More and More Cross Country..GO BULLDOGS!!!!

4th race of the season was at Hardin Valley Academy! It was a good course for the kids to run but NOT spectator friendly at all! We saw them run by at the beginning and then saw them run through the finish shoot!!





More Cross Country..GO BULLDOGS!!!!

3rd Race of the season was at Melton Hill Park. It was a good run and we all got some exercise hiking to the course and back to the car!!!! LONG walk!!





2nd Race of the season was at Cove Lake State Park. It was a tough course!! But the girls did great!!!




The Mudroom

We decided to turn our old coat closet into a mudroom. I took pics of the entire process but we decided we only needed one computer in the house so we put mine away. We thought we had backed up all my photos but realized it copied my husbands files OVER mine!!!! So now I have to try to recover ALL my photos off my hard drive. No time for that right now so all I have are pics of the finished product!! We painted it to match the playroom. The inside of the door has basket weave trim. I found the bench at Homegoods! LOVE IT!! I think it came together rather nice considering how long it actually took to complete this "SMALL" project!!!




Brady's First Playgroup

My friend Becky just moved to town and is starting a weekly playgroup. Brady had never been to a playgroup before. He had such a good time and it was really nice for him to be around another little boy!! Hes surrounded by girls! LOL

He enjoyed playing with his friends Alex and Alyssa. Cant wait for next week!!

Cross Country! Go Bulldogs!!!!!!

Abby joined the Cross Country team at her school this year. Tuesday was her first race and it was pouring rain and chilly!! What a way to start the season and her very first school sporting event!!

She did great and had such a wonderful time!

The elementary school girls run 1 mile.
Abbys time was 8 minutes and 42 seconds.

She had fun even in the rain!!! Go Bulldogs!!!!

Its that time again...Consignment Sales!

I am always looking for a good deal! I love to hit all the Fall and Spring consignment sales in town. Its time for the Fall ones now and I am having a blast checking them out.

I went to Jack and Jules first. I didnt really find anything at that sale. I did get Abby some books and Brady some books.

Back to School....3rd Grade!!!

Back to School!!!! Wow, I cant believe summer is over and we are back in school!

3rd Grade here we come! Abby is so excited about:
1. Having her own locker!
2. Changing classes!
3. Running Cross Country for her school!
4. Seeing all her friends everyday!

Not so excited about:
1.Having real grades (A,B,C,D,or F)for the first time.
2.Getting up early.
3.Starting AR's again.

I think 3rd grade is going to be challenging but Abby will do just fine. I have decided to write the spelling words on our chalkboard every week so she has them in her sites everyday! Finally using the chalk board for more than Hangman!! LOL

Happy School Year everyone!
