Brothers

The bond they have is amazing. Melts my heart when they are so incredibly nice and encouraging to each other. It makes the times they fight disappear and like I never heard the slamming door, lol.

First Day of 5th Grade

Macen wasn't as excited to start back but he came home pretty happy. It helped a lot that he went to this school previously so not everything was completely new to him. 

First Day of 1st Grade

He's pretty excited for school! And even more excited that he will get to ride the bus with Macen each day.

Soccer Tournament

Macen's team played in a tournament already and ended up in the championship game. It took us all by surprise since majority of the team is new to each other. They played great as a team and held the score down. They came in 2nd but I think everyone - coaches, players and parents - were pretty proud.

New Members of the Family

Our home was too quiet with Mo and Myles gone.  So Ace (black) and Ash (gray) are the newest members of the household. Ace has quite the personality and is a busy body always wanting to play. Ash came to us sick and very underweight so he is still catching up. He is pretty calm and is my snuggle bug. They have provided some much needed entertainment. 

Royals vs Cardinals

We couldn't miss the Royals/Cardinals game. The boys got in some playground time and some racing challenges before we headed to our seats.

Lightning Soccer

Macen made the competitive soccer team in Leavenworth. So we are traveling to locations within Kansas City for his games. He will play almost year round now with probably only a month off in the summer.

Zoo Time

We got in a trip to the zoo before the end of summer. We all enjoyed the Red Panda chillin' and riding the Sky ride back from Africa.
