Many blessings to you all on Thanksgiving!

I hope all of our family and friends have a great day and know how important you are to us. We are blessed with health, home and good relationships to get us through times of doubt. Time with our family and friends is always well spent. Even though we don't see everyone all the time, we benefit from your friendship daily. Lots of love, Missy

Fall...isn't so Fall!


Im not a good blogger. There, I said it. I haven't updated since June. There is snow on the ground, the sun is shining, the fire is going and football is on. Sunday's are fantastic! Im lucky I even get a chance to use the computer since Blake and his Dad have to keep track of their fantasy football crap. Anyway, The two little boys have been playing outside for at least 2 hours and loving it. What they are doing is not my concern. Just as long as both are visual...when I check.
Blake finished basketball tryouts and starts this season next week. Im excited to watch him play again. He gets his skills from his Dad. However, he gets his humor from me and really....isn't that most important? I mean, we are talking life-long lessons here. I love driving with him....hilarious. It reminds me of when I was in high school with my dumb friends.

Chase had a long season of baseball and also starts basketball. After an alarming teacher conference....he has gotten his act in gear and focused a little on his work. What 4th grader doesn't re-group when subtracting because they simply "don't feel like it" In all fairness, maybe in the past 3 years of school he didn't know you can't take 9 away from 2. Really? He and Coop laugh, wrestle and do God knows what 24/7. Cooper really looks up to him and Chase is a great example.

Cooper started Kindergarten!! No phone calls yet! Cooper has actually surprised us and is doing fantastic. Like you said Nicole...I'd love to be a fly on the wall in that classroom. Coop comes up with the most random things. He is in a world of his own. We call it Coopers world, naturally. Connie made them dinner after Kevin took him for a ride on his joyner and Cooper said "I love everything Aunt Connie makes." Every time I or Curt make dinner he says, "I love everything you make, it's my favorite." Last night Kristen made dinner and cooper, again, said "everything you make is my favorite....I love everyone who makes me my food." The point is....Cooper likes to eat.


I hope everyone enjoyed the Fall Season! The Holiday's are here:)
