Where did the summer go?

Well, the end of summer came and went in the blink of an eye! The boys are back to school this week and doing well so far. It's always an adjustment...for them, and for me. I find it hard to give them over to "strangers" and I miss them during the day. Both teachers seem to be great...and we're hoping for a fantastic year in 2nd and 4th grade!

I forgot to tell you all about the soccer tournamen in Austin a few weeks ago. It was a very fun trip to take with the team, even though it was so hot. The team placed 2nd overall, which won them a spot in the DisneyWorld tournament in January. We are in full swing making plans to go there and see how we do. Once we finish the tourney, we'll stay and enjoy Disney for a couple of days before returning home.

My landscaping is coming along VERY slowly. I finally have some edging in place and I've researched various plants that I'd like to have. Now I'm just waiting for the weather to cool a bit before planting. I'm sure our neighbors are not impressed with our little project so far...it's not very pretty right now.

I start back to school with staff meetings next week and I get my students on the 9th. It's a very busy time of year...I'll do my best to keep up with the posts. I'll also add Austin and first day of school pictures soon!

Love to all...
