulled straight A's (three honors classes plus art) this first grading period.  

Riley had her first tournament last weekend- her team went 1-3, which was a disappointment.  But Riley played well- scoring once, having several shots on goal and a few assists.  She has improved greatly this past year and I love watching her play.  She's excited to play in a winter league this winter with Weddington girls.  That will be fun to watch.  She has another tournament this week and four more games...  She also pulled off straight A's the first grading period. 

Miss Hadley started her lacrosse clinics this past weekend.  She has 6 Sunday's of lax practice and she loves it.  It's super cute.   I just signed her up for basketball at the YMCA this winter too.  She has been asking to go it so we'll see how it goes.  Wednesday dance class is fun for her as well- not sure if she'll do it again after this year. We'll see.   She is doing GREAT in kindergarten.  She's starting to read and does really well in her class socially and is making friends.  

We are looking forward to the holidays and some down time as a family.  Maybe a little travel sprinkled in too- we'll see.  



























Until next time....
