A little Labor Day boating....
The sky was SO moody, but thankfully it never actually stormed.
Daulton Dashers started up again and despite being very tired, Colby perked up when he saw the balloon arch out by the track at 6:45 AM.
His goal for the year: run 30 miles!
Friday was Grandparents Day, so Papa went to celebrate with Colby. Grandma wasn't feeling well, but the boys enjoyed their time together.
The weather was surprisingly incredible for September, so we spent hours out front watching the kids play soccer and ate dinner al fresco.
Snuck in a lunch date mid month...I love me some one-on-one time :)
The Activity Day kids enjoyed playing hockey with homemade hockey sticks. At one point, a piece of the PVC pipe flew off a stick and hit me in the collar bone. I thought I was going to cry, but thankfully I held it together.
Some last minute homework in the car before drop-off...
Daulton Dashers with my boy. We went through a few rough weeks where we were butting heads quite a bit, but I've really been enjoying our time together recently. So proud of his commitment to running, especially since it's not his favorite.
I enjoyed a birthday lunch date with my friend Sherry. We almost always go to Salata and I love taking time to catch up.
We took a boat ride on a Saturday afternoon and the water was glassy, so we fully enjoyed a few hours together. Kevin skied, Colby attempted to ski, and then I decided to take a whack at it. I haven't attempted to ski since before we had kids and sadly, I failed. I basically had a nasal irrigation with lake water, so that was fun, haha. I was getting leg cramps and had to stop, but maybe next time.
It was a busy Saturday! Soccer, boating, a birthday party, writing a talk (all by herself), and watching the BYU football game...
Colby's love for his cowboy boots and belt is still going strong...
I was subbing as the primary pianist, so I had a front row seat to Brooke's primary talk. As I sat there, I realized that it would most likely be her last primary talk ever.
Colby completed his " All About Me" box for school...
Brooke has been enjoying time crocheting...
I have no idea why the kids were in matching Daulton shirts since Brooke doesn't attend there anymore, but it's a cute picture regardless.
House Pep Rally...
He even wore Kevin's old little league jacket since it fit the red vibe. Brooke was sweet and offered to carry his backpack while he adjusted his gloves and football.
Thursday night wiffle ball to celebrate Maverick's birthday. Such a fun group of boys! (And I love hanging out with the mamas!)
We came back from our Florida trip (it's own post) and the next day was the third grade trip to see "The Three Little Pigs" at the opera. Colby had fun riding the bus, but didn't have raving reviews about the actual opera. But he sure looked handsome :)
I had a belated birthday lunch date with Danielle and Andreia. Turning 40 isn't too bad when you get to celebrate with great friends!
I took my Activity Day girls on a nature walk (starting at a park) and we lucked out with the BEST weather...
Friday morning Dashers with my buddy! He requested that I stay and run with him again, so this is now our thing and I couldn't love it more.
Brooke was quite the vibe when pajama day and "Anything But A Backpack" day fell on the same day. She was a little embarrassed walking into school and we were both laughing, but the administrators at the door assured her that she definitely wasn't the only one with a cooler.
Went on another birthday lunch with Rachel and Joanna. I definitely felt spoiled with all the fun lunch dates with friends.
Saturday night was spent having dinner al fresco while we watched the BYU football game. Kevin grilled the yummiest tri-tip for tacos and the guacamole was delish!
That time when Colby asked Kevin to help him build a ramp for his bike, haha. It took a lot longer than we imagined since we don't have the right saw (and it turned out more like a quarter pipe than a ramp), but I was still impressed.
The final product!!
It was completely dark at this point, hence the need for a big spotlight, haha. Colby was hesitant to try it on his bike, so he pulled out his skateboard instead.
September was full of activities and fun!
