Early October

Early October still felt like August.  So much so, they boys jumped in the lake one day.  

Isaac dominated in his first soccer season- like scoring 6 goals a game on average and loved it.  It was so much fun to watch- it just clicked and he took off. We were honestly surprised at how easily it came and how well he read the field.  DF was great at Football and his team is undefeated.  Franklin has been such a good coach, encouraging every kid, rotating positions so they get to all have turns learning them and it's been fun to watch that too.  Nora has been along for the ride and a great cheerleader on Saturday mornings ;)

Isaac asked that I come eat lunch with him, so I did and brought him Subway and he thought it was the greatest thing- it was really fun to get to see my boy in the cafeteria.

RazorBasses

A weekend we always look forward to- Fayetteville with Meme and Grandpa!  The Razobacks have had better seasons but the RazorBasses are in a pretty sweet one!  Ikey went to his first game and loved it.  We had a great time and got to see a lot of our buddies.  

DF turns double digits!

This birthday hit me hard- a whole decade of David Franklin!  Gosh how we love him.  We took 10 boys to Third Realm Trampoline Park for his party and I won't lie, I was nervous about it.  Never had so many children without other parents and driving them out of town but it all went well except a flat tire on the way home, but luckily I discovered it by a car dealership and they fixed me up lickety split.  We celebrated you big time and loved it!

County Fair

On my birthday we went to the county fair- it was Isaac's first time and he loved it!  Big kids did too and were both very brave on the big rides!! 

Still laking it!

Can't stop, won't stop.  As long as it stays the never ending summer with temps in the 90s in October, we play on the water.  And even got a date night by boat! 

Nora is a little Cheerleader

Nora got to do a 2 day cheerleading clinic and cheer one quarter at a Lakeside High School game.  She loved every minute of it and especially the big girls!
