Nothing really. I got the urge to write. Not sure if it is because of the weather, because of a particularly long comment I made on another blog, or because I'm just avoiding work. All of the above.
I have loved blogging about my kids and our lives together so I think I'll continue on.
This raising of the boys is still a constant adventure and wonder to me.
We are in the midst of football season. All three boys are playing so we have practice every night and 3-4 games every weekend. Fun, but exhausting. I'm still slinging bling, and OlderDaddy is still traveling, so keeping it all together and organized is a bit of a challenge.
Some of my dear friends and I have begun a monthly cooking... uh... thingy. Yes. Thingy. That's it. We get together and cook for an entire day and each of us ends up with about 10-15 meals to take home and put in the freezer for the nights that we don't have time to figure anything out. Which for me, is most nights.
OlderOldest is rocking his Sophomore year with great grades, football and the same girlfriend that he has been seeing for a year. That makes me shudder. I like her tremendously, but... it's all a bit serious for a 15 year old in my opinion.
OlderMiddle is sporting a mo-hawk, or what's left of one. It was originally purple and black... now it's blonde and black and looks a LOT like a skunk's tail.
OlderBaby is playing football for his first time this year and became the very first (and likely only ever) Older to SCORE in a GAME! All of my boys are tackle, guards, linebackers etc. They never, ever touch the ball. Until this past Saturday. OlderBaby happened to catch a kind of wild pass and ran it in for 2 points! WOWOWOWOWOWOW! Talk about exciting! It was SO fantastic.
I love this time of year probably more than any other. Though it has been very warm here, today is the first day that we've felt a little chill in the air and it feels great! Time to bake more cookies and breads. The garden is winding down a bit too. I picked what will probably be the last 3 zuchinis today and will turn those in to bread tomorrow or Wednesday.
Life is good. Busy. Happy. Productive. Messy. Fun. Hard. Interesting. Constant.
