August brings all the back to school and start of Fall activities. But we fit in some adult fun too. Mom had a fun dinner with some neighbors to celebrate a book challenge we completed. Mom and Dad finished our Pickleball season. Dad ran a hilly local 5k went to Sunday at the Tour Championship.
Avery (9 years) - Fourth grade is a big adjustment with real grades and weekly tests/quizzes but so far Avery is doing well. Studying isn't her favorite but has become a necessity with 3-4 tests/quizzes a week. She loves to be involved at school and is once again a Learning Commons Leader, showing up early once a week to help in the library. She and dad made the early morning dad's club meeting and she has joined the Environmental Club. She is also now a big kid who meets her friend on the corner in morning to walk to school. Outside of school, she is playing soccer again this Fall with a bunch of the same kids as last year.

Parker (11 years, 9 months) - It's Parker's last year of "traditional" Little League baseball so he decided one last Fall season was in order. He is on the Hot Rods and playing for a the same coach Carter has his last season of Majors (and a good friend). Not one to shy away from coaching, dad is an assistant coach.
Carter (13 years, 3 months) - After experiencing a year of full travel baseball, Carter decided he would rather play on a team with less time commitment and signed up for the Juniors program with Smyrna Little League on the Red Wings. He knows a bunch of the kids playing, his coach is one of our neighbors and dad is an assistant coach. So far he has really enjoyed it!
