Summer is Winding Down

Can you believe that it is football season!? I know all my Volunteer friends are excited for the football season. My cousin plays for Clemson, and their season is in full swing. I still can't believe it.

Well, our summer was and still remains very full. Tyler and I did get a chance to go to Chicago just the 2 of us for 3 nights and 4 days. It was wonderful. The boys survived without just beautifully. Thanks to Aunt Trina, Aunt Kelly and Grandma Debby. It was such a great trip for us to enjoy one another and get to play. I laughed at our definition of play. Jeremy and Lacy go indoor surfing and a wakeboard park, while Tyler and Adrianne go to the floor of the commodity exchange and a river archtectural tour. You might think ours wasn't as eventful, but it is absolutely hilarious how heated it gets when the brokers on the commodity floor start bidding of feeder cattle or live hogs. You think I am kidding? And definitely don't miss the river tour of Chicago, just beautiful and lots of great history.

Home front news is that our house is for sale. We loved Chicago so much we are moving there. Just kidding. We told that to my aunt while we were in Chicago and she was home with Grant. The other end of the phone was speachless. Quite comical. Our house is on the market. We have an opportunity to potentially make a move into a family development project, so we are going to see what happens. If nothings goes, then neither do we. The best part of having your house on the market is you learn the habit of keeping everything clean and picked up. The downer is you never know when you have to get out for a showing. With 2 little guys not an easy task to just get out.

The little guys are great. Stone is learing about Jonah at church. He comes home so excited and telling everything the teachers have taught him. The funniest part was he put his little hand up to the side of his mouth, made his voice deep and loud and yelled, "Jonah. Go to Ninevah." Brought his voice back to normal and said, "God told Jonah and Jonah say, "no way, no way, no way." His memory verse is Deuteronomy 5:27. Hilarious when he says Deuteronomy. Grant is adorable. Trying to walk, but not there yet. He is crawling everywhere and pulling up without a hitch. He likes to just yell and wait for you to do it back to him and can repeat this for however long you would like to play. Quite funny! He also go Oh, oh! a lot. Just precious. 2 boys and 2 different presonalities. Next summer is going to be fun!

Well, 1 boy is up from his nap and the other to be up soon. Love to all my friend and family. By the way pictures will be coming. We have this great archival system of our digitals the worst part is my laptop isn't always connected to the storage hard drive. How inconvenient is that...not along take time to type, but now i have to find a usb cord. Being a mommy is hard. :)
