September

Over Labor Day weekend we went to Josh's aunt Veronica's house to swim and hang out.

Josh and I took students on a hike as part of an alternative classroom we did as a school. I always love traipsing through the woods! We got a touch lost (our leader led us astray, but Josh got us out)

September means it's officially time for football and pep band. Ike decided to play football for the junior high team and Dave plays all kinds of percussion for the band. Typically Ike played some kind of defense and he got to punt during some of the games.

My garden was still going strong throughout the month.

I worked hard to make this project for Sophie's 16th birthday. It was so fun to put this together and gift it to her!

My mom and brother came up for a weekend and they got in a lot of golf :)

 

First Day of School

The boys officially started 7th and 10th grade this year! Crazy to think that soon Dave will be driving and Ike is going to be in high school before we know it. They got right back into the swing of things and are both staying pretty busy so far.

Still forcing the kids to go on after school walks with me.

I went with Josh to golf on a beautiful Friday. I enjoy putting around once he gets on the green.

I was gifted a ton of tomatoes so we made up a huge batch of spaghetti sauce. It is so tasty!

Here's a better picture of Dave with the neighbor kids :)
