up-date post

Where do I begin. The last few weeks have been so busy. I didn't post the pics from our trip to kokamos a few weeks ago, so here they are.


Drew ready for laser tag!



Bryce ready to shoot his daddy!



Daddy and Bryce on the go carts!




Drew smiling for a picture at putt-putt



Bryce teeing off!



Drew trying to get par.

We also went to dinner then the driving range in Reese a few weeks ago, and yes I even hit some balls.

What a handsome little guy!



Another handsome little guy!


And another!!



Bryce got a hair cut before school starts again. He didn't get lots off, but at least he can see.

Nice hair cut sweet potato!


We went to 1st grade open house on Wednesday. He has Mrs. Church and was really happy. He has a few friends he knows in his class but will also make lots of new friends. They even have their own desks this year. Big step.


We got into the middle school a few times this week so Drew could try his new locker and get things ready for Tuesday. He isn't that worried about this year, since he has his foot in the door already, and mom is much more comfortable this year as well.



Drew had a football scrimmage on Thursday night. They played in Millington, against their youth teams. Although there was no score keeper and no refs, Drew's team won both scrimmages. 12-0 and 18-0. On the first play, Drew was the center and hiked the ball, then he blocked and the quarter back ran up the middle for a TD!


The boys spent the night at "G" and Papa's last night, so Adam and I went to Applebees for dinner then came home to watch a movie together on the couch. What a nice peaceful dinner and movie.


After watching Miss Molly for awhile, I realized she was in heat. UGH Oh fun fun trying to put a size 6 diaper on a 10 month old basset hound. She is actually very good once it's on...but she thinks I want to rub her tummy when I come by her, so she rolls over. Nearly impossible to get a diaper on a dog while laying on their back!!
Molly eating with a diaper on!



My little man is growing up!!! Someone lost his first tooth this morning while at "G" and Papa's. He did make a phone call and tell his he pulled it out, and I was about in tears. I was happy because he had been wiggling it FOREVER, but I was sad because I wasn't there and because he is growing up.

Cute smile with a tooth missing!



Real close up of the hole.



We went to Grandma Bergmans and did lots of work around her place today. I took a few pictures, so here they are.

Alec striking a pose...LOL




Uncle Mike and a friend being men...using the chain saw.




Bryce doing LOTS of raking! What a huge help he was.



Uncle Paul and Dad in the loader bucket (I was on the roof when I took the pic)


Adam is on the roof of the shed, Uncle Paul and dad in the loader bucket. Uncle Mike driving.


Bryce on a ledge in the shed.


Drew climbing down the ladder after hanging out on the roof of the shed.



Working on the shed again. We had to cut part of it down, because it was on the neighbors property.




I do believe thats pretty much all our news as of late. Thank you to the family and friends that ordered from Drew's football sales items!! I will get those items to you as soon as we get them in! Boys go back to school Tuesday! This summer went by very fast, but the boys are starting to get on each others nerves and fighting, so I guess it's time!

Tis the season (ha)

Football practice started last Monday. Last week, they just wore their helmets and cleats. This week, they had to wear all their pads! I went to Drew's first practice with all this, on Monday. I snapped 2 pictures without him knowing, because he told me I wasn't allowed to take pictures or cheer! LOL Moms are so embarrassing! Anyways...here are his pics. Once I get Drew's football schedule, I will post it.

Drew has his back to us, is the middle guy (no number)



Drew's BUTT as he gets ready to block!



Bryce also started U8 soccer practice tonight. His coach is very nice and was shocked at how young Bryce was and how good he was already. He will miss his 2nd practice, because he meets his 1st grade teacher that night, but his coach said, he is just fine missing 1. Anyways, here is his schedule.

Saturday September 6th 11am field 3 wearing red


Thursday September 11th 6pm field 1 wearing gray


Saturday September 13th 10am field 2 wearing gray


Monday September 15th 6pm field 1 wearing red


Saturday September 20th 10am field 3 wearing gray


Thursday September 25th 6pm field 2 wearing gray


Saturday September 27th 10am field 3 wearing gray


Tuesday September 30th 6pm field 1 wearing red


Hope some family and friends can make it to some games. He jumped up a level this year, and is on different fields now! Honestly we will be finding them right along with you, so I won't be much help. He still plays behind St. Lorenz Church just like previous years though. There are goalies this year and ONLY boys on his team, so he will be challenged much more this year!

Drew lives another day

PHEW last night was Drew's first football practice! DANG I wish I would have taken a picture of him after...EWWWW he was gross and sweaty and instantly had to shower. I ran to get some groceries while they were practicing, but Adam and Bryce stayed to watch ( I guess the parents were suppose to stay) Adam said he came over for a drink about half way thru and he wasn't trying hard enough b/c he wasn't breathing hard. He also told him he wanted to quit! When all was said and done, he said he liked it and didn't want to quit. Adam and I kept telling him the first day would be the hardest, that it would get easier to do all the different things, the more he tries them. He survived to go to another practice tonight, and tomorrow and Thursday! lol He has football practice for AT LEAST 3 weeks Mon - Thur from 6-8 then school starts and it goes down to 3 nights, but then games start also. From what I hear...we will be EXTREMELY busy! fun fun

WTG DREW!!! WE ARE VERY PROUD OF YOU!! CAN'T WAIT TO GO TO YOUR GAMES! love mommy

will take a pic of him tonight and post...LOL
