Thats a wrap!

Football has come to a close and for Dale this was his last season of "pay to play" he will go on to Jr. High ball next year so we will regain half of our Saturdays.  Both boys played a great season and played hard!  Macy also did a great job and had fun as well.  She was given Little Miss Megaphone, Spirit and Tough Cheer Chick award...

common sense

I took Dale shoe shopping the other day and after one and half hours and 3 stores and a pile of frustration later I ask him "whats wrong with this pair?" as he hands it back to me he said"its the laces they go in and its hard to get it on and off."  "Seriously!!! Dale that's it!  I can re lace the shoes," "What ...Mom why didn't you tell me !"  Wow so we took the shoes I flipped the last lace in the top to come from underneath and problem solved.  I love you Dale but geez sometimes ......you drive me crazy.

We went and hiked enchanted rock...it was really hot but pretty cool. And apparently we broke a law bc walking in the vernal pools is illegal and I was a little nervous on the way down since we kinda forged our own trail on the back side... It was fun but I would have liked to know that we would hit a trail and we did eventually.











We then started the school year and Dale is doing great and is enjoying jr hi. On the first day I was a wreck when I dropped him off neither of us wanted to make eye contact bc if I did I would loose it and I think it was mutual ... So he got out of the car and I lost it ... Really its just jr hi mom get a grip!
Macy teacher is all business but a good teacher. And Reid got who he wanted the cool guy teacher. I am. The room parent coordinator.. And I did my meeting with all the moms so hopefully I am going to be sailing smooth. And should have enough time to blog!!

The boys games have now begun and they are playing hard dales had some rough games but again he is playing hard and is a team leader and enjoying playing with friends.








Reid team is doing on but they are all 9 in a 9-10 league and we only have 15 on the team. He has managed to score each game and is having fun so that's all that matters.











Macy is cheer and is loving it ... I am not involved and think its good, since I think I would suck the fun out of it for her cleaning her up all the time.
Duke and I finished the juice diet and I am running daily with bevo 2-4 miles a day. He is mountain bike riding and loving it and bought the boys mountain bikes and they go all over and together we have lost 100 lbs and kept it off so that's great and we feel great. I do have some tendinitis in my hip and am gonna go see the dr to see If we can aid that without a shot bc I think I'll take the pain over the shot.

Summer was pretty scheduled we had speed and agility every mwf and Reid had a tutor tu th ... I know kinda wierd since he is honor roll but his writing and comprehension lacked a little and we wanted him prepared for fourth. Camp the kids went to mo ranch for camp again and loved it again! That is such a treat for me too the whole week off I loved it. When we picked them up we decided to swim the river and thought the bottom was rock and it was silt and sooo gross but we were kinda stuck so it was a long frog kicking swim but we did it.

Macy and I went and did a girlie day and had pedicures and haircuts... And ice cream she said it was the best day ever.



While we did that the boys went offroading and both drove the jeep .... My thought is if you need a booster and box behind you to drive you are too little but ahhh details

We went out on Bepaws boat and Reid drove that too

Hmm could I BE more behind... In my best chandler from friends voice!! I think not.
So where did life leave me ahh may ... Wow eons ago


So May well Dales football team ended in 2nd place. That kid impresses me on a field he seriously comes into his own ... He's a monster. One of his asst coaches is in 9th grade and a stand out at his jr hi and has said he will make sure the coaches know who dale is and I believe him. Dales head coach also sent the team trophy home with dale after the game to take to the party and said he deserved it for all his work and effort and leadership ... Nice
Dale also graduated from 5th not that there was any doubt or question but mile stone non the less.
Macy and Reid also finished up the year and all 3 are on A honor roll.


Macy played soccer with her best little girl friend and loved it. Her team lost more than they won but it was a good season. Same story for Reid his little team had a lot of never ever players and it showed but he played great and it was a good time and one of his football buddies Gabe was on his team so we got even closer to them.

Oasis of the Seas = amazing
We went on the Oasis of the Seas cruise and it was awesome. Troy and Carolyn and mama Sam joined us.... Great times.



We went on a beach day and did like a wipe out obstacle course, rented a paddle boat and paddle board, which I really liked.


We also went and swam with dolphins which was amazing ! So gentle and smart ... Now the boat ride there was awful and choppy and nauseating... None of us got sick but we did not feel great either. I also managed to talk the picture people down to a reasonable amount in a cash this is all I got plea but thought I missed the bus and kinda freaked since I had no ID passport or money and we were not in the US but it was there just around the corner. Macy also got fussed at by customs bc she only had a swim suit on ... Really it's the British virgin islands... There are chickens running around ... We are not meeting the queen for tea? But I had a cover up for her so we passed.
Duke went deep sea fishing with Troy and he did get sick but they had fun. We were supposed lto go snuba but the kids kinda chickened out and wanted duke there so we just went to the beach and it was good bc it rained that morning anyway.

The boys and I loved the wave maker you could body board on and they got pretty good... Me not so much but it was fun.



We also did the rock wall and we all made it to the top ... Well duke did great but not up all the way.



We also had some friends go on the cruise too and the boys loved having friends there!



We also added a new family member in July. I was going to foster a dog and duke made a good point that we will fall in love and wanna keep it so we just did it and adopted a little pix mix named her Roxie.

Initially I thought bevo was going to hurt her and we had 2 days of chaperoned visits and then turned a corner and there was puppy love...

Now they won't leave each other alone but they are buddies and play rough but it's Roxie who tears up bevo.
